Are there credit checks in Jamaica 🇯🇲 like in the US with credit bureaus or is it that you just need to have the requirements that were mentioned in the video and that serves as the “credit check”? Is there a fee for the surveys and other services that are done once the deal is accepted by the seller?
@Throp2 жыл бұрын
Great questions. Jamaica does not have as robust a credit scoring system as the US. Loans are largely based on your income. If you have Jamaican assets such as land or property there are opportunities to borrow against them. Yes there is a fee for the survey as well as having a valuation done on the property. Both will be the responsibility of the buyer. These are completed before the deal is closed. These are requirements from any lending institution.

If you need financing you have to provide a recent survey and evaluation. Costs depend on the size of the property and is borne by the purchaser. If you are a cash purchaser you don't need any of that but it is recommended to do a boundary check. Also done by a surveyor. We don't do a credit check when we see your name on the bank statement, the banks will do if you need financing.
