Dean Jones was invited on RJR this morning to discuss a reality most people are not talking about.

80% of homes in Jamaica are uninsured, and most of the rest are underinsured. The hypothesis is simple: Jamaica doesn’t have a housing problem, it has a risk problem.That risk is being carried by the very households least able to absorb it.The conclusion is clear: when disaster hits, recovery is already uneven.Read the full piece: https://www.jamaica-homes.com/p/80-of-homes-uninsured-in-jamaica

This text examines the global reach and economic significance of the Jamaican diaspora, highlighting that millions of citizens and their descendants now live across the world. Prime Minister Andrew Holness’s visit to New York serves as a focal point for mobilising international expertise and investment to aid in the nation's recovery following Hurricane Melissa. Statistical data reveals a significant shift in migration patterns, moving from the United Kingdom’s Windrush generation to a modern concentration within the United States and Canada. Beyond cultural ties, the diaspora provides vital financial support, with remittances accounting for a substantial portion of Jamaica's national gross domestic product. Ultimately, the source argues that Jamaica has evolved into a "global nation" where progress is inextricably linked to its people residing overseas.

This podcast examines the economic pressures currently defining the Jamaican real estate market and argues that delayed purchasing often leads to higher long-term costs. Rather than experiencing typical market crashes, property values in Jamaica tend to stabilise and then rise due to limited land availability and consistent demand from the diaspora. The text highlights how global inflation, rising oil prices, and supply chain disruptions directly increase local construction expenses and mortgage rates. Ultimately, the author suggests that waiting for a market correction is a risky strategy, as the cost of financing and materials is projected to climb. Consequently, the narrative frames the current climate as a fleeting window of opportunity for disciplined investors to act before further price escalations occur.
