The Dominican Republic's real estate market once again stood out in the eyes of the world with the recognition of real estate agent Ariel Grasso and his team as number 1 worldwide for the third consecutive year within the RE/MAX organization.
The distinction was awarded during the RE/MAX International Convention held in Las Vegas, obtaining the highest recognitions in the categories: TOP 1 – Closed Transactions Large Team Worldwide and TOP 1 – Gross Commission Large Team Global, corresponding to the performance of the year 2025.
The RE/MAX network brings together more than 140,000 agents in dozens of countries, which positions this achievement within a highly competitive context. The Dominican team was also included in the "Top of the Top" group, made up of a small number of teams with the best performance globally within the brand.
The award given in an auditorium of more than 5,000 people from all over the world was not only an individual recognition for the team and the leadership of Grasso, but also a reflection of the dynamism of the Dominican real estate market, especially in hubs like Santo Domingo and Punta Cana where, despite the slowdown and uncertainty of the real estate market in 2025, the commercialization of projects under construction and properties oriented to investment continues to attract international interest.
"Being number 1 in the world is not by chance; it is the result of discipline, constant measurement, and a team that works with the same vision. At the same time, it is a source of pride for our country, demonstrating that from a small market one can compete at the highest international level and raise the standards of how real estate is done in the region," said Ariel Grasso.
This new recognition consolidates the presence of the Dominican Republic as one of the most active and attractive real estate markets in the region, in a context where foreign investment, tourism development, and urban expansion continue to set the pace for the sector's growth.
