watching now…. absolutely breathtaking!
nice work HGTV will take everything u got ….
I love this show! I look forward to seeing this episode featuring my favorite island Dominica. I especially like the Northern part of Dominica, which to my understanding was the main focuss of the show.
That’s my ultimate dream episode on House Hunters International.. I DVR every new show.. I will be watching,,,
Eh?…the couple at Toucari are from England but her name is Kate not Fiona..she and Andy have been in DA several years
Great publicity for the beauty of Dominica
I watch that show every day, and i was hoping some day Dominica would be on,
thank you HGTV very much.
I am not a Dominican. But I am sooooooo excited. I LOVE everything Caribbean. I also LOVE this show. Have already set a reminder in my BB. Looking forward to seeing it.
I am so happy HGTV is showcasing Dominica.. i have waited for this day because i love that program.
Sorry … also to say that ANY TV coverage for DA is good.
wait a moment. These two … Andy and Fiona already have property here. In Toucari. They have a small house there and have visited the island many times They know it well.
Why were they chosen for this then?
Even the TV is corrupt these days.
So what if they have property here already. This is advertisement for DA and we will take it when we get it. Stop being so closed minded and look at the bigger picture.
Actually you are right. Any good news … is welcome.
“these two already have property here” …duh!!! the show was filmed in March so obviously they have already chosen the property, the show will be aired after they have acquired the property and will also show you how well they have settled. Be happy that Dominica is getting some exposure at least!!!!
If you want to buy a house you just call the show and they film the process, you could have 10 houses already, or be from where ever. You just apply to do it on the show.
Looking forward to seeing it! I want to see what the market is in Dominica. I want to invest in property there as well.
I love this show. Can’t wait to see it. Admin please give us a reminder.
Admin, please give me a call or email me on the 28th LOL . A reminder
ADMIN: If you are willing to pay, no problem. lol
Me too, Admin. lol
I watch this show!! I love this show!!!
Cant wait. So thrilled. Love it when my country gets internationl recognition (of the good kind).
Admin, please give us a reminder. Thanks
MOI LA….
chupst, Dominicans cant afford to buy land for ex pats coming in and paying top dollar for houses.
We have no real estate market as folks ask what they think a property is worth, based upon years and memories, rather than the cold hard fact that it is bricks and mortar and has a true value.
Most folks at a 4:1 exchange are laughing at us.
You have two self contained apartments it is not a “house” it is apartments, sell them separately.
??????????????????????
Nudibranch
??????????????????????????????
-What is your problem?
I purchased a house and some land from a real estate agent and was more than happy with the service I got.
Be glad that the rate of exchange £Sterling to the EC$ is 4.1. This allows people to come to Dominica and get value for money. As they are non nationals if they buy they’ll pay 20% of the value to the government as alien tax, so before they have moved in they would have already started to contribute to the economy.
There are not enough people in Dominica. We need foreigners so that the island can continue to develope and go forward, so as long as they are decent law abiding folks, just say ‘welcome’.
You will always find someone with some negative comments. Grow up and think before you post your negative thoughts.
