The reality is land prices in Ghana are not going down. The African Investor reports that in 2024, residential properties in Accra on average increased by 5%. Similarly, land prices are not getting cheaper. Whether it’s Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, or even smaller towns, land has become more expensive every year. But what’s really behind it?
In this post, we take an honest look at the factors driving up land value in Ghana, the impact of real estate inflation, and what the latest land price trends in Ghana mean for buyers, investors, and developers.
Property value in Ghana isn’t just about how big a house is or how pretty it looks. It depends on several key factors—some obvious, others less so. Whether you’re setting a price or negotiating a deal, knowing what affects real estate pricing can help you make smarter choices.
Below are factors influencing property Value in Ghana.
Buying land in Ghana is exciting. It’s one of those “big life” moments. However, it can also turn into a headache if you skip one crucial step: getting a professional surveyor involved. Surveyors are the people who check the land for you, make sure it matches the documents, and confirm you’re actually buying what you think you’re buying, with no surprises, no hidden disputes.
Let’s talk about why a surveyor should be your first call before you hand over a single cedi.
Let’s talk about something many of us skip: property insurance in Ghana. You might be a homeowner, or you’ve just wrapped up a build, but you’re thinking policies are too expensive or unnecessary. Yet, in a country where fires, floods, and theft often happen, home insurance isn't just ‘nice to have.’ It’s a smart move to protect your home and your finances.
We’ll walk through what it covers, how much it costs, who really needs it, and how to decide what’s right for your home.
When you buy land in Ghana, you expect it to be yours. Completely. But sometimes, things don’t go as smoothly. Land encroachment happens when someone deliberately (or sometimes unknowingly) uses or takes part of your land without your permission. And honestly, this can lead to long, stressful battles if you’re not prepared.
In this guide, we’ll talk about why land boundaries matter, how property boundary disputes start, and how you can secure land in Ghana so you never have to fight for what you own.
For many people who are financially ready to fund a home, the big question often borders on opting to buy an already-built house or to build from scratch. Both options come with benefits and challenges. Some people say building gives you more control. Others argue that buying saves time. But when it comes to cost, things aren’t always so clear.
In Ghana, the topic of rent advance is always a hot one. Some landlords ask for two years upfront. Some tenants struggle to afford it. Others don’t even know what the law says.
If you’re renting a house or managing one, understanding your rights and responsibilities is key. This post breaks down what the law says about rent advance in Ghana, what the Rent Control office does, and how the landlord-tenant law in Ghana protects both sides.
Being a landlord in Ghana can be rewarding, but it also comes with challenges. From dealing with tenants to maintaining the property, there’s a lot to keep track of. That’s where property management in Ghana comes in.
In the property market, the term ‘site plan’ is quite familiar. It’s one of the most important documents in land transactions. But for many buyers, it’s also one of the most confusing.
In this guide, we’ll explain what a site plan is, why it matters, and how to read it without getting lost in the technical details. We’ll also cover how it connects to land demarcation and land survey work.
Buying land or a house in Ghana can be an exciting experience. But many first-time buyers get caught off guard, not because of the price on the listing, but because of the hidden costs that come with it.
When people talk about buying property in Ghana, they usually mention places like East Legon, Cantonments, or Airport Hills. These areas are great, yes. However, they’re also expensive and over-marketed as prime areas.
