Location, location, location plus security. Same facilities can be found in a different vicinity far less the price tag in this video. It's always upto the individual to avoid the big boys neighborhood if you want something cheap. "Accra live by plan".
Yep! The price is because of the location. If you don’t want to live in a prime area rent isn’t anywhere near this expensive.
Hello Vanessa That house is expansive but nice How many months deposit do you have to pay in advance ? Why don't you build your own propety .
Location is definitely a factor but this is extortionate.
But the issue is 2k a month is too much for a city like Accra and out side this property the gutters are probably still open lol
@@mobrown7594 exactly. The roads are still bad. Electricity and water are erratic. Internet is shitty. Nothing in Accra should cos this much
I'm actually impressed with that house. It looks well designed and portioned with lawn and trees; not very common
Definitely! This idea of paving the compound with no green space anywhere simply bogles my mind
Exactlyyyyy my thoughts!
I’m coming home soon, but I’m building in Ghana, the place looks nice, but expensive though!❤️🙏🏽🇬🇭🙌🏽
I got a great tip from this video, the voltage regulator for ACs. Having to bring repairer constantly because of fluctuations. Are you thinking of buying your own house? Expensive initially but worth it in the long run. Let us know how you find monthly electricity payments... Wish you all the best in your new house.
I’m watching from covidy and cold war Europe. I can’t wait to finally make the move to Africa
Same here 😊
This house gives me the feel of the house in your House and Hustle episode you did with Nana Amu.
Hey Vanessa don't give up on building up or buying your own house. Set yourself a goal and stop renting as soon as you can. Owning assets that you can pass on to your kids will change your life. It has changed mine 😉
We love this house! Dreaming about our future escape to Ghana 👏❤️❤️❤️👏
Quick advice. I noticed you said the next place is the postpaid type of electricity meter. Do due diligence in making sure there are no outstanding payments on the meter. Very important.
Hey Vanessa!! Love to see your progress. I have been watching for a couple of years now (time flies). Thanks for sharing this, I always enjoy your videos.
It’s a Red flag for the landlord to tell you not to disclose the price. Like seriously $2.5k-3k is daylight robbery for this particular house.
Very strange, having someone like Vanessa showcasing their property was a good opportunity to get tenants in the future.
He is ashamed of what he is charging clearly 🤣
Because the price is about to increase 😅
Beautiful home!✨👌🏾 Ghana y’all are building some beautiful family homes for real! Loved the natural lighting and the spacious rooms.
Congratulations to your new home with your family. As your viewers we are happy you find what you need, stay safe in, with your family. ✌️💖
Oh Vanessa they didn't tell you if your light goes off in the night with prepaid you go put your card in the meter, leave it in, you'd get electricity for a number of hours till day then you go top up.
It gave 15 minutes we tried that.
@@VanessaKanbi 🤣🤣
Congratulations Vanessa. Keep up the energy.
Absolutely Beautiful 🌳🌲🌴🍂 Afrika 🇧🇴 is the place to be
Ghana Africa is the best no stress better than the rest 👌☀️🇬🇭
Minus the bats, i could defo live there!!! Nice one Nessa!!
So nice and spacious. Congratulations with your new property. Love from UK 🇬🇧 ❤
That’s actually the best house I’ve seen in Ghana beside the greens estate.
Hi queen. I so happy for you are your family, enjoy and be bless
Congratulations to you and your family. you deserve it; you work very hard to bring us great content. we are all happy for you? was it a one-year or two years rental?
She is renting not that she bought it . That's too much money she could save to buy a house in some years.
Loving the house Vanessa, and also loving the way you describe things. Although 2 to 3000 a month for rent is extortionate, no matter how lovely the house is. And the bats no no no. I can see why you are moving on it doesn’t matter if the landlord takes responsibility for the maintenance that is a very high rent. I’m guessing these luxury houses are not marketed to the ordinary Gana a.m. but to expats. Anyway good luck in your new home.
I know houses in Ghana r not for the Average Ghanaian
@Doreen Ayi...you see this is what we call price gouging. How can you pay 2-3000 a month for rent And when we say Ghana is expensive some people with thier dirty politics infested and tribalistic minds will come here to attack you. How much is the dispisal medium income in Ghana? Oh God have mercy on us
@@kofiarthur3749 I think the landlord is aiming for people from outside of Ghana
It's a disgrace how anyone with sense will pay $3000 a month, is this Manhattan or Central London? No its an insignificant backpost 3rd world country. I just can't believe it
@@veraaddoyobo8482 clearly he is. If u dnt hv money u go say is expensive. People hv money o.They cn even use 3k to buy pin sef. Who r we the poor members association to judge?😭
Love this property! 😍
Great job Vanessa!
