I’m a returning resident in my 30’s and I have bought/own several properties both new development and resale since 2017 here in Jamaica…..as a result, I’ve learned so much and love to share what I learn with others….if you ever need to speak with someone from the perspective of a returning resident buying real estate in Jamaica….hit me up🙂.

Goodness Throp, You are not making it easy for for me to stay in Atlanta. Are you trying to get all of us to Jamaica?! This is beyond fantastic. Love the interview and love Margit's candid honesty.

God has really blessed me in allowing me to start my transition back to Jamaica in 2017. She is absolutely right about the real estate market. It has exploded. I was so happy to be able to travel there during covid. The freedom, food and fresh air was amazing,

Are there credit checks in Jamaica 🇯🇲 like in the US with credit bureaus or is it that you just need to have the requirements that were mentioned in the video and that serves as the “credit check”? Is there a fee for the surveys and other services that are done once the deal is accepted by the seller?

@Throp

2 жыл бұрын

Great questions. Jamaica does not have as robust a credit scoring system as the US. Loans are largely based on your income. If you have Jamaican assets such as land or property there are opportunities to borrow against them. Yes there is a fee for the survey as well as having a valuation done on the property. Both will be the responsibility of the buyer. These are completed before the deal is closed. These are requirements from any lending institution.

If you need financing you have to provide a recent survey and evaluation. Costs depend on the size of the property and is borne by the purchaser. If you are a cash purchaser you don't need any of that but it is recommended to do a boundary check. Also done by a surveyor. We don't do a credit check when we see your name on the bank statement, the banks will do if you need financing.

If you have cash to buy land you only need a lawyer, then get you TRN get planning drawn up and start building once the parish council give the go ahead
