Introducing a Revolutionary Housing Solution in Jamaica

DM Equipment Limited unveiled its groundbreaking prefabricated modular homes in May last year, with only two units sold to date – one in Lucea, Hanover, and the other in May Pen, Clarendon. Despite the slow uptake, the company remains positive about the prospects of these innovative homes in Jamaica.

1. Convincing the Skeptics:
   “People are sceptical about new things. We are still trying to convince people that it’s a house that can be for them,” explained Joshelle Campbell, project manager at DM Equipment. The idea of modular homes as a viable living option is relatively new to Jamaicans, which is why the company is facing resistance in the market.

2. Partnership and Pricing:
   DM Equipment, in collaboration with Smart Haves Distributors Limited, offers a 420 square-foot, two-bedroom modular home at $6.5 million. This cost excludes utilities installation, transportation, and other associated expenses. The homes can be assembled in just two days and come with a one-year warranty, with a projected service life of 50 years.

3. Materials and Mobility:
   These modular homes are constructed using a mix of concrete, wood, metal, glass, and vinyl. One unique feature is the mobility of these units – they can be relocated to another site if the owner desires. However, buyers must own land to place the home on. Transportation and offloading costs vary based on the distance and terrain. For instance, the unit in Lucea incurred an extra $1.2 million due to its location and topography.

4. Market Impact and Future Plans:
   While modular homes are more affordable than NHT residences, it may take time for them to gain traction in the low-income housing market. As the company works towards promoting the advantages of these homes, Campbell emphasized the importance of expanding awareness through increased advertising efforts.

In conclusion, the introduction of modular homes in Jamaica signifies a shift towards more innovative and cost-effective housing solutions. As DM Equipment perseveres in educating the market and overcoming initial hesitations, the potential for these homes to provide sustainable living options for Jamaicans remains promising.
