if you buy in the right area of kingston you cannot lose...we don't have real estate bubble in jamaica...

I know a few people who have bought I also know a few developers who have built but I generally see people in the diaspora , returning residence. I have also seen business people in the hotel sector who have purchased multiple units to use for staffing mostly in the North Coast areas.. I cant speak for Kingston. If X is saying the market is inflated it might be as at the end it is supply demand. In some cases some are over priced in my book but that is where common sense comes in, I also see some which are good value.

X most of these are bought by people in the diaspora. Why don’t you invest in one.

That's your story ,I spoke with several developers and am speaking with them presently. Banks can't buy outright ,they financed deals that present that option thereby hold a interest by financing.

Comprehension: The banks are financing Airbnb coffins . The few that can buy don't equate to the volume being built ,so even if the few can buy ............Yuh get it ?
They are betting on the pandemic opening up that expats/ forgein buyer market.
Seem like a bubble to me .

Not making a point asking questions if it's good for the banks to be financing these gated communities for Airbnb and buying them out at the same time. They project a demand but what if they are wrong ?
This is not for the middle class , 2nd 500 sqft is called a studio in NY ,doesn't matter where in NY. You guys selling that as a 1 bedroom..
Prices are based on neighborhood like anywhere and projected future value ( gentrification).
Some win some loose,seems risky for the banks,good for investors and construction workers bad for the middle class.

Pricing the poor and middle class out of aforable housing to service a tourist market. Shows the demand for tourism in Kingston is there. That's good, opens up the service industry.( Sarcasm)
Clown 🤡.
