    Jamaica Looks Up

    This article from the Jamaica Observer explores a futuristic vision for vertical urban development on the island to address limited land availability. Author Dean Jones argues that moving upward must involve more than just height; it requires intelligent building systems that can autonomously manage seismic activity, fire safety, and energy efficiency. These proposed "thinking buildings" are designed as self-contained ecosystems where residents can live, work, and even produce food within a single structure. By integrating advanced sensors and sustainable technologies, the author suggests Jamaica can bypass traditional construction mistakes and build resilient communities. Ultimately, the text advocates for a national shift in mindset toward high-tech, high-density living to ensure long-term economic and environmental stability. https://jamaica-homes.com/2026/02/16/jamaica-looks-up-why-i-wrote-vertical-living-reimagined/ 🌞 Welcome to Jamaica Homes 🏠Jamaica Homes is about people, family, and finding your place in Jamaica. 👉 Subscribe and comment “I subscribed” — we’ll reply. 🏡 Explore With Us Website: https://jamaica-homes.comBlog: https://jamaica-homes.com/blogNews: https://news.jamaica-homes.comProperties for Sale & Rent: https://jamaica-homes.com/properties 📲 Connect With Us Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamaica_homesYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JamaicaHomesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JamaicaHomescomLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/JamaicaHomesTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/Jamaica_Homes 👤 Follow the Founder Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realtordean_jamaicaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/iamdeanjonesLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deantyronejonesTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@realestateontherock 🏠 About Jamaica Homes Five years ago, my family and I made the move and turned Jamaica into home.

    Why Your Unique Jamaican Home Isn't Selling

    This podcast from Jamaica Homes explores the unique complexities of the Jamaican property market, emphasizing that local real estate requires a different approach than international models. It provides strategic advice for homeowners facing a sales plateau, suggesting that stagnant listings often result from market cycles or cultural nuances rather than a failed agent. The text highlights the importance of pricing accuracy, creative marketing, and the emotional connection buyers seek in a home. By advocating for patience and resilience, the source encourages sellers to view their properties as singular expressions of identity rather than mere commodities. Ultimately, it frames the selling process as a collaborative partnership that relies on strategic adaptation to find the right buyer. 🌞 Welcome to Jamaica Homes 🏠Jamaica Homes is about people, family, and finding your place in Jamaica. 👉 Subscribe and comment “I subscribed” — we’ll reply. 🏡 Explore With Us Website: https://jamaica-homes.comBlog: https://jamaica-homes.com/blogNews: https://news.jamaica-homes.comProperties for Sale & Rent: https://jamaica-homes.com/properties 📲 Connect With Us Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamaica_homesYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JamaicaHomesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JamaicaHomescomLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/JamaicaHomesTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/Jamaica_Homes 👤 Follow the Founder Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realtordean_jamaicaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/iamdeanjonesLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deantyronejonesTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@realestateontherock 🏠 About Jamaica Homes Five years ago, my family and I made the move and turned Jamaica into home.

  4. Can Shell Apartments Solve Jamaica's Housing Crisis

    Can Shell Apartments Solve Jamaica's Housing Crisis

    A Kingston-based investment firm, Different Capital, is proposing a shell apartment model to improve housing affordability in Jamaica. These units feature completed structural exteriors and essential infrastructure, but require buyers to finish the interior interiors themselves to reduce initial purchase prices. By removing developer mark-ups on fixtures and finishes, the initiative aims to provide a more accessible entry point into homeownership for median-income households. While the model offers financial flexibility and personalisation, its success depends on whether local banking frameworks and regulators can adapt to unfinished residential properties. This shift reflects a strategic attempt to address rising land values and construction costs within the Jamaican real estate market. Ultimately, the concept seeks to align property delivery with the incremental way many families traditionally manage their financial resources.

    Building Jamaican Skyscrapers With Digital Brains

    This article from the Jamaica Observer explores a visionary shift toward vertical urbanism as a solution for the island’s limited land and growing population. Author Dean Jones argues that future developments must transcend basic building codes by incorporating intelligent systems, such as seismic isolation and autonomous fire suppression, to ensure long-term resilience. The text envisions self-contained sky communities where residential, commercial, and agricultural spaces coexist to reduce the strain on national infrastructure. By adopting predictive technology and integrated green energy, Jamaica can create sustainable high-rise environments tailored to its specific tropical and geological realities. Ultimately, the source advocates for a national mindset that prioritises sophisticated, high-tech engineering over mere architectural height.

    How AI Agents Make Skyscrapers Obsolete

    This article from Jamaica Homes examines how artificial intelligence and the rise of remote work are fundamentally altering the global and local commercial real estate landscape. The text suggests that as digital tools take over administrative tasks, the traditional necessity for massive office towers is declining, potentially impacting Jamaica’s prominent BPO sector. Consequently, developers are encouraged to prioritise flexible, mixed-use designs that can adapt to shifting professional needs over time. Despite these technological disruptions in the workplace, the source emphasises that the fundamental demand for residential housing remains a stable and essential anchor for the economy. Ultimately, the piece advocates for strategic foresight in urban planning to ensure that future buildings can evolve alongside human behaviour. https://jamaica-homes.com/2026/02/12/are-we-designing-a-future-without-offices/ 🌞 Welcome to Jamaica Homes 🏠Jamaica Homes is about people, family, and finding your place in Jamaica. 👉 Subscribe and comment “I subscribed” — we’ll reply. 🏡 Explore With Us Website: https://jamaica-homes.com/Blog: https://jamaica-homes.com/blogNews: https://news.jamaica-homes.com/Properties for Sale & Rent: https://jamaica-homes.com/properties 📲 Connect With Us Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamaica_homes/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JamaicaHomes/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JamaicaHomescomLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/JamaicaHomesTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/Jamaica_Homes 👤 Follow the Founder Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realtordean_jamaica/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/iamdeanjones/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deantyronejones/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@realestateontherock 🏠 About Jamaica Homes Five years ago, my family and I made the move and turned Jamaica into home.

  7. Post-Hurricane Taxes Squeeze Jamaican Homeowners

    Post-Hurricane Taxes Squeeze Jamaican Homeowners

    Following the economic devastation of Hurricane Melissa, the Jamaican government has introduced £154 million ($29.4 billion) in new taxes to stabilise the national budget. These fiscal measures target sweetened drinks, tobacco, and alcohol, while also increasing the General Consumption Tax on tourism and the Environmental Protection Levy. The report highlights how these changes may reduce disposable income for households, potentially delaying essential property repairs and improvements. Additionally, the rising costs of imports and transport are expected to impact construction logistics and the affordability of entry-level housing. Ultimately, while the policy aims for fiscal resilience, experts warn it could squeeze profit margins for small-scale rental operators and slow activity in the real estate market.

    Buying Jamaica's Abandoned Concrete Skeletons

    This article explores the growing trend of purchasing and restoring dilapidated or unfinished houses in Jamaica as a strategic pathway to generational wealth. It highlights how properties priced under JMD $20 million offer market access for buyers willing to navigate the complexities of structural renovation and legal due diligence. The text emphasizes that success depends on rigorous professional inspections of foundations and "bones," rather than being swayed by aesthetic potential alone. Readers are cautioned to account for hidden infrastructure costs and to maintain a significant financial buffer for unexpected building challenges. Ultimately, the source frames these investments as more than just financial ventures, suggesting they serve to uplift local communities and establish long-term family stability. This guide serves as both an investment roadmap and a realistic appraisal of the discipline required to turn ruins into valuable assets.
