their is no water shortage in the area. those land used to be Plantation so they have their own water irrigation, because of that the national water commission didn't setup the water system cause there wasn't any community nearby that needs water. now national water commission is putting in the infrastructure to fill that water needs
Its always good to be aware of the cons, so that people can have all the information they need to make an informed decision,before purchasing a property,which for most people would be the biggest financial decision of their lives. Keep up the good work. ✅✅✅✅
This was excellent advice. Thanks! We have been contemplating selling our property and buying something on the coast but I think we will wait until the recession hits.
Glad it was helpful! However, I wouldn't consider it "advice". They are just points to consider. I also have a video on 10 reasons to the contrary in my video "10 reasons to buy a unit at Paradisiac BC" th-cam.com/video/hxrHjfqDhYA/w-d-xo.html Please remember to subscribe for more content like this.
I have been talking about the bubble and upcoming recession for the last 2 years and people have been saying there is no bubble this time and its different from 2008. Realtors have been tricking people and telling them buy now because it will never go back down. People dont realize realtors are mostly just sales people and most of them have no clue about history economics. Every time there is a housing boom a recession or housing bust follows. Now its happening and the mainstream media is talking about it. Sorry for all those people who rushed and overpaid over the pandemic.
@@sugadre123 I completely agree. I live in Canada and the houses in my, very sought after neighbourhood, have gone from approx. $600 to $700K a few short years ago to $1,5 M to $2,5 M. I have realtors knocking on my door saying they will pay me cash down for my house. To which I respond and where am I supposed to live. The old adage of if it looks and sounds too good to be true, it probably is rings true. I am sorry for people who will struggle and have to sell at a loss because they cannot afford rising interest rates.
@@nicki66 Yea I also live in Canada so I know what has been going on. And the worse is yet to come. I work in I.T and many companies have started layoffs now. Hope it won't be too bad but it looks like its setting up to be a serious recession as they cant lower the interest rates again because the inflation is so high. I was also in Jamaica a couple months ago and things are even more expensive there than in Canada. Its crazy
Great video, always look forward too your updates. Oh and the real estate market aspect it will only get more expensive from here on out. look at Hawaii, Barbados, Bermuda, (Island) wise etc. as an example. Look at all the developments in jamaica in areas that are considered sort after price have doubled.
All that is said in this video is is true ...but that's how development goes.. I am a proud owner of a house in Richmond just down the road from this development... And if I had the money I would buy one in this development right now..... You can't lose
Thanks for watching. Haven't really looked at it as yet. Will note it down and include it as an area to cover in an upcoming video. Please subscribe and click the notification bell to be notified when that video is out.
Bro, this development has its target market so your points on price and deposit are unfounded. Buying a house off plan can be an investment in its own right, the price will increase substantially when complete...some investors cash out then and move on. Don't think your points will deter anyone in that target market. Respect tho

You have to evaluate the pros and cons !! To make an informed buyer's choice when purchasing property !!! If it all goes wrong you will still be paying a very expensive mortgage therefore people must always do their research carefully
You obviously can't read or you don't know the definition of an hater, the man also have a video on the 5 reason why you want to buy one of these units, so how is he a hater ?
Why are the units so expensive? The island of Jamaica is prone to some big ass hurricane at times. Will there be a reputable insurance company to insure such enormously expensive houses in that tiny island. All that glitters is not gold. Having personal knowledge of the First Richmond Estate, which is an absolute beauty, the high maintenance fees on such expensive units will be impossible by the time they are build. Multi millionaires will not buy due to the high crime in St Ann's. Not very far from your site a dead body was found in the bushes. Will people be safe in St Anns
I have friend who started with 54k down, and if he had ot the resources he woukd have lost alot if he could not come up with 47k additionally. Some of these developers and service companies are very deceptive. Trod wisely, and for those who take offense to this video, they hate truth and openess

This is how you tear down the country without realizing it.

He isn't. Just giving information you should consider. He is right; the price is astronomical even for Jamaicans living abroad. Can you afford a $160,000 downpayment? It's unlikely that you could afford the total cost of this house irrespective of which country you live in.
