Dominica: The Minister of Housing, Lands and Urban Development, Melissa Poponne-Skerrit has announced the sale of 250 pieces of land. These lots will be sold at a below market price, between $5 to $10 XCD per square foot. This initiative is introduced under the slogan “Buy to Build - Build to Join,” encouraging the citizens to purchase land and build homes in the country.

Wide range of locations available

The Government of Dominica is offering up lots of lands which are located in several areas across the island. These include - Hillsborough Gardens, Joe Burton, Jimmit, Plat Ma Pierre, Roseau, Warner, Union Estate, Canefield East, Cotton Hill, and Grandbay.

Notably, the large range of locations gives buyers many choices, from those who prefer to live in the city to those that prefer a more rural setting. This initiative is focused at supporting community growth and national development.
