NOW YOU CAN LIVE NEAR ACCRA WITHOUT THE EXPENSIVE PRICE TAGS | RENT A HOME IN GHANA

#RENTAHOMEINGHANA #RENTALPROPERTIESINGHANA #LIFEINGHANA #GHANAPROPERTIES #LIVEINACCRA
Hi guys in this video I share with you 6 affordable properties within the greater Accra region. About 30 mins drive into Accra with no traffic. This is the Tema area. The thing that makes Tema a little bit cheaper to live in is the restaurants, roadside items, hotels, transport etc is generally much cheaper than it is within the nice areas in Accra. Making the cost of living in nice areas in Tema slightly lower than what you will get in a decent area in Accra.
I hope you find it helpful. x

This message is for my African sisters and brothers, who are returning home, please consider buying land and building your own home, because unfortunately greed is a big problem everywhere, as you can see. It is illegal to price anything in dollars, in Ghana since our currency is the cedi(s). I agree with all of you who are watching. These homes are overpriced, but once we start building our own, and they have no one to rent to, their pricing will be forced to come down. There are nice hotels that will offer you great monthly rates, while you build versus you going to another country to live. Everyone is not lusting/greedy for money.

[@etinyeneuboh6881]

Your comments are very rude. Some people will see those houses and consider it as cheap. I was in Ghana 2 years ago,and yes they really charge in dollars,cause of the inconsistency in cedis. If it's too expensive for you,it's not for you... Simple

I am sure the 1-year down payment could build you a moderate house elsewhere in Ghana. I am from Nigeria, though currently living outside the country. That $12,000 is like N4.5 - N5 million in Nigeria. For comparison sake, in Lagos (Nigeria) of all places that will get you something like these in the very pricey parts of Lagos: www.propertypro.ng/property/4-bedroom-semi-detached-duplex-house-for-rent-chevron-lekki-lagos-4CUER www.propertypro.ng/property/4-bedroom-detached-duplex-house-for-rent-osapa-london-lekki-lagos-6DLAD So, best approach is to rent a very modest/cheap place and use next 1 to 2 years to secure a land and build in Ghana. It's sad that people are going to cash in on the rising demands, just like its practiced in the West. But some of these prices are over-kills. A just paid $7,000 for a 1-acre land in outskirt of Lagos city. Lagos is not the faint hearted though.

[@abduleleshin4274]

The Ghanaian home owners have take economic factors in the consideration before putting a price tag on their properties.The houses may look good and all that.But they are in Ghana.They not in the USA.How many Ghanains can afford to pay that amount of money.How many Ghanains are making that kind of money per month?. Let's cut our Coates according our seize.Of course,the the places shown may fetch the prices mentioned,in the USA or Europe.But that's just too much, taking Ghana into consideration.

Ghana rent is spitefully expensive...So, what is included in those rents? Would one have to pay separately for water, electricity, internet, cable? I take it one is expected to to pay all rents up front, whether 3, 6 or 12 months, right?

[@zynergyr]

don't even consider these, they aren't even worth a fifth of the price, you have lost the proportion - average rent was always 80$ to 110$ in decent locations ! Just don't rent

[@rudygrissom5871]

After viewing several KZbin vloggers which are returnees living in Ghana...those in Real Estate business or are Contractors seem to be making the argument that American diasporans are unrealistic in the view that Ghana real estate in and around Accra are exaggerated when asking for $700 and up for rent...of homes or apartments which are marginal in location, style and finishings...Other KZbin vloggers which have lived in Ghana for years living in different places overtime, confirm agreeing with the hyper inflated view... of rental listings their seeing...having rental accommodations that are above marginal at a cost of $100-$300.....I believe greed has taken root to passively conspire to elevate rental rates..targeting returnees from the west...Common sense should tell them...returnees are not coming to struggle by being burden by the same debt struggle they fled from ...I have owned 5 properties and 6units....I know real estate valuations and I know house construction..And a game is being played against returnees regarding these marginal rentals....There are different groups preparing to acquire and build rental units for returnees and charge a price much lower than the current market rate...So returnees can come over settle into a rental that won't tap their funds allocated toward purchasing , building or investing to build economic security..not debt.

[@tvs9978]

@@anderiyah3rdeyewatching355 I do not think that black Americans are being maltreated. It's AAs who are always complaining about America. Perhaps this is a chance for you to do some introspection to truly assess what you hate about the US and appreciate the benefits instead of focusing on the negatives. You all should be careful about building up a utopia in your minds about what it means to live in Africa. Just because you paid btwn $100-300 for rent wherever you've lived does not mean that you're going to pay less in Ghana because it's in Africa. That suggests what your opinion is of Africa and it's clearly not built on reality. Every country is different. I suggest you research the cost of properties in Lagos, Nigeria and Luanda, Angola. You will be sorely surprised. These are some of the most expensive cities in the world although they're in Africa. Of course I'm not saying the properties shown in this video are worth it. Frankly this does not reflect the quality of buildings out there so I am surprised but nevertheless you need to adjust your expectations. As a student in Toronto, the cheapest rent I ever paid was $450 CAN and that was for a teeny tiny bedroom in a shared apartment with 2 other roommates in my first year of university. In my senior years, a 1 bed apartment (15-18 years ago) was btwn CAN $800-1600 (US$750-1500 approx) so you've really had it easy in life if $100-300 is the range you're used to cos I paid my rent by myself as a student working part-time. Fact is that most of the rental properties in Accra are geared to temporary expat workers from Europe/the US or to migrants from Nigeria who are wealthy and can afford this rent. Eversince we started producing oil 10 years ago, the real estate market has become super expensive which is the trend in all oil producers on the continent because the market has been geared to expat workers who have been transferred to Ghana by an employer like Nestlé, or an oil company. In such cases, their rent is paid by the company or they receive a a salary/housing allowance that comfortably pays for such rent. Our market is not geared towards AAs who have suddenly decided to relocate to Ghana. The assumption that suddenly Ghanaians see a chance to dupe AAs is superiorist and self absorbed. The standard has always been to rent in USD to expat workers. Naturally properties for locals are not going to be marketed to foreigners because they are usually not built to a Western standard. A lot of the modern apartments/houses being built in Accra are also geared towards middle and upper middle class Ghanaians. They are mostly purchased by professionals and mature Ghanaians in the 40+ age range who have acquired savings over their lifetimes and can purchase multiple properties at such prices as investment properties. When they in turn rent these properties, they are aiming to rent to expat workers. If you don't fit that mold, that is not the landlords fault. He has his business model in mind and it's not geared towards AAs necessarily. Our president has unilaterally decided to suddenly market the country to AAs without thinking about whether our system is geared to handle you guys. For some of you it may, and for others it won't. In that case you need to adjust your expectations. Nobody owes you anything. We're all trying to build a better life for ourselves.
