In my market there are transfer tax obligations.

Most people think you need to own property to make rental income.Not with midterm rental and corporate housing arbitrage..Here’s the play:➡️ Lease a 3+ bedroom house for $2,500/month➡️ Legally sublease it to relocating families for $5,000/monthThat’s $2,500/month in cash flow (before utilities).With utilities ranging $300–$500/month, your net cash flow is still $2,000–$2,200/month.That’s $24,000–$26,400 a year per house from a property you don’t even own.This isn’t about chasing tourists.It’s about providing real housing at 2–3x the profit of long-term rentals — without the headaches of Airbnb.I teach people how to do this step by step, just like I’ve done myself:✅ Securing landlord partnerships✅ Setting up properties the right way✅ Attracting reliable tenants on autopilot➡️ Connect with me for more strategies on midterm rental and corporate housing arbitrage.

Your idea of having a different business model (mid-term for corporate people) is in the same vein and is a great one but I wonder how big that market is given the structure of the economy in Punta Cana.

Managing turnover smoothly, finding reliable tradespeople, and setting competitive yet profitable rates are all part of the formula.If you want to compare neighborhood performance or rental estimates casually (no obligation!)

I spent 15 years in corporate sales, but was tired of having a traditional boss and got myself into a solid financial position to be able to do so without taking on the stress of a commission-only career (as someone with a wife, a mortgage, and two kids). 

Sometimes people only look at the gross rent or mortgage, but when you factor in vacancy, maintenance, utilities, property management (if you ever outsource), and tax implications, the picture looks different.Also, since you mentioned possibly building in the side yard, it might be worth mapping out your financing and timelines so you can see which option keeps your monthly obligations lean while still moving you toward your long-term portfolio goals.

This in no way stops the Corporation being taxed as a Dealer.

favorite tenants are large corporations that pay like clock work such as a starbucks.Strategy is to buy key high traffic locations with nearby anchors. 

Quote from @Mario Garcia: but how is the obligation enforced in a lease purchase???

That class was basically a semester-long discussion of S corporations, LLCs and trusts.But back to the two random comments:1.
