Many individuals aspire to own their own home in Accra, Ghana. The challenge, however, is that the country is saddled with a housing deficit of an estimated 2 million homes. It has led to a more favorable situation for real estate developers, who can charge a premium for the high demand at stake. Coupled with the lack of building materials in the country, these developers are forced to import about 70 percent of their materials from abroad. It consequently leads to higher prices.
A number of developers have, however, found some solutions to the debacle of high house prices. They have been able to offer some homes at decent prices, making them affordable for many prospective house hunters. Add the fact that they are priced in Cedis and it makes for an amazing experience. Ghana’s leading real estate agency, Dwellys, has compiled a list of some of the best affordable houses for sale in Accra.
