Buying a property is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make. In Ghana’s evolving real estate market, it’s crucial to be well-informed before signing on the dotted line. Whether you’re buying to live or invest, here are five important things to consider:
1. Location is Everything
Where your property is located will impact its value, convenience, and lifestyle. Consider proximity to key infrastructure like schools, hospitals, shopping centers, and main roads. In high-growth areas like East Legon, Adenta, and Airport Residential, property appreciation is more promising.
2. Land Title & Documentation
Always verify ownership and land title before committing. Ask for land title certificates and search records from the Lands Commission. Avoid properties with litigation or unclear ownership — it can cost you more than just money.
3. Developer Reputation
Choose a developer with a proven track record. A credible company like Seal Properties Limited will have completed projects, client testimonials, and legal transparency. Visit their past developments or speak to existing homeowners.
4. Construction Quality
Don’t judge by photos alone. Visit the property (or construction site) to inspect finishing quality, materials used, drainage systems, and security features. Good design is important, but durability matters more.
5. Payment Terms & Financing Options
Ask about flexible payment plans, mortgage partnerships, or off-plan options. Understand your financial commitment and choose a property that fits your long-term goals without overextending your budget.
