In New York, USA, Banco BHD inaugurated its BHD Real Estate Fair for the second consecutive year this Friday, aimed at Dominicans residing there, with the participation of more than 20 construction companies and real estate agencies that will present housing projects in plan, under construction and ready for delivery located throughout the territory of the Dominican Republic.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by Sonia Guzmán, Ambassador of the Dominican Republic to the United States; Jesús “Chu” Vásquez, Consul General of the Dominican Republic in New York; Steven Puig, President of Banco BHD; Freddy Simó, Vice President of Indirect Sales; and Shadie Tineo, Head of Community Affairs at the Institute of Dominicans Abroad (INDEX).

“Today we return to New York with a renewed conviction of the importance of homeownership for people. It represents a sense of long-term stability and security, and this fair is our way of demonstrating that for BHD, it is also important to help people achieve this dream, this future they so deeply desire. The Real Estate Fair is part of the Bank's commitment to the Dominican diaspora, with whom we have been working for several years,” Simó stated during his welcoming remarks.
The fair takes place in the Radio Hotel event hall in Washington Heights, from September 27th to 29th, 2024, from 10:00 am to 9:00 pm.
Attendees will find general information and financial education on how to access housing in the Dominican Republic, provided by the organization, according to a press release.
He emphasizes that attendees will also be able to learn about social housing projects, high-value housing, and housing in tourist areas in the Dominican Republic, presented by the construction companies and real estate firms that have come together with their offers.
Last July, Banco BHD exclusively sponsored the first real estate fair organized by a Dominican company in Spain. Arenal Inmobiliaria provided Dominicans residing in Madrid and nearby cities with information and advice on real estate projects in the Dominican Republic and mortgage financing. More than 750 people attended the event over its three days.
