Hey everyone! Thanks for all the questions! We just got our internet reconnected in the new house so I will answer them in my very next video which will be up ina few days! Stay tuned! 😊
Congratulations, you have done a nice job with your house. You are living the dream!
My observations, as an architect:
I would have built an anti-ballistic perimeter wall, since you are building a wall.
Pedestal sinks are not as functional as a sink with a counter
A pantry is a good feature for a kitchen.
No basement?
Always plan your foundation so a second story can be added later.
Hey! Please utilize what God gives freely solar power . You can get individual panels easily on line quite cheap
nice house i hope get out of amerkkka one day .that same house would cost at least 3 to 4 hundred thousand dollars in the united snakes of america.
You could dig a borehole and install a water tank so you can be free from paid water supply. That's what we mostly do in Nigeria. Once you have solar for electricity supply and borehole, you have almost no bills
Happy for you guys but you could have gotten a house in Atlanta for that price with tons of upgrades. Sounds like houses are expensive there with no upgrades. I plan to buy land and build in Ghana but I expect a lot more. Bottom line is you guys are happy.
Amazing now I have a place to stay when I get to Namibia
WODE MAYA
Wode maya i have a question for YOU.
Why YOU have not yéti come to ivory COAST ? IS it the language Barrier ?
Mr. Ghana! My home in Windhoek is also open to you and Marwa, my favorite African TH-camrs
Congratulations. Your new home is beautiful. Lance is all smiles, he's seems very happy.
Thank you!! ♥️
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica I see my typo lol. I meant he seems very happy.
Lance is so excited and happy. You and your family are thriving blessings my sista! I'm so happy for you and inspired by your boldness.
@@AfroAmericaninAfricaAfrica seens like a beautiful place to move if you have money. For those of us unrich Blacks in Americs it's s no go unless you marry an African with money.
@@sherrisolomon8673 keep praying sis
Love the way the closet doors blend in with the master bathroom entrance...
Very beautiful...
Thank you! That was my husband’s idea! 😁
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica
Well, it's a perfect notion...
🥰🥰
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica Ok
Yessssss that was my fav part
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica very nice idea.
I'm so proud of you. Congratulations on the completion of your family home. I'm also working to save my money now so that I can repatriate to Tanzania within 10 yrs and use some of my money to build my own little bungalow. I'm so happy for you.
What a fantastic goal! A Tanzanian bungalow sounds all kinds of beautiful 🙌🏾
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica Absolutely it is. My hometown is super hot and humid all year round but there is a part of Northern Tanzania that is known for its Eternal Spring. Best weather in the world. That's where I plan to move. I can't wait.
pamoja sana czar when u are ready hit me up I m reside in lake zone
Check out traveling sista i believe expatriates cannot own land in Tanzania. I was considering the same thing until i heard that. I hope it has changed and you will be able to build.
CzarJuliusIII your dreams will come true one day and very much welcome to Tanzania (karibu sana Tanzania) we will be happy to see you here is your home.
For those looking to build. Regarding water, think about a bore hole/ well system. You won't have to pay for water
Congratulations!! You have a lovely home-nothing like having your own!
Let’s come together and give her the best donations ever ASAP!!!!!!
Thanks so much for this 🌻
Congratulations new homeowners....absolutely beautiful and wonderful!!!!!💕😄🌞
Thanks so much ♥️
Thank you for embracing my country and making it your home all the best
love that door..You and your husband are really great people.It's so awesome you guys have well water.DO not ever get municipality water,they add fluoride to it.Yes even in Africa.Not sure how they can charge you for water when it's a well tank.You can drill your own well and get a pressure tank and pressure switch,you would never have to pay for water again.Blessings to you guys
It is municipality water. Africa has municipality water. Namibia is a very dry country (it has a desert) but the municipality provides water to urban areas. They are very reliable, hardly or never have water rationing.
BEAUTIFUL,ENJOY YOUR BEAUTIFUL HOME.
Maybe I'm just brand new but that backsplash above the stove- that wonderful clear piece above is AMAZING!!! I can't be the only one gushing over it. Lol.So chique! The house is amazing.
People better start buying now. Africa will soon be a hot spot for all.
I can assure you, that is already happening especially in Uganda. Prices are sky rocketing. Now considering the fact that what is about to happen in temperate regions, I mean political and social. (I mean marking humans with biometric chips.)