Amazing stuff! loved it 🥰😀🇬🇭🇬🇧
Lovely house, thanks for sharing. Truth be told, that price is a total rip off 😬 unless you are already proper rich. Most ppl paying that much in Accra get their accommodation paid by employers e.g. diplomatic staff/expats. In fact paying that much for rent from one's own pocket will stop most people from becoming financially independent.
Beautiful Vanessa very nice house ♥️🥰❤️😍👍🏾🙏🏾
I m very happy for you, congratulations from Italy
Very large, well designed house although those bats would terrify me. Ghana has some chic homes.
That place is big.
Thanks for the lovely tour of your old home. Waiting for more uploads Vanessa!
Beautiful house - you are brave because I would have moved as soon as I realized I was sharing the house with bats! :)
Bats eats mosquitos so she made a good choice. I have Also lived in a house where there used to be bats. And i m from the diapora.
@@pripriakua2341 🤣 wow I never knew this
Beautiful house,and looks well built
Hey Vanessa. The key cards are just like in the UK - they have emergency credit. But yes it's annoying when it goes out. 🙄
This house is very nice though.
Very Happy For you Vanessa!
On the prepaid system when your electricity first goes out you should swipe the card for what they call "emergency" it gives you maybe a day's more electricity (electricity usage depending)
Wow, beautiful home!! I love everything about it especially the grounds. Hopefully you will do a house tour of your new home.
Is it 2500 USD or Ghana money? It seems lovely but very regular so doubt that’s worth 2500 USD a month. Can someone please clarify
It was between $2.5-3,000 America dollars
Vanessa if you are still looking for a home to rent, let me know because my sister owns a beautiful 4 bedroom story building home for rent in the latebiokorshie area a few minutes away from the Bishop Bowers school and close to Korle bu hospital and the price is in Ghana cedis and not USD so if you are interested to take a look let me know.
Great move. I’d like to know how you and your husband and kids are adjusting to Ghana from Scotland? Is UA-cam your only income or are you working online? I want to move back to Ghana.
Being a UA-camr isn't all about making videos and monetising them for funds... It's also about getting paid through adverts, paid contents and endorsements... It's incredible hard to live comfortably on UA-cam money alone, unless your videos are getting millions of views.
Thanks for the comment! I have an online job though so I’m okay. I was just curious.
Vanessa this is wonderful ...I'm building at the moment and I am very interested in those blinds I was going to buy the basic IKEA roller blinds from UK which are relatively cheap but the blinds you have there look like a tight fit and doesn't look as if it gets that sunshine Halo around the edges in the morning ......if you know which company does those blinds or if you can describe what kind of blinds they are please share
I’m coming home, soon ♥️
I love the window design.
You are so blessed by this beautiful face frankly
Love your videos so much Vanessa!! Thank you showcasing Ghana so beautifully!! Praying for more success and joy for you and you gorgeous family!!
Love another Ghanaian ❤️
Is better to buy land and build the rent is high.
Rent is Ghana is so expensive
It’s team too much lol
I could never afford rent in Accra. It’s more than my mortgage in the US.
It depends on what and where are you looking for. You can get a 4 bedroom place for 1400 cedis (200 dollars) maybe 1 neighbor or none
Don’t expect to see all the inexpensive ones on UA-cam
Exactly that’s what I thought
@ - Well-said. Thanks for your insightful comment. They are only seeing a slice of what is available.
"they swoop around" lol
Love to watch my girl Vanessa Kanbi
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Vanessa hope you're Good. We really appreciate you sharing you're first rental property.
But Vanessa, couldn't you have built a house on your own after all these years in Ghana? The rent your paying could have built you same property over a two years period of same rent savings. My suggestion please.
Regards
Mr.Bright from Bright&Clara's channel
Exactly 💯
Someone asked her that question in another video and she said the houses she wants to buy, the people want all the money in 18 months and that is ridiculous. Not everyone can pay all of the money within such a short period of time. She wants to build but the area that she likes is East Legon hills and the price of land isn’t cheap either so she is taking her time. I guess when she first came just as the Acheampongs she made a mistake by renting something expensive and now she is learning to live in places that are less expensive so kudos to Vanessa for realizing that it wasn’t worth giving all her money to that landlord.
Nice house, I think the price plus the swimming pool makes up for the price, plus of course the location. Hopefully Vanessa will be going for something less pricey and without a swimming pool which was not used as much as thought lol
We've got pre paid meter in Aburi and we use our phone to top up our meter
Can we stop paying for these high fee apartments so landlords can stop asking for it? This is ridiculously high.
UA-cam makes it possible, but she is not investing her money wisely
@@franzhelge7417 What a very ignorant and presumptive comment! You have no clue regarding her financial investments but make judgement on how she prioritizes her spending 😆
@@ajjunior5528 thank you 💁🏽♀️
I do agree that rent prices are high in certain areas in accra. Hence why I have LEFT this house & have moved lol.
@@VanessaKanbi would you say you would have done things differently if you had more information about the housing market when you came?
