Hi,

My name is Reynold. I plan to build a retirement home in las Terrenas.

I am in the process of acquiring the land.

I heard it鈥檚 better to build your own instead of buying an already built one as the contractors have a tendency to cut corners by using cheaper materials and labor.

We're looking for Pat Lawler, an American expat, 77 years old, living in the Las Terrenas area. If any of your members have information about Pat's health and whereabouts, we'd appreciate learning about it through this forum. Or they could tell Pat to email his son.

Thanks,

@meb9992 :

This thread has been created for the introduction of new members.

For you search, I would advise you to post an ad in the Testimonies, lost items, missing people in Dominican Republic section. It is more appropriate.

Thank you,
