Rule of thumb "Don't buy from anyone if you can't sue them". Buy from only reputable companies. it might be more expensive but your land is more secured if you do.
Ghana's real estate needs to be better regulated!!! Its becoming so inflated that the locals can barely afford to buy homes themselves. 35000 for a plot of land?! 70*100?!!! Insane!!
Thank you for sharing! I can't wait to be in ghana 🇬🇭 home is where the heart 💘 is! Looking forward to being there! Keep up the excellent work! I always enjoy your videos!
Kudos to you and all TH-camrs always updating those of us not in Ghana about how life is going on there. Don't let those negative comments bother you. Use it a means to challenge yourself to win more subscribers. And know that there will always be negative people in this world. As long as the positive outweighs the negative, be happy. Good job.
Could you give us an idea of how much the land was in trassaco springs, I already have a project in east legon hills and I'm considering trassaco springs as my next location
"ghana water is so reliable" Really? Better make sure you have a minimum of 3000 liter water tank as a buffer for when the water is shut down, which happens regularly.
There are advantages and disadvantages to a gated community. Advantages: Less crime because it's gated Paved roads Electricity Water Well organized, neat and clean No one can come and build a church In case of an emergency you have neighbors nearby Disadvantages: Homes too close to each other No privacy Security guard knows your business No parking space for visitors No place to plant trees or have a garden
Well said. I guess for my first purchase z I'd go with an estate I'd say all the disadvantages you listed could easily be fixed in future estates if the builders design it for fewer homes and more yard space in between
Have u done a video on buying in Cantonment and Tema? The prices are high for a plot, but I would be concerned that anything can be build next to you property. I would think for the prices there would be more zoning laws for those not in a gated community.
@African Pride These are the buildings they sell to Stars in The States for millions of dollars. Those houses are even of wood and the Termite squad will visit you in less than 5 years to scam you.
Do they not have an Estate Agents Council in Ghana, we do have those in Southern Africa so you can easily check with the Deeds Office for legitimate properties. You avoid being scammed by unscrupulous estate agents or individuals selling land.
Nice video. I had a laugh as at the 0:26 mark I saw a billboard for “The Makarios Church”, part of Lighthouse Chapel International, a ministry I was connected to in Ghana. Bishop Dag Howard-Mills is in the left and Bishop Eddy Addy is on the right - two genuine ministers of the gospel.
Pls make sure u get the site plan of the plots ,contact lands commission for enquiry to know the appropriate owners of those lands before purchasing. My piece of advice.
I agree with you. I bought 6 acres land for just £6000 in the rural area in the Asante region , not a $35,000 for a piece of land🤭. Animal farming for this project. ❤️🇬🇭
Yes, you don't have to be ghanaian to buy in Ghana. Just do your due diligence and you're good to go. DON'T send money over the internet without seeing the property.
“Money swine, Better life” This is an old jargon that the poor in Ghana use to console themselves. With 35000.00, I can but 10 to 12 plots of land in some other part of Accra. Truly money swine, better life for East Legon
35000 for 12 plots? That has to be in the middle of nowhere..... because even in Tamale, Bolga and Navrongo plots start at 5000 cedi going up to 12000..... for one not 10 or 12....
Spent $100k on 5 acres in Prampram (100x70 per plot) 10 minutes drive to the nearest beach,money well spent. Road well demarcated, electric and water already in the area. Crazy thing, now that the Tema road/interchange got pimped, less traffic traveling to and out of accra. Go outside central accra, my advice.
Well done for posting a video of the area. Everyone talks about ELH but no one ever shares a video of the area. My concern is people have gotten overexcited and started building before proper infrastructure arrives. Your friend mentioned in the Visio that the road us bring done. Which road did he mean?
@@VanessaKanbi If possible, can we get a clearer video on how to avoid? I know you have one with the property officer but it was so so confusing (coming from someone who lived in Sierra Leone).
Vanessa, my dream house is around the Trassacco Springs and Shandonia Garden area, where you guys were driving. Specifically, the Tema Development Corporation (TDC) service plots in Community 24 Tema. Shandonia Garden is off the Tema Development Corporation area. All three areas are within the same vicinity. I am not sure if you drove around the TDC part, but my house is white, with a curved roof on a particular part of the house.
I was going to buy an acre from east legon hills in 2016.went to see the traditional queen mother in that area,did a search on the land and found out it had 2 owners
Hello lovely Vanessa, thanks so much for your videos, I'm a Ghanaians living in the UK for the last twenty years and I only came across your channel when I was looking for tourists attractions in Ghana to take my children when I was planning to come this summer. This didn't happen due to Covid 19 but hopefully next year we'll be there. Keep up the good work. Also are you able to cover the new rehoboth development in Kwabenya, Accra, it's called Knightsbridge Kwabenya. Thanks GN
I'm happy that you have a friends like Laila & Phillip who have successfully purchased & built properties nearby. I like their Palm V Estates. Hmmm...🤔 Did you purchase that 70×100 plot that you like?😊 Thank you for sharing this journey. Best wishes for success in your endeavor?
Hey Vanessa, really enjoyed the 2 part video with the healers. Word, Sound, Power. Give thanks for that. If you would like music for your videos, let me know, would be great to contribute and collaborate.
These places will all be fully built in the next 5 yesrs. I like the fact that those upcoming areas are being built with PROPER REGULATIONS etc. That is how it is supposed to be. Noooo noise making churches and all that nonsense.
Honestly, with 35,000.00 dollars, I can get land big enough to put up a small town in some other part of Accra. Those plots sell for 20,000 Ghana cedis, which is around 3,500.00. My dear lady should move into those areas, buy some large plot and use it for her house and some other business of her own. Vanessa, please don’t waste so much money there.
Where do I get information on buying a home already built? Do you still have all those consents and obstacles for buying land? Is it a more simple process??
Really beautiful place but deal directly with the real estate companies instead of agents. Most of these agents are not trustworthy and engage in a lot of fraudulent land transactions.

This is very true. Go with the big companies so that if something goes wrong you have some recourse.
Suing does not really work in Ghana lol, you can bribe the judge lol
GHANA’s future prospects looks great! All the best on your building project. 👏🏿👏🏿

There are advantages and disadvantages to a gated community.
Advantages:
Less crime because it's gated
Paved roads
Electricity
Water
Well organized, neat and clean
No one can come and build a church
In case of an emergency you have neighbors nearby
Disadvantages:
Homes too close to each other
No privacy
Security guard knows your business
No parking space for visitors
No place to plant trees or have a garden
Well said. I guess for my first purchase z I'd go with an estate
I'd say all the disadvantages you listed could easily be fixed in future estates if the builders design it for fewer homes and more yard space in between
Just be careful of scammers. Money should be the last thing after much verification.
Interesting, again these hard times is time to buy. I will be starting my project next year.

Feet.

Yes, you don't have to be ghanaian to buy in Ghana. Just do your due diligence and you're good to go. DON'T send money over the internet without seeing the property.
Thank you. Much appreciated. At the moment I’d rather invest in Ghana than anywhere else in west Africa.