Couldn't have said it any better. Just a matter of time, everyone will be running to Africa.
I believe there is only about 60 Million Black AA in the USA almost the same amount of people in RSA but mixed with all races so in short there is plenty of room for all of AAs if you decide to move to Africa.
I assume you are saying hot spot for all, you mean AAs and other Africa diasporas across the globe. that's right, they all should come home. There is plenty of room for all.
Yes, it will be a hot spot. If only you knew how true your words are.
You ain’t never lied
I love your front door, that wood is beautiful.
Ya we use that a lot in Africa
Congratulations! That is a big accomplishment, for sure.
The secret bathroom is absolutely amazing! I so love it!
Thank you!!
Absolutely beautiful! Congratulations!
Wow congratulations on your new home...as a Nigerian I believe Namibia is quite expensive compared to Nigeria though. That $80,000. Home in Namibia will be around $40,000. In Nigeria in that kind of low income neighborhood.
david soul ... they seem to have better utilities ( water/electricity) services and much much less crowded. Yes, Namibia is expensive but prolly less saturated opportunity - wise vs Nigeria or Kenya for example. 🤷🏾♀️
Where in Nigeria. Everything in Nigeria is overpriced.
WOW congratularions. Lance is so excited 😁 Afrika or Azania is our land/home amazing.
Congratulations, your house is so beautiful
I can't wait to go back to Africa it's been such a long time, seeing this just motivates me even more
Such a BEAUTIFUL home for you and your family! I'm so excited for you, my Sister! Peace & Blessings to you and yours!
Congratulations Well you moving on up! Can't wait to see your cookouts and parties.
I love the design of the front door. Also, I love the amount of natural light you get inside your home. The doors leading tot he bathroom in the master is almost like a secret passageway, lol. I thought it was another closet door. Congrats to y'all. Also, Lance is a cute kid.
You and your family are such an inspiration. Congratulations on your new home!❤🙌🏾
All the very best to you beautiful lady!! Blessings abound!!
Sir Lance-A-Lot has grown so much! And he is going to be a big boy. Your locks look beautiful.
Thanks so much!! His maternal great-grandfather's name was Lancelot, that's who I named him after! 😊
@@AfroAmericaninAfricaawesome. you know the movie, "Best Man Holiday" sequel to the "Best Man Wedding", I was thinking about Morris Chestnut character. Put him in sport while you and maybe he can play for NBA. NBA is trying to have a footing in Africa.
🎉Congratulations 🎈 Thank you for sharing your experience! Something beautiful is happening and YOU are a pioneer paving the way! ❤️
Congratulations; enjoy the new life you have earned! Blessings
Thank you for sharing your experience in Nambia! It looks beautiful and peaceful 😊
I am happy for you all. More blessings.
Congratulations to you and your husband. You all did a great job. All things are possible, if we only believe. Hard work sure pays off. This is my very time watching your chanel, I am loving it. Thanks for sharing. I am interested in learning more from you, so I am subscribing. I love your house. All the way from the Turks and Caicos islands

.
Congrats you guys!!! This is huge, so so proud of you, beautiful home 😍❤️🙏🏾
God bless your family and make new beautiful memories in this house too.
You have a beautiful home I know it's has to be a great feeling to own a piece of Africa 😊✊
William Webbs, yes the land of the ancestors, it can be done.
Can you guys be able to put grass all around the side yard and back yard or add small footing kind like a foundation around the outside house wall to protect the wall and paint from getting wet with rain or water?
Congratulations. I glad you are doing well and happy.
I also use prepaid electricity and prepaid water .I am landlord so it makes my life easier best part you can never say you are behind on your water and electricity bill because it's prepaid 😁😀💃💃.
Afro-Americans in Africa; Thank you for sharing with us... Also Congratulations! - to you and your lovely Family,,, It is beautiful,, may your family enjoy many joy-filled years there.. I think it is lovely..
Congratulations, Queen...
🥰🥰🥰
In which town did you settle and build? I lived in Namibia for 6 months a few years back working for an NGO. Spent just a few days in the capital Windhoek but lived up north in Grootfontein/Tsumeb. Got to visit many towns across the country, beautiful land, I keep fond memories of the whole experience.
Congratulations to you on the purchase of your new home. Hope you have all days of love and happiness and the wonderful blessings that the Most High will bestow upon you and your family. Big up my sista.
