La Altagracia (Punta Cana, Bávaro): 30 construction licences in September

NULLPEN · Source published 9/30/2026, 11:59:59 PM UTC

MIVHED's open dataset lists 30 construction licences in La Altagracia province in September 2026, covering 131,090 square metres with a declared investment of RD$8.1 billion. That is 15% of the country's licences that month. The province includes Higüey, Punta Cana and Bávaro. Municipality with the most licences: Higüey (29). A licence is permission to build, not finished construction, and the investment is the applicant's declared figure.

Why it matters

La Altagracia is where much of the country's tourism property investment is concentrated.
