Buying Jamaica Property
|
Jamaica property can be a good investment but time spend researching the market is always time well spent.
If you don't live in Jamaica this means linking up with a local information source and a local realty company, and that means going online and finding some starting points.
We don't give advice about buying Jamaican property, neither do we promote one realtor over another but we can point you in the right direction and help you get started on your search.
Below are five websites that should give you enough information to get you started on your hunt for the perfect piece of property. To repeat, we do not promote any realtors or Jamaican companies, but believe these six are a good starting point, for you to gather information and start looking in all the right places.
Please Note: When searching Jamaica property listings online, make sure you understand which currency is being used. Prices may be in $US or $Jam. As of January 2008 exchange was about 75 Jamaican Dollars to 1 U.S.Dollar BUT please check the currency exchange tables carefully!
