Many of these new developments in Jamaica are way over priced, including this. I'm not impressed one bit....there is no wow factor. The kitchen is poorly designed. ..no hood or extractor...so where does all 5hat food scent goes? I have been looking at new developments in the eastern parts of the Dominican Republic, mainly Bavaro^Punta Cana, and those projects would blow many of these new developments in Jamaica out of the waters any day. Plus the prices are way more affordable. Some of these developers need to take some serious notes
Price very steep...I was also wondering about the hood vent
Yes. The development is DR is much cheaper and designed better
@@noblegirl1991 Jamaica is a vibe, it's the people, the food, the scenery.
DR maybe tropical but they can't compare to what people experience going to Jamaica.
Jamaicans are original.
Jamaica has the strictest building codes in the Caribbean.
This is one area where bribing is not tolerated.
They not going to be demolished if there is a hurricane.
It's electric stove. They don't need over head venting.
In Jamaica people open the windows and kitchen door when cooking. That's natural ventilation.
@@robhaye it's electric range plus it's natural ventilation in Jamaica. They open the kitchen window and door when cooking.
I am going to say this AGAIN- Jamaican relators are NOT there yet! You guys keep failing to mention the important stuff- the bylaws, the maintenance fees, the property taxes, whether the property has an association, whether there will be security on site, the amenities (other than the pool) included, what services and amenities are nearby, etc.
$217000 USD for what must be the location please people look for better option.
This is not America,,sometime we get too Americanize,,,the next thing you gonna ask is if the subway close by are if you have to shovel your own snow..these are not elaborate 300 unit condos Mr Johnson..the realtor said 9 unit...
@@peterhall6460 😅😅😅 not the subway
@@peterhall6460 Thats rich, considering they're quoting the prices in US currency. LOL
@@smileorange8465 same thing Im saying
The surroundings and the building on the outside are really nice but the units aren't that great in my opinion. They are just plain - kitchen design is plain and bathrooms are also plain. There's no wow factor on the inside to make me spend USD217gs. I get that they might have been going for a minimalist contemporary vibe with clean lines but yet they have louvre closet doors? More could have be done re unit layout and style. These developers want big bucks yet they are not bringing the pizazz! They are just selling you a box painted in white.
These developers need to watch HG/TV to get some ideas why do,t they stage the place they are presenting .There is no wow factor the kitchen and bathrooms are too plain .Please get your act together.
They can keep it. Too much crime and scamming in Mobay.
I'm thinking if to buy a house in Mobay..where criminality and scamming is high..for almost 50,000,000. dollars
might as well buy a pc a land in Portland
build a 4bedroom , 3 1/2 bathroom house and still left change....
the art of conning, scamming n overpricing in this country is alarming..
kmt
For the price this should have given a wow factor
Why pay so much money and still have to improve on it?
It's Iron Shore. It's a very expensive are in Mobay. These are sea view units. That comes with a price.
A who unnu a try fool cho man
why the hell the breaker box showing in the middle of the entrance? that should be in the laundry room, or hidden somewhere else.
Code specify the approximate location where it should go. I wanted to put mine in the garage and the builder insisted on installing it in a prominent location to which I said Hell No! It was placed out of sight on a hallway wall.
@@RoyD450 wow thats crazy, why?
@@Chris_oak80in case of emergency easily access...
@@jaunbonaysmith you can easy access to t in the closet. Why the hell they worried about emergency when there are grill bars all over doors and windows?
For security purposes, I don’t like the frosted glass door with the frosted glass next to it. I rather have a solid metal door and no glass next to it but keep the glass above the door 🚪
Why not put the prices in Jamaican dollars, is there a reason why the prices are not Jamaican dollars?
There's something about J$32,550,000.00 that's just a little overwhelming.
They will say due to exchange rate. Furthermore I think its convenience to say us dollar, as Jamaican dolla would come across like its a lot of money.
Clearly not marketed to anybody earning in Jmd is why.
They aren’t trying to appeal to the locals.. its all for the investors. I live near Sugarmills and I can guarantee you most of these places are still empty.
I love how they say it’s back on the market haha could not close the deal because it’s too over price and for what ? Lol
Did you ever bought things before, and NOT know the price before you agreed to buy them?
I am curious!
