The prices in that area are not too far off the prices in the USA or the UK, I will properly visit Ghana in the future as I continue to search for a African country live out my retirement or senior years and Ghana is on the list, however the infrastructure concerns me at my age.. Your very hard work and commitment to your subscribes is very much appreciated and I look forward to seeing more properties if you have to time. If I choose Ghana, I will purchase outright. Thanks for sharing.

My opinion as a Ghanaian to anyone moving to Ghana is; firstly, once you moved to Ghana buy a land whether it’s full plot or half plot and start building your own house. It’s cheaper to build your own than renting or buying.

Another great clip. Thanks. Ghana’s housing market has never suffered a crash. The prices you see today will only go up in just a few years . People who could afford and bought properties at Trasacco valley when they started that development have almost doubled their money. The homes sell for close to double the asking price when that development started.

During my visit in December, I was able to visit Ayi Mensah Park (impressed) and Madina area (the driver dropped me in the wrong area but it was nice). I wanted to see Lakeside Estates, the newer community. Also visited the PramPram/Ningo area while visiting the Ancestral Wall; beautiful area but so remote that I couldn't get an Uber back to Accra (could have had something to do with the holiday traffic though).

Great video. The global pandemic and non-Ghanaian expats relocating to Ghana has really affected real estate prices. A large portion of the properties are being financed and developed by Ghanaian expats living abroad. And many are under financial stress due to the economic uncertainties of the pandemic. The more expats relocating to Ghana bringing in dollars, and willing to prepay the annual rent or purchase property - the more the market increases in price.

Tema housing market does not represent the whole of Ghana. It’s a nice and “developed city” hence the high prices. Most of the houses being sold there belongs to “Old money” families who have no use anymore for the old houses built by their grandfather/father and hence the old fashioned and poor state of the houses on sale. But there are really beautiful houses in Tema costing way more than the prices shown in the video. My next door neighbour sold his house for $360,000 USD. If you consider other places not in places like Tema you can get many, many modestly priced houses. For example you can get a two bedroom apartment in a place called Kwabenyan for $50k usd

Instead of just focusing on individual houses, some people might be more interested in apartments or townhouse developments. My wife and I have looked a a number of developments in and around Accra in the past year for a possible second home. There are relatively "affordable" ($150 - 200 K) developments like these in Accra suburbs like East Legon Hills, Oyarrifa, and Adenta as well as Tema Community 25.

Great video. Part of the lack of appeal that I’ve found after my recent visit is how there’s an expectation for everyone from ADOS to pay US prices without the US amenities including garbage/sewer/trash and reliable roads etc. it’s a bit unfortunate because many looking to build up Ghana and it’s infrastructure are turned off by those selling / renting homes that are 400% markup as a way to come up personally by those interested in migrating.

These prices are definitely on the very high side. Those huge brand new Pram Pram beach houses are only $180K... I think the local property owners may be getting overzealous, or they really don't want to sell and prefer to rent. These may be the "make it worth my while prices".

The problem with those prices is that most of our people cannot afford and don't have houses like that here in America, so these house are either tailored to the few blacks(in comparison to the majority) who can afford these houses, or other non black people eventually moving to Africa.
