🇯🇲 I like what you guys are doing there Ghana but I was thinking, why not build houses with more land space , so one could have a larger land for garden or pool 🤷🏾♂️
No, Ghana is a tiny country of 33 million people. All these foreigners buying all the land and reselling it to Ghanaians who once owned it free of charge are simpling making Ghanaians homeless. The per capita income of Ghanains is $2 300. How can they afford $ 40 000 houses? Ghanaians need to wake up and stop this nonsense. When these people they are trying to appease finish selling off their country, they are going to move to another African country and try to reprise their bullshit. So far, they seem to have South Africa and Kenya in their sights. Fortunately, those two countries will be harder to hoodwink because they are now going to be shamed into giving up their land by sentimental demands to atone for slavery. No East African slave went to the Americas, and South Africa produced no slaves.
Great video! I think it's very important to go over 1) water in(you did!) 2) water out 3) electricity 4) garbage collection 5) grocery, schools and hospitals.
Garbage collection and other services well as they say “live in hope die in despair “ although the electricity is improving the workers no longer hurl insults at the consumers and as my wife found yesterday when a truck knocked over the power pole they only waited 8 hours for reconnection in the past it would have been days.
@@MzeewaUjiji You many ask the same in many western countries where average yearly median incomes are 65000 $ and median price of city homes is $900, 000? Most homes in Ghana are paid for !
Actually not, you don't own the land, you likely have to pay property tax and you have to pay a $50 per month association fee. Based upon the overall average income of Ghana, this house should not be above $10,000.
@7:37 I hate the bars on the windows! We do not trust ourselves? Ghana ranks as more peaceful than most western countries and yet, most homes there do not have the bars. I also hate the barbed wire on the perimeter fences. Thank you Kofi for starting to normalize getting rid of these things, it is 100% not needed
I understand the reply and basically think thevsame. Only in Accra therefore a lot of areas where they would even carry your whole house away if possible. Without strong burglar proof, nearly impossible. But I agree, it is dangerous and ugly!! In Europe it is different. Most Windows ate double-or triple glazed. Nearly no chance to enter. Then many houses have the Burglar Proof hidden on top of thecwindiws, inside the wall (jalousie). At night you just let them down and block them. I never understood why nobidyvhas ever introduced thus here in Ghana
Listen, I said the same thing 5 years ago but I did leave Georgia and moved to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷! I wanna go back home but buoy dem dig out yuh eye fi wha yuh nuh have! Here we have sweet sop, otahiti apple, breadfruit everything we get back home, I even found a ackee tree
Hi Vanessa, If you talk to Anna and Kevin from the Netherlands, please let them know we miss her videos. I remember seeing you all together in Ghana. I miss those times
You have been complaining about the White tiles but you've never suggested colour, one thing you should know is that, tiles colours have to, much with the interior wall colour colours.
These prices are much more reasonable and realistic. In fact it’s fantastic! The space and attention to detail is amazing. I’m sure one can add their own unique decor. However, what would put me off from buying is the location. It’s in a basin, at the bottom of a hill. There will always be a danger of severe flooding and mud slides or land slides.
Tell me how does the average Ghanaian afford one of these ? The Cedi today is 12,78 against the Euro so the USD would be a little less and most workers get paid in Cedis not USD . The bank interest rates make it impossible to get a mortgage unless of coarse you live outside Ghana and even then it’s difficult.
There are other options for the average Ghanaian. Not everyone will be able to afford to buy a house. Just like the West there will be Ghanaians who will only rent throughout their lifetime. Even if that building was going for only $5k people will still ask this same question. The reality is that we are all not meant to buy houses, some will buy and others will rent. As a Ghanaian these prices seem reasonable to me even though I can't afford it. Nevertheless, your question was a legitimate one.
Surprisingly most homes in Ghana are not under mortgage, they are paid for. There are many million dollar homes owned by local people , but l can understand your economics ❤
@shaibujibril3799 a lot of Ghanaians own their homes though. Pretty much large part of Accra (inner city) is still held by the indigenous people. Don't let these youtube videos fool you. From the best of Osu, East Legion and Cantonment, you have the locals deep in the streets holding on to their generational properties, something I really love about Accra/Ghana by the way, unlike Lagos, Nigeria.
@@stanleyglover5534I just made this comment, responding to the person before you. I've stayed in East Legion, visit Osu, Cantonement and all the raved about places of Ghana a lot, the locals are in their "family compounds", they ain't going nowhere 😂 They're the ones that run the kiosks and stalls all around the city. The youtubers market these new developments to their audience (of course), but that doesn't mean the indigenous people who have been their for generations have all been bought out. They just don't have the fancy houses, but that's okay.
better price would be 14 - 17,000 USD. Ghana needs to change its land ownership laws. 50, 99, years where did they get that from. maybe uk people are used to such.
$50 Is Very Nice. My HOA Here In Illinois Is $300 A Month With No Amenities. My HOA Covered Water, Garbage, Cleaning The Common Areas And The Surrounding And The Snow And Putting The Grass Outdoor
Hi Vanessa,great video as always.I have a ? Why is the land is lease if you buying the house? And after 50-69 years what happens after that and can I transfer to my kids? Thanks that’s my ?
@@VanessaKanbi So you really never own the home? Do you continue to have to extend the lease for 19 years or is that a one time thing? Next how much do we have to pay to extend and can the home be left for family to extend? Its a little confusing sorry
@@reesereese6510 You never really own a house in the Americas either the government can alway anexx you if they want to and you pay property tax on it even after you paid your full mortgage until you die
I don't like living in barred homes, and yes high walls aren't as secure because neighbors can't see your home, and that's part of neighborhood security.
As a single older person the space and floor plan is perfect. But trying to get to the property was a nightmare. The roads are awful coming into area...if it wasn't for the bad roads, I would purchased it that day.
beautiful homes but i’m curious, i don’t hear much mention of a person never really owns any land in Ghana. I think you only own it for 50 or 55 years what happen next after persons has invest all that time and money?
🇯🇲 I like what you guys are doing there Ghana but I was thinking, why not build houses with more land space , so one could have a larger land for garden or pool 🤷🏾♂️
There are larger houses with space and pools for larger prices 😅😅. Land in Accra is pricey
@@VanessaKanbi well it doesn't have to be larger houses but more land space for expansion, pool , garden etc
@@nevilleg-baby9241ye it’s out there
Developers want to make money so will fit as many houses as they can on the land available. And most buyers just care about parking space.
@@AbdulJawula no one wanna move to the motherland and cant plant a garden or some fruit trees around the house