I love how you are making a life for yourselves in the Motherland. Kudos to you!! I too am considering Repatriation to the Continent. You and hubby are truly lion-hearted; and all that for only $80k, wow! That would be more than enough for me and my visitors from N. America.
Omg 😱 your house is sooo pretty
Congrats 🎉🎈🎊🍾
Just to sit in the corner and look out that window would be like Heaven to me. Many Blessings are yours!!
I'm very impressed.This definitely inspires me to relocate to the Motherland once I retire.
Congratulations to you and your family!! We love you here in Namibia ♥️
Nice. I'm currently working on procuring an Airbnb in Nigeria. (ADOS)
C. Adagun an Airbnb is a brilliant business idea in growing Africa. I just stole your idea. ..❤️
I am a Nigerian American Woman . I am also looking into that but I am looking into Gambia to buy lands and start building in 2020. Lagos Nigeria is too congested for me.
Your home is beautiful! Congratulations!
What an amazing channel and a great joy to watch. Thank you
Congratulations! So happy for you! Thanks for sharing the information and showing us your beautiful home.
Congratulations for you and your family.What I can say is back to your roots.I know this video will inspire many people to come to Africa.
Congrats!!
Is there any reason why solar panels were not installed? Harnessing the sun should’ve been a priority.
Congratulations and thank you for sharing your beautiful home!!!!
Great price 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
What I love about Africa is in most towns there is no rich neighborhood and poor neighborhood. People are given land equally without discrimination or their social status. Exclusive neighborhoods are only found in cities where people buy houses in expensive estates .
Yay 😃 congrats 🍾 homeowners ✊🏽✊🏽
That's a very nice property. Congratulations. 💪🏿
Thank God you are looking happy and more refreshed.Kudos!
Thanks for showing us the other parts of Africa.Proud of what you and your family have.how large is the Black American expats in Namibia?
Thank you for watching! There are a bunch mostly in the capital city (Windhoek) but there are also a few scattered around other parts of the country (mostly peace Corps volunteers)!
Congratulations!!! 🎊🎊
I always watch and enjoy your videos
Thanks so much for your support! Appreciate it!
80k what? That is a very reasonable amount including land. Congrats K and hubby making your new start.
We need to start forming investment groups and buy as much land as possible all over the continent.
No easy feat. Congratulations, really. All yours.
Beautiful family, your son’s smile is so pleasant
Wonderful house 👍
Congratulations, you have a nice beautiful home. I love that yard and wall that will be completed.
you settled in my home town yeah, welcome
That closet/bathroom door in the master bedroom tho 👌🏾 Congratulations on your beautiful new home and land!
Think about Guide Tour Business around Namibia, amongst others of your Activities, especially the outskirts of Namibia.
Congrats sister beautiful home I love that your son is very happy and excited
Nice house! May God bless and protect you and your beautiful family in Namibia
I haven't seen you in a while!!!!! Great seeing you again!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Congrats,.....🇧🇧 To the wurl!!!
I've been watching you for a while now, and I'm so very proud of you! And that little boy of yours is somthing else, he so adorable ... keep up the good work. 🙃🙃😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Congratulations
NICE!👍🏾
It's so beautiful over there totally different than what I learned in school.
Congratulations :) Greetings from Sweden.
Very happy for you cuz, dont forget to work on getting that solar soon, with all that sunshine in Namibia you will save money in the long run.
Congratulations on your New Home Stay Blessed
Awesome video
Your home looks beautiful
Congrats love ❤
Fantastic. I wish more African Americans can invest in a home in Africa. You don’t have to worry about Gentrification, property taxes, housing discrimination and all the other things that you deal with in America. I would also like to tell African Americans that in Africa houses are built with solid quarry stone, and materials that will last hundreds of years. We do not build houses with stucco and cheap materials so the asset will last for centuries to come and you can pass this on to your children and grand children. Please come back home. Africa is home. It will change your life for ever. Thank you 🙏 for the video.
That door!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍💃🏾💃🏾
Thank you!! ♥️ It was between this one and a sliding glass door so we decided to splurge on the wooden door 😁
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica perfect!
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica Impressive. In East Afri~ such material for a door or any part of especially a rural dwelling, would be infested with termites inside of seven months. For that reason, most people who build dwellings there will have metal doors & windows. That is no issue in the S. Afri~, No?

What are the seasons like oven there, do you have a rainy season? Also, how common is it for people for install solar panels and dig their own private or semi-private water wells (boreholes)?