Nice home! Price tag 😬 but of course it’s because your in Accra. I’m currently staying in Cotonou…and just like Accra, the homes comparable to the one this video in Cotonou are relatively the same price. That pool looks soooo inviting 😍
Very nice property . Thanks for the tour 🙏
I agree with one reviewer who commented early, it’s more than my mortgage in America… y’all she’s talking about 120 million old Gh money for a month. What kinda regular job is gonna get you over 120 million old Gh money to pay is house every month. Oh well this, definitely not for regulars. I stand to be corrected.
2500usd amounts to about 17,000ghc. So I'm guessing she was paying roughly around 20,000ghc per month.
@@stephenfrank9735 thx for the correction. I’ve been out Gh for a minute. It’s still a lot of money right?
@@estherasantewaa379 yes it is.
Great Video
Vanessa! NICE CRIB! Yeah!
Thanks for sharing
Love love love ur house. In my humble opinion it's better u put that money together every month and build ur own house. It's 2 expensive to pay all that money monthly.
They weren't cash strapped josset dear & this is what many are appearing to find baffling that they could afford to spend that amount renting in Ghana in the 1st place
Hope you enjoy your new house
Can you pls share the details of the community, for those who are interested? Much thanks!
What are you doing for a living?
And you going to start up a business design?
It's cool with Ghana 🇬🇭 style
Do you still plan on buying land and building?
Can you please do a video how to
Start?
What type of house very beautiful
It's quite expensive, without constant electricity, good luck however!
30K a year??? Wow that’s too much or May be I did not heard the price of the rent well ($2500-3000). I’ll rewind the video and get the price right..
🤣🤣🤣 mind blowing right 🤯 it was way too much especially considering that she never told us the true amount that they really paid because the owner asked her not to but she did admit that it was expensive so she does have a sense of economical living when she also admitted that's why they moved
Hi,Vanessa..we love your journey,and hope you find what you are looking for.The AVS device ,which regulates the electricity during dumsor..Is that for each air conditioner or one will suffice for all the units?
Eeeiii $3k paaa hmmm may God bless us all
here first
heyy!
Good job Vanessa! Keep focused on your goals…this is just the beginning! Just remember your loyal early adopters 😂
Vanessa, great video as usual. Could I ask where you purchased your dress from ? Thank you
keep smiling.
Hei it's great and beautiful weldone

Nice house though
I love you so much!
that pool shared with the house on left and right?
Sorry, with all that money, I would have built my own, especially knowing that you plan to stay. You are making other people rich or richer. But nice video.
I was wondering how’s the language barrier is every1 spk ga there or are there twi speakers
How much US $ does it cost monthly
Very impressive
$2500 for a rented apartment in Ghana. Whew! I could never.
2k month Vanessa lol it’s too much, you should have stayed in Aburi
More expensive than comparable areas in the US
She said it was 25000-3000k. Where are you guys coming up with this 2k figure from?
@Lookup2Wakeup facts but sometimes you pay 6 months but still
@@nobs997 it’s ridiculous lol
@@stephenfrank9735 Check your 0s, they are all over the place
Very nice
2500-3000 us?
Accra is expensive. location matters. where’s this located?
One day Accra will be as expensive as London, Toronto, LA and why not!!!
It is already. Akutia Addo already admitted it. Land sale in East Legon is $250,000! Will use that to purchase 4 bed in Yorkshire
It's already more expensive, it's more expensive than 90% of London, only central London could be on par or more expensive. Makes zero sense how there is a market for $3000 a month house. The inequality must be crazy between the haves and have nots
@@kojoelvis1124 And East Legon does not even have proper roads, get people are snapping up so called multi million dollar mansions over there.
It’s extortionate.
@@kojoelvis1124hi am from Wetherby west Yorkshire
US dollars or Cedi’s?
Wait. When did she move back? I can only find the video from 7 mo ago about her leaving. What made them change their minds?
Did u watch that video? I was just on holiday. :)
@@VanessaKanbi oooo i thought you left for good. That makes sense
Hi if you need a Nice design of house i am there. You are good !
2,500-3000 usd?
Legalized extortion in the name of rent
When I ask Ghanaians, they say that's daylight robbery. I don't even get why she paid that much. Even 2000k is too much.
@@Perfeccionista89 Obviously she can afford it
@@nobs997 Well duh. She did leave there.🤦🏽♀️
Rather buy or build a house instead of renting by this stages of prices. Renting a house for 2500$ are 30k a year. I would have rather buy a house for 120k, save money and hustle hard to pay it in 3 years instead of 4, so that that house belongs to me and then I will buy another house and rent it. UA-cam money would not last long. If the internet is shot down, UA-cam money disappears
Lovely house but the rent is ridiculous.
Vanessa 😂 So why don't you build your own property that house is nice how many months in advance deposit do you have to pay ? It's very private nice swimming pool .