Can you walk me through the process of purchasing?

Wow very nice Vanessa. Definitely hope you will visit the pineapple farm. Very very nice. Please keep coming out with more vlogs!!

Good to see you back, and you are still on form.
Yes vanessa is back
New sub here! Thanks for sharing, and giirrrlll! Hopefully you can share where you got you outfit from. It's cute!
better price would be 14 - 17,000 USD.

No. In Georgia, my HOA is less than $35 per month. $50 (or $600 per year) in Ghana is a massive rip-off that only foreigners can afford.
Nice to revisit ❤💛🖤💚I like the kitchen's decor.
We’ve missed you. ♥️
This is a great idea. I wonder, is it possible to get a house built there that is more Western style? 3bed/3 bath, or 2 or 3 levels?
Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊
Hi Vanessa,great video as always.I have a ? Why is the land is lease if you buying the house? And after 50-69 years what happens after that and can I transfer to my kids? Thanks that’s my ?

How do you get to know where to find these houses, I'm in Kinshasa 🇨🇩 I want some tips😊
I got excited and thought this was Jamaica 😞. Very nice for those prices.
I realllllly want to go to Jamaica
It is quiet? Room to grow food?
Welcome back
sammy ..you are so nice
Nice but small...42k is a bit pricey. I'm surprised people say it's a good price
Yep, ridiculously overpriced for a very small house on leased land with a high HOA fee. Run!
My parents bought one of these homes 😊
Very affordable 💛
She is extremely good looking
How can i buy a home and move there ? I mean citizenship and everything like I've heard its hard....
You can’t buy houses or land in Ghana you can only rent
So after the 50 years and then the renewal of 19 years, who owns the house after that? Is it no longer your home?
Buying houses in Ghana as a non Ghanaian is always leasehold. Leases are extended
@@VanessaKanbi So you really never own the home? Do you continue to have to extend the lease for 19 years or is that a one time thing? Next how much do we have to pay to extend and can the home be left for family to extend? Its a little confusing sorry

Nice infos; could contacts of the guy be provided, pls?
Do you have monthly property land taxes?

Nice price
What is the square footage of the two bedrooms

Really affordable.
Thank You
The resale value?
Wellcome back to your motherland Ghana lovely beautiful gueen, we miss you a lot gueen
Any loud churches?
Hi Vanessa. Pls, may I know the land's lease period before next renewed? I'm considering the 55,000 property.
Hello all details of the developers are in the description thanks
Pls what is the interior colour?
Are there units still available?
beautiful homes but i’m curious, i don’t hear much mention of a person never really owns any land in Ghana. I think you only own it for 50 or 55 years what happen next after persons has invest all that time and money?
I think you can just renew it, he said the lease has a renewal clause
Where are the local amenities and how far away are they?
Yes, I don't like those bars on windows, not good in case of any fire, you are basically trapped.
beautiful
Is that Ghana money for that price?
Those are roll houses looks like a camp. Good price though
Question: " How much is the HOA?!😊
I want 3!
How can I contact them.?
Just my thought they should have maxumize the land.
Still available?and which location in Accra?
HALLO KAMBI, YOU LOOK SOOO IN YOUR RED OF YOURS 😮
