    Ooooh I certainly can confirm that it takes looooooong to get your mortgage! Ridiculously long! You can get a loan or mortgage approved in max 3 weeks abroad some even just by putting numbers and application online whilst it takes up to a bloodC. Year to get your mortgage thru in JN yeah defo 6 months should be in your calculations 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ And make sure you have references lined up, and not normal references it feels like you need to be close friends with the PM to get a bank account in JN. The rules are ridiculous! Beyond ridiculous! But they wait soon competition will arrive and slap all the traditional banks with their 100yrs old rules slapped out their thrones. Ps: I love your vibe

It’s common in Portmore. I don’t know a full list of areas but you can actually buy just land in places like Cedar Grove and Hellshire. I have a whole series on my channel detailing various stages of the process from the platforms I used to find properties, how I got a mortgage, building, etc.

    Nice project. However a couple things stood out. That’s a crazy amount of thinset on the floor. Also, maybe they laid them short but I’m wondering if horizontal steel was used between the blocks. Many stirrups weren’t bent properly and some were made using too much steel. Edit: No ventilation in bathroom🥹
