This is absolutely important that people looking to buy land in Ghana contact BOTH FAMILY AND CHIEF. The chief is the land custodian and the ultimate power person. Families sit on land for decades and think they own it but they usually don’t.
Rush, Marvin I enjoyed this discussion... I would love to chat with you about you appearing on my show.. The James Cooley Show.. It's Your Life Radio on TH-cam, Television, and over 55 live streaming platforms . With Dr. James JC Cooley
I am building in Ashifla and i have no problems with anyone. I am based in UK and i have a project manager who takes care of my building project. Very honest guy
How is it in that area? It seems to be about 2 hours from Accra where I am building... I am based in the US, but lived in London before moving to the US.
I am building and no one came for money. No land guards. The local youth go to the site and work there. Carpenter and steel bender and labourers are from the local area. Farmers plant corn and cassava on the land and harvest it. Local youth clean up the land and building. I wm not Ghanian. I am Jamaican basedin UK
Bro. What you guys are talking about is only happening in Accra not in the other Regions. So please be specific with these land litigation issues.. I bought some acres of lands in the Asante Region from different locations. No problems and it’s been there for years.
Completely outrageous comment , can you not see what is happening in Aburi, Kpone, Prampram and Akosombo area near the famous bridge? The good money is on these areas, and as the middle classes grow here and from diaspora, they begin to look for quality and stress free environment which Accra does not provide. Industry is also shifting towards that corridor, Tema to Ada generous land endowment . soon workers will be living in Ada and commuting to Prampram daily for work. The nation only need to upgrade its rail and road transport network. This will happen in my life time , may be not yours!
These issues of multiple landlords showing up every now and then has become the norm in Ghana now, it’s never going to end, it’s been like that even before independence, unless the government do something about it. No possible though.
It depends on which region you bought the land.If it is in the Greater Accra area the possibility of you facing problems like multiple owners saying they have the same land is very high.You don't really get many problems when you buy land in other regions.
The economy is absolutely horrible. I appreciate Rush’s honesty. Too many Ghana utubers just bullsh*ing. Yo the way Mr Walker talkin’ it’s not making Ghana attractive. Scary sh*
It’s a hostile environment run by savages. It’s ok for visiting but doing business there you need connections and give bribes and if you are lucky the local workers won’t steal from the business
If you use a good real estate lawyer you will be fine and that holds true regardless of what country you're in. The problem is, too many folks deal directly with the seller without using a lawyer and that's a no no.
Countries should be careful selling their lands to foreigners from wealthier economies. Especially African ones that have already experienced colonialism. This is just that, again. Investment is good but only if it benefits the locals and doesn’t disappear back to the States...or China. China is working on owning the entire continent through infrastructure project loan defaults.
Until there's a major real estate development or a major amusement park development in the area, i don't see these beachfront properties appreciating anytime soon. Ghana is not Miami. What works in the US may not necessarily work in Ghana. Long term, yes. But not in the short term. At least not in my lifetime. When it comes to investment real estate, it's only in certain areas of Accra(the Cantonments, the Osu, the Airport areas, East legon, Dzorwulu etc etc). The rest will later catch up, but not right now.
Unfortunately, there’s no land available in these areas, and majority of clients cannot afford these places, so I’d rather invest in places that are not too far from the airport and make profits all the same.
@@estherofosu8840 i agree. It doesn't have to be the areas I've listed. But equally not those beachfront areas. They're in the middle of no where in my view. A studio size apartment selling for $85k at Cantonments or airport areas is still way better than a 4 bedroom townhouse in a beachfront area selling for 250k-300k. The studio unit will rent everyday. Can't say the same for the beachfront property
One of the reasons why don't want to travel to Ghana is how they treat African Americans who try to purchase land in Ghana. The government allow Non-Black people to purchase land and build and they never take advantage to those people. They are so dishonest which is such a turn off.
The government has nothing to do with it. These issues are caused by individuals. The government can help put law and order in place to make land ownership a straightforward forward process.
So long as you use a good real estate lawyer, you will be fine no matter who comes out of the woodwork. I have land in a few places there and I am fine...
Land issues in Ghana is as old as the country itself, it affects everyone even Ghanaians who lives in the country suffer the same, even worse than foreigners.
Is it only me Or I don't understand English? "An African American *builds* beach house" when in actual fact he is now building the project. Why use the word *build* instead of *is building* ?
This Is My Lil Brother.. i’m very proud of you. straight out of the Bronx, New York.🥂
My man has the right attitude and mindset to build in the motherland! Keep it up, Bro!!
Moving a person to the second phase is not foreclosure. You are good.
Love you ❤may God continue to protect you.