All these uns...storage make no sense right all those storage are there because the house spoil so they just turn the corner dem that left out in storage
As someone who is studying Architecture and building technology, those were exactly my thoughts.
I can build a multi bedroom house for less
Same
Oooohhh. I love this! 🤩The rooms are quite spacious that's a plus!!
Sophisticated tenement yard.
So what happened to Jamaican $ ? Is it condemn?
They are for returning residents and retirees who are likely to pay cash.
I really enjoy watching property viewers, presentation on point and it's always great houses!
We appreciate that!
Truly beautiful houses & location...!!! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
At some point, the Jamaican real estate market needs to understand, that home prices are set by the market in which the home is being built and not by having an open concept floor plan, these people watch some HGTV, copy everything including the price, while forgetting the per Capita income in American is $60,000usd & in Jamaica is $5,000.
Ridiculously overpriced home for what it is & where it's at lol.
These are for diaspora and expats
@@noblegirl1991 yea that is clear, developers in other parts of the world build houses & apartments for expats and they're still not that far outside the norms of the countries real estate market, this is more just Jamaicans thinking whatever applies in American applies do Jamaica, if they were building apts for high income individuals that would be different, but these aren't that, we can't say these are for expats so let's just add an insane markup.
In economics there something called supply and demand if they weren't selling like hot cakes, developers would have to reduce their prices. I am not saying they aren't expensive, however if they can get people to buy them at high prices, they will sell for high prices
Their target market are returning residents and retirees who have money from pensions and 401 K.
They are selling out
This is Iron Shore in Montego Bay which is one of the most expensive areas in Mobay.
Their target market are retirees, returning residence, wealthy Jamaicans who need a second home on the island.
It's location, the Jamaican vibe and it's people that determines the price. Location, location, location. If these were in rural Jamaica they would be less expensive.
Apartments are more expensive in Jamaica too because young people don't want the maintenance of large homes as their parents did and they are safer to live in. Jamaica does not manufacture housing materials exceot for cement. That drives the price up too.
If these were in Malibu, California, Florida or the shores of NJ they would be $1,000000 USA with nothing to do but eat at restaurants.
In Mobay there is a lot to do.
Presentation is great 👍 👌
Beautiful houses and excellent presentation as always.💕🇬🇧👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you 💐
@@PropertyViewers 😢 Stop quote prices 😑 in us 🇺🇸 we Jamaican 🇯🇲
The townhomes are lovely. I noticed there is a cooktop, but no oven.
I love the presentation
For the price, there should be better fixtures in the apts. Nice presentation.
I think it will be cheaper given the coming recession. They are nice but Montego bay had no private beaches, you have to go through one of the hotels. And MB is over rated really.
Gorgeous.
Like it but not the ideal place to call home. Just to spend a few days I love natural light. I can't get this from such close up unit. Not impressive with the one bedroom at all. All the best to the new owners. View not bad for the second unit.
To me it is way over price the average person in Jamaica 🇯🇲 cannot afford these units 😑
Not just Jamaican people in general. This is way over priced, there seems to be building issues. It's like a white box.
I can't help but to noticed that a lot of these developments are overpriced, and what's with not including a bathtub in 90% of these houses and apartments, great presenter by the way.
Who takes a bath in a tub in Jamaica. Lol 99% of people takes showers. Tubs are for bathing babies and they can purchase a baby bath and use a hand held shower to bathe the child
People are aware of the fact that , Jamaica 🇯🇲 does not cater ( when it comes to houses like these ) for ordinary working class people. These houses are more for scammers and people dealing in drugs. It’s sounds a way but it’s a fact.
I notice that there is a community pool and the elevator that serves the entire community. How much is the maintenance? 🤔
Not boo boo the fool, rather purchased in the south in the States
Very nice townhouse. My only concern would be, there is no venting over the stove. Also the front door is glass. Can’t see through it. I would much prefer a wood or metal door.
New subscriber!
Thank you and welcome to the family. 🙏🏽❤
Bathtub and eating area please…Also, don’t want to wash dishes while facing the wall.
Beautiful houses and flawless presentation. Love the many storage options, but the price is not in my budget any time soon 😁
It was build with a certain kind in mind.
@@noraallman9194 that not a respectable answer it comes off very bias. And if this is made too be basis that bad business
I often wonder WHO is buying these houses? Arw they foreigners? Chinese or indians? WHO can afford these?
