We Show Up So You Don't Have To
👣 Site Visits Scheduled or Unannounced
We begin by formally introducing ourselves to your contractor as your authorised independent audit representative. After that introduction, our visits may be scheduled or unannounced the contractor will know we are watching, but never exactly when we are coming. We inspect progress, take timestamped photos and video, and report directly to you.
🧾 Invoice Verification at the Hardware Store
We go directly to the depot where your materials were purchased and independently confirm what was actually bought, at what price, and in what quantity — so your invoices reflect reality.
📊 Clear Progress Reports In Plain English
Every visit produces a written report with photos, findings, and a plain-language summary you can share with family, your attorney, or your bank. No jargon. Just facts.
🚨 Red Flag Alerts When Something Is Wrong
If we discover a problem materials substituted, work done incorrectly, or contractor access denied you get an immediate alert via WhatsApp and email so you can act before more damage is done.

You've Heard the Stories. Maybe You Lived One.
Receipts Don't Add Up
You're shown invoice totals for materials, but trade discounts applied at the hardware depot don't always make it back to you — and without an independent check, there's no easy way to know.
Work Stalls With No Explanation
Progress reports dry up. Calls go unanswered. Your dream home sits half-built while you're thousands of miles away with no idea what's really happening on the ground.
No One to Trust on Your Behalf
You can't ask a family member they're too close to the contractor. You can't fly down every month. You need someone professional, independent, and firmly on your side.
Your Money Goes Missing
You wire funds for foundation blocks and roofing iron but months later, the site looks untouched. The money is gone, and so is your contractor's sense of urgency.
Invoice Price Variance Identified
You're quoted one price, but the final invoice shows another. Without independent verification at the depot, these hidden markups bleed your budget dry over time.
A Real Story From the Diaspora
"I sent £40,000 over four years to build a house in Westmoreland. When I finally flew down, the house was a shell with no roof, windows, or plumbing, and the contractor had disappeared. Four years of savings gone with no evidence. If Ohana Jamaica existed then, I wouldn't have been robbed."

"Sending money back home to build should be a joy not a source of sleepless nights. Every week, diaspora families lose tens of thousands of dollars to projects that were never properly supervised. That stops here."George Morgan, Founder, Ohana Jamaica Limited
