People all over the world travel to Ghana just to have an experience of Ghanaian culture. As an addition, the Ghanaian government along with other individuals and organisations in the United States launched the “Year of Return” initiative which saw many African Americans discovering their ancestral lineage and tracing them to Ghana and different parts of the continent. It also put the country on the map as one of the “must-visit destinations in the world”.

In real estate all over the world, one of the most important things to consider before buying, renting or investing in a property is LOCATION. There is a lot you can change about a house but very little about the neighbourhood or community. There are over eight locations in Ghana that are considered the best neighbourhoods to live, buy or invest in properties; East Legon, Cantonments, Airport Residential, Osu, East Legon Hills, Labone, Roman Ridge & Dzorwulu. These neighbourhoods are known for their luxury, safety and proximity to great schools, hangout spots, amazing restaurants, hospitals, shopping malls and other essential places. These are generally areas where affluent people in Ghana reside.
On average, a fully furnished house in prime locations could go for $80,000 as a starting price and $1,500 as monthly rent.
According to an article written by the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, Ghana has enjoyed an increasingly stable and deepening democratic governance over the last two decades. With a commitment to market liberalisation, the government of Ghana is actively taking strides to build investor confidence and trust in the country by implementing feasible and helpful policies that will help reduce the general cost of doing business.
Ghana now is not only one of the best places to live and do business, but it is recorded to be one of the fastest-growing economies in the world according to the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business Report 2019.
In an interview conducted by The Breakfast Club radio show based in New York, USA, recent Grammy winner Burna Boy described Ghana as a peaceful country where he likes to spend his time. Over time, Ghana has seen several of Nigeria’s finest artists living in Ghana for a period of time.
One of the viable markets to invest in is the Real Estate market. With a growing housing deficit, the demand for houses is a guarantee. GIPC states that “The residential market is the most active, registering an estimated 85,000 transactions per annum over the past decade.”
