Kingston, Jamaica — Jamaica’s real estate sector is showing signs of renewed momentum, with data from the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) revealing increased buyer engagement during the first quarter of 2025.
According to the MLS, 553 properties went under contract between January and March, representing a combined value of J$27.6 billion. Apartments led the segment, accounting for 173 pending deals.
Industry experts say the figures suggest that buyers, both local and overseas, are re-entering the market after a period of caution.
“The market doesn’t sleep; it shifts,” said Dean Jones, founder of Jamaica Homes. “Buyers don’t disappear—they recalibrate, waiting for a window where opportunity feels within reach.”