Why are price in American dollars?
Should not be so expensive to live in an apartment in the caribbean.it for relaxation not corporate settings within 30 miles.. who will pay that much there to share front door
Some apartments in Mobay just hit different... This is nice tbh😍😍
One thing I don't understand is why don't we just change our currency to American dollars since buying property is in USD . Plus the amount spent on this townhouse is the exact same as buying single unit house in first world countries .
Like the units, would you please say if the windows and doors are impact rated for hurricanes? Great to have all the windows but certainly would like to know for security and convenience.
And who is the supplier of the windows and doors?
Where does one dine? There is no dining room and nowhere to sit around the island. Poorly designed and overpriced in my opinion.
Overpriced!!! Limited square footage, way too much hardscaping. What is the deal with these developers in Jamaica?
Beautiful Townhouses but extremely overpriced. Our currency is JA dollars, why are they priced in USD??. The units are not completed, example…… stove top, no oven; lots of closets space and no shelves.
Still gorgeous.
Nice but it should be fully furnished and I don't like the window in the shower But overall good views
The elevator should not be outside like that...if in rain or windy weather the entire hallway there will be soaked up and people will drag all that water into the elevator space...or all the rain from the storm will flood up the elevator shaft...
classy
Love the unit but I think we should stop u those door for the closet and put solid door it make the place look cheap
Storage...🥰 who don't love storage don't like that
When house prices cost this much the country should have the infrastructure to match. These homes are 2x overpriced
Also, what is the current monthly maintenance and what does it cover? With an elevator the price will only increase.
Wayne Bishop come here please...I promise u that when you purchase one of this unit I won't increase maintenance fee for use of the elevator.....Now, are you in or out in buying a townhouse?
Nonsense. There are cheaper and safer places to invest it. Looks like a doll house. You have got to be kidding me.
Dolly house indeed 😮
Why is it that any properties that are listed or featured from Andrew Duncan is so bloody expensive and waaaayyy overpriced?
Beautiful as u rightly said . How many people can afford them ? The prices are way out of reach, which do not have to be, people are over doing it. RUBBISH!!!!!.
Why he quote USD
in thge two bedroom unit how is it that the walk in closet is bigger than the bathroom? and i dont like the fron doors just reminds me of a shop space , its just a step above basic for that amount of money i expected more.
Nice presentation but the entrance to the main floors units there's no privacy, through an hallway to the unit's, also where's the hood range to extract the cooking odour, no window. They should have finished the others closets spaces. The building itself is too tight, no wonder these unit's especially on the main floors are back on the market. Its good for a short term airbnb.
Too pricey.
Lovely homes but please remember to cover your out door shoes before stepping inside,didn’t like the idea of stepping on the shower floor in your out door shoe, keep a box of disposable footies at all times at the front door.
Exhaust fan is needed for the stove.
I totally agreed with you
I totally agreed with you
Where is the stove in the 1 bedroom
Love the show have watched for a couple years now....just one question....why yuh always a walk inna di people dem showa wid yuh shoes on....mek mi cringe 😂😂😂
Can you tell me where on sugar mill road exactly this condo is ?
Nice space but entirely too much white for me. I don't remember the mention of any paint color options.
Who do they make these houses for. The place is like a hospital not attractive at all and I can just imagine how pricey this is.
Wish yall would do furnish apartments/homes... this blanks canvas not wrking for most viewers
Andrew doesn't answer his phones.
These rooms are not designed properly so much doors for no reason , How about a 1/2 bath at the entry.
Very nice indeed ! Why do call it unit as to a flat or apartment ? It’s just that unit sounds more like an industrial building than a home to me
Every Townhouse or row house have units. Meaning the entire building shared the same building number, except for different unit numbers. The design of the house is y they captioned it Townhouse, it could not have been captioned as apartment, because it is not....and it is definitely not a flat.
@@badniss336 Ok ✅
For that price! There was no wow factor. It's just basic. The frost doors made me think it was an office space. The many storage areas though good made me wondered if they had spaces left over after getting in the primary areas of the house so they used what was left for storage. They should have used some of that storage for a half bathroom that way you wouldn't need two entrances to the bathroom. And why is every developer now adding two entrances to the bathrooms? Though it seems convenient it leaves very little privacy in the bedroom. No windows in the kitchen or laundry area, what's up with that? I love how spacious these units are but the design is very poor, the fixtures are basic. Great presentation though, you always present well.
