This is a great country's update news from you, Nana. However, I think you should not market the new properties from the government (State Housing Company) to the foreigners as they have the money to afford these new buildings than the ordinary Ghanaians. Also, the 18 month period of making the $34,500 or $42,550 is not a considerate months for an average Ghanaians. Even, the majority of Ghanaians in the diaspora do not get the $34,500 per annum, so, how can an average Ghanaian who do not earn around the $34,500 per year in her/his own country afford to buy such property? It looks like the authorities in Ghana are building the country for the foreigners. The average people of Ghana also, deserves to live in a nice property and be happy with their living standard as well. The affordable housing should be the most affordable that an average Ghanaian can afford to buy the property to his/her own choice. Thanks Nana, you are doing a great job and keep it up.

As a diaspora person of African descent, i think selling to the locals priced in Dollars is gonna be hard for average Ghanaian working minimum wages. In the West it is even hard to come up with $34k on a regular 9-5 job.

Great video, but I think these home prices need to be lowered to fit the pay of the Ghanaian people. This is only inviting more foreigners in to suck up many of these properties, and sell them for massive profits in the future. We have a program called Habitat for Humanity which is not part of the US government, but is a program which allows one to contribute a certain amount of hours to the program, use personal time to eventually build and own an affordable home. We have to do better to ensure that my brothers and sisters in Africa can afford to live in a beautiful home at a price they can afford.. Thanks for sharing Nana, you're doing a great job putting out awesome content! ❤👍💯

@@latoyajohnson3335a home is a place to live not something you buy to sell for profit. Visionless leaders that we have. They need to see what is happening elsewhere and how the property market is becoming a preserve for only the wealthiest people A house first of all is a home something which everyone has a right to. I am going to use what many have been fooled in to believing is a dirty word but what is needed is socialist housing policies and tight regulation so that houses remain accessible and affordable to everyone and sustainable. Final note, if it takes you fifteen or so years to pay off the place you calll home and after that no more payments wouldnt that be just as good or better than having equity, giving you a greater disposal income and fewer bills. We need to think outside the box.

Why is it priced in dollars? Then it is not affordable. I know the economic problems require more thorough solutions, but this is crazy. If I was Ghanaian and lived there I would just give up hope completely. I don't mean to be pessimistic but how is 180000 dollars affordable? Affordable housing is necessary but needs to be executed well. Before you know it, only a bunch of foreigners will be living in these so called "affordable" developments. Thanks for the update

Unless your location has a minimum wage of 1000 usd per month, no tax on this salary, and a life which allows you to save 70% of it fine even if rent and displacement were included, then it will be very very difficult. Successful business is also about having average people with the right financial power. So this should be taken into account. Seriously.

Agree absolutely how can you advertise affordable housing in Accra, Ghana here, but allow non citizens to buy! Aden, and this is part of problem when greed and making money is motivation. The price in dollars is also ridiculous. I'm an official dual citizen, both my parents are Ghanaian. And based in USA, where I own. And in NYC you can only qualify for affordable housing if you're a local and live in a specific area code. Actually these pictures don't look that appealing with lack of greenery and brown, boring facade colors.

Even those Ghanaians living in disapora and are earning in dollars and Euros still wouldn't consider these ridiculously expensive price as affordable at all? And they're spreading payment for eighteen months and you're here hailing this nonsense as affordable? How many years do people do mortgage abroad that you're on this KZfaq channel claiming this is affordable. There's absolutely nothing affordable on those prices you've mentioned! How many of our mothers in the market place or even graduates working in Ghana can afford those buildings? Yet these are the very people that are struggling for housing day in day out, so stop hailing this project as affordable because these houses aren't affordable to the ordinary Ghanaian at all. Maybe they did that project to sell to those in government that can steal our moneys from the public purse to buy these buildings for themselves and their families and friends. Oh Africa, it's sooo sad. A government-partnered project priced in dollars for Ghanaians that are earning in Cedis, what a pity. Hum Ghana, so will this country ever get better? People should used over $400,000 for just a three bedroom house and almost 14000 dollars for a condo apartment and you're hear claiming it's affordable? Like are you for real or you're crazy?
