Process

How It Works

Four steps to funded. Typically 30–45 days from submission to disbursement.

01

Submit Your Project

You share key facts about your project — location, collateral type, loan amount and timeline. We review every submission within 3–5 business days.

02

Underwriting & Due Diligence

We do independent appraisal, full title and lien search, KYC/AML on the borrower, and a preliminary feasibility review. Focus on collateral quality and exit path — not bureaucratic checklists.

03

Fideicomiso Structuring & Close

Your property is transferred into a Fideicomiso de Garantía — a Dominican real estate trust. Funds are held in escrow and released after first-ranking security is perfected at simultaneous closing.

04

Loan Service & Repayment

Monthly interest only. At maturity — repayment through sale, refinancing, or other agreed exit. We map your exit strategy before the loan closes, not after.

Eligibility

Built for
Dominican Developers

Small and mid-sized Dominican developers are our core segment. We focus on project quality and collateral, not on the size of your company.

Legal Structure

How the Loan
Is Structured

All CRBC bridge loans are secured through a Fideicomiso de Garantía — a Dominican real estate trust under Law 189-11. An independent licensed fiduciary holds your property in trust during the loan term and returns it upon repayment. Funds are released only after the property is in trust and all title conditions are satisfied. The constitution and extinction of a Fideicomiso are fully exempt from the 3% Dominican property transfer tax.

FAQ

Common
Questions.

Land acquisition — secure land before permits or senior financing are in place. Construction bridge — advance vertical construction once presales support execution. Refinancing — replace expensive local or informal debt with structured USD capital. Equity release — unlock capital from completed assets to fund the next phase of development.
We focus on Dominican residential and mixed-use projects in established or emerging submarkets, as well as select hospitality or commercial assets where real estate fundamentals, collateral quality and exit paths are clear. Typical loan sizes range from approximately $0.5–10M per transaction.
For qualified projects with complete documentation, our underwriting and closing process typically ranges from 30–45 business days, depending on collateral complexity, title work and trust structuring.
The Fideicomiso de Garantía is a Dominican Republic real estate trust instrument under Law 189-11 (2011). Your collateral property is transferred into the trust during the loan term, administered by an independent licensed fiduciary, and returned upon repayment. It enables non-judicial enforcement without court proceedings. Under Article 45 of Law 189-11, the constitution and extinction of a Fideicomiso are fully exempt from the 3% Dominican property transfer tax.
CRBC lends at 13–18% p.a. in USD (indicative, deal-dependent). An origination fee of 2–4% of loan principal is charged at closing and deducted from loan proceeds — you receive net proceeds after the fee. Fideicomiso setup costs ($6,000–12,000, estimated) are for the borrower's account and are not deducted from CRBC proceeds.
Not necessarily. CRBC lends across three collateral tiers: raw land (40–45% LTV), land with permits or material presales (55% LTV), and completed property (up to 65% LTV). Presales improve your LTV and therefore the loan amount you can access — but they are not a requirement for land acquisition or equity release transactions.
The Dominican Republic is the largest economy in the Caribbean. Mid- to upper-tier real estate projects are predominantly USD-priced, which makes USD lending a natural fit. Local banks do not offer USD construction loans to small and mid-sized developers — CRBC was built specifically to fill this gap with an institutional framework and enforceable collateral.
Punta Cana / Cap Cana — resort residential and hospitality. Las Terrenas · Samaná — boutique luxury residential. La Romana · Casa de Campo — ultra-luxury segment. Santo Domingo — urban premium residential and commercial. Sosúa / Puerto Plata — north-coast resort and residential.
