Construction, Real Estate and Housing

Real estate in Ghana can produce stable revenue throughout the investment period. Areas of population-growth are springing up in and around the large cities where new technological, industrial, and agricultural research centres are built. Large government-subsidized infrastructural projects often mark the way. Investors should always look for a strong tenant base. This is found where there are jobs and general security.

Currently, the estimated housing deficit is 1 million residential units. In the next 10 years about 100,000 units are required annually to address the issue and accommodate new households. The current annual supply is between 30,000 and 40,000. Ghana’s construction and real estate sector offers sound investment opportunities. The business environment is favourable for the construction of equity, debt and/or buy-to-let property investments of residential houses (both high and low cost housing), high rise quality apartments, retirement villages; industrial houses and commercial (local shopping centres/malls, office accommodation, storage, warehouses etc.) and the provision of construction equipment and building materials.
