Inside a Richmond House for Sale | St. Ann, Jamaica

[@nataleehall7670]

It's beautiful. I love the inside as well as the outside. Loads if space everywhere. Love it

I love the outside of this property. Inside not so much. I don't like the washing machine in the kitchen.

[@tonytee2107]

Lovely home, nice yard space, but washer in kitchen and a covered garage does not justify $460K.

[@certifiedslay2469]

Its overpriced. I think the client ignored the realtors advise. Its a tactic to drop the price if no one is buying. The lots are currently $280,000usd so it should not be priced more than 10% worse if this is not a new house An inspection and appraisal may drop the price but the avg jamaivans do not know this like ppl in the usa

[@michelelewis-mx4ty]

​@@certifiedslay2469That is actually the average price for these homes because of the demand. Our homes r mainly cnocrete unlike board in USA so they r much stronger. Many people Airbnb them and can a lot from that.

[@edithmarjoriemartin-rf2vl]

$350k the most

[@sprintcritic8639]

People are complaining about the price of this property. However, the reasons why this property isn’t worth more is because it’s in Jamaica, and Caucasians who can afford to buy it do not want to live in a predominantly Black community, if this property is in a mostly Black community. There are also many African Americans who can afford to buy this property. However, they may not want to live in Jamaica. Read my post below that I left in one of the other comments. Hi I’m African American, and I had a house built in the U.S. that is worth $500K. It’s in a suburban area in the West. It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a two car garage. However, it doesn’t have a private beach, or a beach in the state, and it isn’t in a gated community. Believe me, this type of property, at this price, would be off the market in 1 minute if it were in the U.S. 🇺🇸

[@sandycalder454]
