Can Portmore Solve Jamaica’s Housing Crisis? | Housing Crisis Part 4 (2021) | TVJ News

As housing costs continue to rise in Kingston and St. Andrew, more Jamaicans are looking to St. Catherine, particularly Portmore, for more affordable options. In this third part of Housing Crisis, we look at Portmore’s transformation from a major housing solution outside Kingston into one of Jamaica’s most densely populated communities. The segment examines the development of Greater Portmore, new housing projects in Shooters Hill and Catherine Estates, and efforts to make homes available within the National Housing Trust’s financing range. The programme also examines demand for NHT housing, the supply of affordable homes and the challenges facing Jamaica’s efforts to expand homeownership. #HousingCrisis #JamaicaHousing #Portmore #StCatherine #NHT #TVJNews #JamaicaJamaica News Today - Television Jamaica (TVJ) a Trusted Source for News, Sports & Entertainment.
