    You’re correct that the commission should come from the landlord. The agent is helping them fill a vacancy after all. That’s how it works in the US & Can. No tenant pays the agent ever! Eiii Ghana

      You have a point tho but in Canada, the commission comes from the one looking for the place not the landlords

    Thanks so much for this video. I am currently hunting for an apartment and it has been crazy. The viewing fee is now hundred cedis . For any one who is also hunting; be sure if the land lord is willing to take one year advance before paying the viewing fee. Because the agents might take you to your preferred apartment but the landlord might not accept the one year advance.

    • @TheAntwiwaa

      That’s true. Thanks for letting us know and 100 cedis? Wow

    Finding an apartment here in Accra is insane ruff .I suffered before getting my apartment and I was glad it was through someone I got the place.He payed for the agent fee .Some rooms are really nasty 🤮 herrr I can’t get it out of my eyes 👀

    aaahh so if just last year viewing fee was Ghc 50 why then is it doubled now omg . Currently, Antwiwaa viewing fee is now Ghc 100 per apartment view ooh hence if you're viewing more just imagine the total cost.

    The noisy neighbors. That just reminded me that I told myself that I would never live in another apartment. Its been a long time since I had a situation like that but it was traumatizing. I actually moved out because of the neighbors. I had to call the police 2 or 3 times but it didn't make any difference. So that settles it for me. I'm not renting an apartment. I can't take a chance that I'm going to have neighbors waking me up all night. I'm going to rent a house.

    Agents in Ghana are a nightmare ! Wanted to Sign a lease of 5 years on a property and landlord was taking a year advance as it was expensive... the agent was aggressively requesting for 10% of the 5 years lease lol for just showing me the property? Glad to say I ditched the property and got a better one without this hassle
