The Housing Agency of Jamaica (HAJ) broke ground recently, for the construction of its third housing development of the year in Portmore Villas Phase 2B, St. Catherine. Approximately 130 one-bedroom units (described as starter homes) are to be built there.
‘Starter homes’ are best described as units that have basic amenities, and that allow home owners to expand when/if their finances allow. The units will reportedly be sold at a median price of J$1.2 million.
According to the HAJ, this project is just one part of their aim to provide some 10,000 housing solutions for potential homeowners by the year 2013. In addition to this Portmore Villas development, it has already broken ground on 56 two-bedroom units at Stadium Gardens, St. Andrew, another 49 units and eight lots in Luana, St. Elizabeth.
