Secured loans in Santo Domingo

From the Distrito Nacional to Santo Domingo East, North and West: if you own a vehicle or a property in your name, you can use it to back a loan.

Respaldo RD lends directly in Santo Domingo: against a vehicle from US$3,000 (also to buy one with a down payment) and against property from US$15,000, up to US$75,000, over 6 to 24 months. To apply you need your cédula and the details of your collateral (the vehicle’s matrícula or the property’s title).

Financing at the capital’s pace

In Greater Santo Domingo most of the applications we receive come from people who need capital quickly without selling what they own: the colmado owner stocking up before December, the professional consolidating high-interest credit cards, or the family finishing the second floor of the house in Los Alcarrizos or Villa Mella.

With a Respaldo RD secured loan, we look mainly at the value of your car, SUV (yipeta) or property and at your ability to repay. That opens doors for self-employed people and for incomes a traditional bank doesn’t always know how to assess.

Collateral we often see in Santo Domingo

  • Everyday cars and SUVs, including vehicles that work on ride-hailing platforms.
  • Business pickups and vans delivering to the Merca Santo Domingo, free zones or distribution routes.
  • Tower apartments in areas like Naco, Piantini, Bella Vista or Evaristo Morales, usually with a surveyed (deslindado) title.
  • Houses and commercial premises in Santo Domingo East, Herrera or along Avenida Duarte.

An important detail about titles

In older neighborhoods of Santo Domingo East and North, many properties still have a constancia anotada (an annotated share of a larger parcel) instead of an individual Certificado de Título. We prefer surveyed titles, but a constancia doesn’t always rule you out. If that’s your situation, say so in your application and we’ll tell you what options exist.

If your application doesn’t fit our criteria, we can refer you (with your consent) to partner lenders.

Frequently asked questions in Santo Domingo

Do I have to visit an office in Santo Domingo?

Not to apply: everything starts online or on WhatsApp. If your application moves forward, we arrange the inspection or appraisal and the signing with you, usually in Greater Santo Domingo.

Can I use a vehicle I drive for ride-hailing platforms?

Yes, and it’s useful information: if the vehicle earns income, say so on the form. We take it into account when assessing your ability to repay.
