Finding A Place

Information on where to find houses to rent/buy is often hard to come by for many Jamaicans. People of different ages and stages of life are seeking a place to call home. In the past, you needed a ‘link’ to hear about anywhere that was renting. Luckily, many solutions have been developed in recent years.

Note: Many of the Real Estate Websites have similar features

Get Keez

The Get Keez website offers a variety of properties to rent and buy, and you can even add your own listing. You can even buy land. This website allows you to filter your search for a property based on: rent/sale, property type, parish/state, number of beds, number of baths, and minimum or maximum price.

Features of each listing are provided by the website, and it has a mortgage payment calculator.

Jamaica Classified Online

Jamaica Classifieds Online is an online marketplace that allows you to purchase…basically anything. People list real estate for sale and find places to rent. It’s important to be cautious since people have listed properties they do not own on the website before.

Following Jamaican Classifieds on social media is a great way to stay up to date with listings.

Expand your search

These options should help you find a good place to rent/buy, but don’t let this list limit you. There are Facebook groups, Instagram pages, and other sources that you can seek out. Many of the Real Estate websites obtain information from the Realtors Association of Jamaica. You can also ask friends, family members, or associates if they know of places being rented/sold.

There are some great Instagram pages with houses for rent/sale. I recommend House For Rent Jamaica.

Sometimes the information you seek is in a place you least expect it.

NOTE WELL: Jamaica has seen a significant surge in rental scams over the past few years. For a detailed look at this trend, watch this report from CVM TV below:
