Building in Ghana and in other parts of Africa is a dream most diasporans pursue. It indeed gives the sense of accomplishment. But this endeavor can be very discouraging every step of the way. In Accra, the cost variations in building can be confusing. And finding the right builder can be a challenge. The price of land, cost of building materials and the extent to which builders and ordinary people swindle you is beyond comprehension. The decentralized housing industry presents a challenge to anyone trying to build in that part of the world. Lately the cost of real estate has also gone through the roof. 3-4 bedroom houses could cost you $300,000 to $400,000 in the so-called prime areas and whether youβre self-building or using a contractor. When it comes to finding good information on building in Ghana there are gaps and this Chanel will attempt to bridge some of those gaps. However this channel will not romanticize the Ghana experience. Email: [email protected].