I was hoping to see more of what he has done with the properties. Visual aides more than the sit down ( which to me is like more podcast material)
Winning in life is a mindset. I absolutely enjoyed this video. Big Up yourselves.
Great content i really want tp come and check out the property with my husband thank you so much God bless me please to come and be successful.

My brother I love your show🙏♥️🫶👌💯
I love this. Brilliant idea.
Am building in the New Juaben Area and no harrassment.
It's only in Accra you will see landguards.

My brother please tell me how to do the same
Nice one. The prices seems reasonable to me considering the location. So good 👍🏾
This dude is funny as hell😂
Keep doing the do my fellow Bronxite! Stay strong and continue to maintain the focus to build and elevate 🎉🥳
"70% of all cases in court in Ghana are land cases." 8:06 min mark. Wow!
Keep going Marvin. Thank you Rush for the update
Am ready
What's the name of the development and the company? That link is not working for me. I would like to get in touch with him.
What ever they are saying about harrassment is in some particular areas. It is not every region. I have never experienced it in Koforidua and Tamale.
Good follow up!
Marvin well done.
Let me know how to get in touch with you. So please reply, lets build The Brand.

@@stanleyglover5534 your comment doesn’t make sense. You are just contradicting yourself. Go back and read your comment and come again.
There are challenges everywhere.
Where in Accra is the beachfront house located? I live in Florida and I am interested.
@emeliathomoson3453 we are located in Big Ada. Its 90 minutes from Accra.
@@sharkislandresortresidence7683please send me the prices of the houses .
My mum is Ghanaian and has had the same problem with her land from 1999 😫
It’s common.

Come to kumasi nothing like that will happen why you don't want to do development in kumasi
Because kumasi is a big village
Kumasi has no appeal for urban real estate investment
I will definitely visit Kumasi...it seems to be up and coming...thanks.
@@Uncle-Basil thanks
@@youngsnapbeats hmm , I'm saddened.
Nahhh man.. it doesn't matter where Marvin .. Lived.. after GUYANA.. He's Guyanese 😂 BIGGUP 💯

Stay where you are! Homelessness in America, UK, Canada and Europe is going up. Stay where you are. It's not for you.
Great advice never pay upfront for all the land so you don't lose money.
If you use a good real estate lawyer you will be fine and that holds true regardless of what country you're in. The problem is, too many folks deal directly with the seller without using a lawyer and that's a no no.
Poverty is on the rise in the USA, Canada, UK, Germany, etc.
😂😂😂you have to donate took me out 😂
What’s the name of his property
Shark Island
Isn't ghana money in CEDIS why is marvin pricing in dollars and he lives in GHANA.?
Stop with the fake headlines. This guy is not African American. He is Guyanese. Guyanese-American is more appropriate
And where did the African slaves from Guyana came from? Ghana, so technically he went back home to where his ancestors came from.😀👍🏽🇬🇭🇬🇾

@@kontomylitisHave you seen a studio apartment in Cantoment going for $85k...just out of interest. I think you can't but I stand to be corrected.
@@MickeyAgyei yes I've bought one there. And i have a deposit for another one right across from the police headquarters too
@@kontomylitis Seen. I was thinking it would cost more than that.

@rushasare The guy you interview is NOT an African American pal. He's from Guyana who impersonates AA when it's beneficial to him...ijs👍