Great video, very detailed and the construction models are lovely, spacious but the prices 😔
facts
Why so expensive
Cabinets should go all the way to ceiling for enough storage you can't sit at island to eat your need additional eating shelf. Living area small for island living its too small
It's like my apartment size
I notice new build in Jamaica is not spacious but then price matches the states why????
IS IT JUST ME THERE'S NO.. MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM.
There's no mirror and wonder if they expect the buyer to install it or they will be doing so. Also, what's up with having just one bathroom...you and your guests/visitors using the same bathroom. For the price, at least a half bath/powder room would be nice.
I am sorry, it's not worth the price; these apartments are not aesthetically pleasing, I am just being honest.
I totally agree with you
At these prices, what's the point in having a second home in Jamaica. Just keep the money and stay at a resort of your choice for the few weeks out of the year that you will be there.
Ahahahaha oh really dude, is these people real, these people think every Jamaican a scammer, these places are way over prices, I can see why most people turn to criminality, these so call developers tun dem in a criminal because dem hype and bossy, so dem go get money anywea it dea !!
in north america you can a 2500 sqft three bed room with basement for that price
Andrew pants a gwan deh tho. Him happy to see her 🐱😂
Who are buying these overly priced dwellings, foreigners or locals...🤔
No body
How much are they?
Is this development close to the Whitter Plaza in Ironshore?
Hi, yes it is.
@@PropertyViewers Thank you. Will be in touch regarding any future development for purchase as part of my 3 year plan.
Yes
Dont worth the price.tek man fi fool.
These so call luxury homes are so basic. The presenter is lovely though.
Thank you 💐
When I can get a house in US for $330,000 I'm going to buy 2 bedroom townhouse in Jamaica for that price???
The crime city mobay
It's kinda disturbing seeing all these properties being quoted in USD only :/ worse since its not worth that much.
Then the government wonders why so many Jamaicans are leaving yearly. Particularly the educated Jamaicans.
Like rich people alone cyah run a country. Too much "luxury properties" and not enough decent homes.
And I am saying this as an expatriate in the UK :/
These town house don’t worth US$300,1700
25:25
I have a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom basement, 2 car garage, laundry room, living & separate dining room, kitchen, den, office, spacious yard, community pool & gym.... all for 300 thousand USD, .. I wld rather buy land in jamaica and build my home than pay what y'all are quoting.. unu too tief man!!! Kmt
Wow!
aerofire
so how many billions in jamaican money
Not impressed at all
People complaining about price. You all don't think inflation hit Jamaica too. What are you comparing the price to . Look how much you pay for north American house and it's not real concrete. Lots if the people who complaining cannot afford it so they find excuse
You can build a concrete house for $50usd/square foot in Jamaica hence why people are complaining about prices. The most expensive cost in building a home in the U.S is labour and Jamaica labour is very very cheap hence property prices are way overpriced on the island and not worth it.
Can you post a contact information for the supplier of the windows and doors? Would appreciate that information
@12yardman Hi, usually the developers ship in those items in bulk. However, you may contact the realtor mentioned in the video he may be able to assit you.
Investment property. The economy in St. James is bad and tourism wages low. Therfore these are targeted at the diaspora. International assets chasing local assets.
No good house
Go no further, the lever for the kitchen sink is turned wrong over the sink and not to the side as it should. Now come on Nigeria and Ghana came from behind and will blow all away. They are getting ready to clean up on the fees all over jamaica.
Wow! This is ridiculous. Overpriced, not worth the money..
Why are the houses so expensive in Jamaica? Surely you are not selling to the Jamaicans on the island. You are only selling to foreigners, to be specific Europeans or the rich. Many Jamaicans in the Diaspora are middle to working-class people who left Jamaica because of hardship. They can barely afford to maintain their standard of living in their present country and than much less afford these prices.
These developers are on drugs? My mother in law bought a 10 bedroom house in Massachusetts and she paid 300k ,plus I can get that same apartment in expensive NYC for less
Wow! Tell us more.
Land space could of be bigger😂 not worth it!!
OVER PRICED!
Small swimming pool, no gym, no play/common area; over priced.
