More than 7,000 Jamaicans attended this year’s staging of the National Housing Trust’s (NHT) Home It! Expo, underscoring the appetite among people for trusted guidance on buying, building, and financing a home.

Held in Montego Bay, St James, on July 3 and Kingston on July 11, the expo served as a one-stop shop, bringing together major players from across the housing industry. Individuals were able to access mortgage readiness assessments, free building plans, and general product advice from the NHT.

Additionally, attendees also benefited from free workshops and expertise from other service providers, including financial institutions, developers, contractors, real estate professionals, home furnishing companies, and renewable energy providers.
