In this video, we explore a home that you can actually transport from one location to another that is built out of fibreglass and other materials. We walk through two different units with the builder Emmanuel Brown as he talks us through the product, building journey, processes, costs, challenges and many more.

    This guy is a genius, hope other young guys will follow his direction, unemployment in Ghana is as old as the nation itself, self employment is the only way out. Great video indeed 👍

    This is incredibly innovative, and stylish build. The tiny home movement is big in America, and this would be a great investment for an Air BnB, 2nd home close to the beach, or an extra home for international travelers. Excellent video, and I'm locking this one in, to keep in mind.

    Omg, sis I must say I lovee watching your video's you being the most unique interviews of homes to us. I was just saying when we were thinking about building in Gambia but now are searching other countries in Africa. I was talking about houses like these and then you came out with this video omg. I must ask him a few questions I am interested. Our people are so smart and creative. I am so happy for our brother. I really loveee the second one very nice. The first one is too but I am looking at the space more so of the last one he showed us. This was a great video. I will be sharing.

      I think that is the point of a home like this. One can buy many plots for affordable prices just outside Accra and then have this home with a lot of land. Or one can pay a lot for 1 plot in Accra somewhere and then have this home be more centrally located to the services Accra provides

    @isabelisabel4866 Před rokem

    I admire your innovation and creativity however, the quality of construction and finishing work needs LOTS of improvement. The cabinets are rough and now the pocket door in the second unit. It is not closing properly. It might not be leveled because there are also cracks at the joints of the building. The fibre glass on the outside is warped and the paint jobs are sloppy. Before you take people's hard earned money, please consider improving on these. Great effort though.
