      Hi Vanessa. I find it difficult to follow the plan/layout of the houses & wonder if this is considered in the future, it would assist me & perhaps others too to enjoy the properties exhibited, more knowing where one is from room to room.
      I hope you don't mind me making this comment. I often find it difficult to follow the trail once inside the individual house on display.
      Taking me across Ghana whiles sitting here in the UK, is thrilling. It is giving me the opportunity to learn about where to locate once I decide to move down. Well done.

    Very nice place for those who don't want to go through the stress of building their own house. All those complaining should understand that most Ghanaians buy their own land and build their own homes which cost much less But it is not easy to go through all the paperwork and getting building contractor and more. Besides there are houses that cost 25,000 usd to 50,000 usd in other videos. 65 percent of Americans own their own house and most of them are financed by banks on credit. It takes people 40 to 50 years to pay . You go by what you can afford or buy a land and spend years building it from the scratch .every country has many options and is ur choice to make

      Sir mortgage in America is up to 30 years not 40 to 50 years. Besides, paying mortgage in America attracts maximum interest of about 7% if your credit score is SOOOOO BAD. With good credit or excellent one, you're getting it for 2.6% currently. In Ghana, the minimum you could get with excellent credit is 15% , so do the math. I just don't know why the so call poor or third world countries should be taken advantage of, in disguise of helping them. I mean why should middle upper class in developed world rather pay less interest and developing countries pay more. This is why Africa will continue to be poor till thy Kingdom come

The whole point is that we always have options and there are cheaper houses woda maya's videos as cheap as 25,000 usd or you buy your own land and build with less money. So Ghana should not be defined by this video because there are options to choose. I also want you to know that Africa is never poor but a developing world and the mindset of the young ones needs not to be saying we will forever be poor but a mindset that say we will change and develop our own land and it should start with you my friend, be the change and play a part 🙏

    Why does affordable housing have to be so confined and compartmentalized? Wouldn't it take just as much effort to have an open floorplan with floor to ceiling windows to give exposure to that beautiful landscape? Ghana has wonderful year round weather, so why not have balconies and outside patios? Thousands of people in confined spaces is what turns neighborhoods into slums if they're not built corrrectly.

    Its a real eye opener to how poorly these homes are built and how overpriced they are. My dad is a builder and went to Ghana last year and he couldn't believe how poorly these homes are built. Based on his advice, I have started to build my own place as opposed to buying ...
    My advice will be to take a builder to these developments for thorough assessments before committing to buy. Also, bare in mind that my 3 bedroom detached house in Oyarifa will cost me a total of $40000 including the price of the land (which is a whole plot).

    The gentleman mentioned an “87 year lease” and a “resident/non-resident mortgage”. Can you explain this more. “Leasing” is NOT owning, it’s borrowing, or renting. I will wait for your response before I fully vent, but this and other planned communities (Ocean Green Villas) in Ghana are fleecing the people! I know the developers need to make money but they’re taking it too far! Two things: first, instead of sticking to OR establishing a Ghanaian style of home, they’re too busy trying to copy Europe and America; second, by pricing in USD it’s very clear that Americans are being targeted so I trust my people to see thru this BS! #enemytryenemyfail 😤

      Why don't you buy an affordable land here in Ghana 🇬🇭 instead.Lands are available in places here Adukrom Hills, Oyibi, Dodowa, Apollonia, Akwepem mountains,Aburi and Tutu.

    Where are the washers/dryers, some type of heating and/or air conditioning system, etc. in the home? I notice in some of these types of videos, they don't put bathtubs in their bathrooms. You use less water with a bath, than continuous running water with a shower.

      That's why it's better to buy yourself land here 🇬🇭 than purchasing an expensive lease house.Lands are available here in Apollonia, Akwepem mountains, Adukrom Hills, Oyibi,Dodowa and Shai Hills.

    Ghana real estates are getting expensive,not sure if the influx of foreign visitors or cost of materials with high import duties are contributing factors. Great vlog Vanessa.
