Part 3 - Buying a house in Ghana 🇬🇭- Lessons from Jamaican - UK immigrant to Ghana 

Wow glad there was a part 3. Her next business move should be as a consultant as how to not be scammed. Good for you standing up for your rights.

As...a Jamaican I feel her pain im so glad she got back her money

I'm super proud of her, as a Jamaican. We do stand up for ourselves

Don't hand over money until the title is in hand, period...that is what I have learned from this story and my own situation buying land through family. Promises are just that, but a real transaction should be with immediate results. Sorry this nice lady went through this but I am glad she found a way to make them listen and got her money back!

Akua RehobothKiller! Thank you for sharing your story and I pray your Ghana dream isn’t shattered because of this experience. You are a winner in my eyes.

Thanks for this update; I've been thinking of her since the last interview and I'm so glad for the positive turn of events. Shame on Rehoboth Properties and all the shady persons involved! People deserve better than this!

I love her strength and commitment! May god continue to give her the strength to be compensated fully!

"These people are playing. Let's start ,now, playing my way. Let me direct the play". I love this woman's shrewdness and discernment! A strong message to anyone. Thank you, thank you and thank you, Akua !

Wow. What a journey. Glad it ended in your favour despite the bitter victory. Thanks for sharing your story so Gracefully. Best wishes with a smoother transaction on the new acquisition. 🙏🏾

What an amazing resilient, strong woman ❤

I TRULY APPRECIATE HER SHARING SO HONESTLY! I'M ALSO HAPPY THAT SHE NOT GIVING UP ON GHANA! STRONG SISTER!❤

I’m not doing court anymore…😂😂. #Priceless. Much love Sister

Greetings Sis from England. I listened to your earlier story and was heartbroken. I am so delighted that you have had a positive outcome. I can only imagine the stress that this must have caused you. Well done for your tenacious spirit and perseverance.

Your strength and tenacity are evident in how you took on these people and won. I'm glad you're moving forward on a more positive note. We Jamaican women are a force to recon with. Good luck in your new endeavors.

This was very informative. I'm sorry this lady ( and she is a TRUE lady going by her composure and overall disposition and tremendous restraint and patience). This lady has done a lot of favors for many people sharing her experience. May God bless her.

Congratulations for going through your trials and tribulations and making it through stronger on the other side. I know they all your future endeavors will be successful.🎉

So relieved to know she prevailed over those thieves. So happy you named them too

She should promote the 3rd Law firm. Nuff respect Bless up 🙏🙏❤️

True Jamaican woman, if u mess me up im nt doing court, she will get u fix !

So many of us have been abused by scumbags for trying to move to, live, do business in Ghana and on the continent as a whole, but thankfully not all people are the same as these scumbags. I find that there is a general culture of dishonesty and greed here, as in my experience, but finding “TRUSTED” people here is a lifesaver. Bigup to the Sista for standing firm.

Thank God She Finally Solved Her Problem Wishing Her All The Best😊

A darn shame what folks will do to you for money. Your own hard earned money. Glad she was persistent, shamed them in public AND got her money back with interest! Respect and good health to you mam.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. Ghana is not a place where I would feel comfortable navigating. The deviant cultural norms exclude this country and many others from consideration for tourism and living. Good luck to you and may you be blessed.

Unfortunately she was not advise that for new construction you never pay in installments. The normal sales contract for new construction is that you pay the money after Construction is completed and you go to closing. The maximum you can pay in advance as an earnest money deposit that is credited to the final payment. If you structure your sales contract in that way you don't have to worry about all that. If on the other hand you buy some land and you engage the services of a construction contractor they want installment payments you should have a lawyer draft some very tough language that will protect you in case the contractor does not finish the job

Her future stories after buying land should be good as well.

May the Creator guide this beautiful sister.

Glad things worked out. I think people considering buying property overseas should consider the following. 1. Speak to YOUR country's consulate that operates in the country you are considering buying in. It is their mission to represent their citizens when they travel or do business overseas. Your state department will also list any countries that have substantial issues including crime, corruption, scams, etc. 2. Report any issues to your consulate. They may be able to contact the government of the country you are doing business in and warn them. Countries will speak to their crooks if it will affect the country's overall business posture overseas. Your consulate will also warn citizens of your country. 3 As it is in most countries, it is probably best to buy homes that have already been built than to buy into future or uncompleted developments. Developers are notorious for lying or looking at the most rosy scenarios when it comes to telling potential buyers when a project will be completed. If you are buying something that has been built and operating already, there will be less issues as you won't have to pay attention to their lies. 4. If it is too good to be true, it is not true.

Amazing story and I am glad she was able to get back most of her money.

Akua thank you so much for Sharing your experience to the public Buying a land to build is good idea as Judge advices you to do

Amazing Lady don’t you dare give up 🙏God bless and Good luck.

Do NOT EVER pay anything upfront until property is completed. Look for Western standards. It should be a turn-key property. If they need your money in order to continue? That's a RED FLAG NO. 1. Especially if they're established with other properties. That brings people in. I get it. However, shouldn't they have their own financing to continue their projects? That's NOT the buyer's problem. Don't hand over anything. I'm glad this lady is tenacious. I'm still watching it

The Ghanaian government needs to sort this out. People will not invest in a corrupt country.

I am very sorry you had to go through all this corruption. I am glad you got some of your money back.

Thanks very much for this video. I am planning to invest heavily in Ghana and this will help me avoid these bad eggs that spoil the country

Good on you madam I am really pleased to see things have worked out for you, Your experience in Ghana has made me afraid. Thanks for sharing, Gods blessing continue to be with you.

I have listened to this lady before and was heartbroken because this is Ghana and a lot of people do this to our own people and get away with it

Thank God this is final, I wish her all the best we need good news from Ghana

The saying that, God want give us nothing we can not handle and you my sister handle all this chaos good!🙏🏽♥️GOD BLESS U SISTER I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU ❤

Fight fight fight. You represent the diaspora

I'm glad you got your money back and all is well! I hope you get to build a nice home and live comfortably! I bought land outside of Accra. Cape coast or other areas! I am happy with what I have built now! Thanks for sharing shalom

Thank you for sharing this story. I'm sure this was a harrowing experience for Madam Akua, we appreciate her sharing this story with us in spite of the emotional stress of ALL THIS. What is the lawyer she can recommend?

Hello Mr Africa Building Hub, please check ur music background,it was horrible we couldn’t get to hear the lady well due to the background noise.Anyway thanks for the information any one coming to Ghana to invest has shine their eyes. 👍

Goodness, I'm thankful you shared your experience with us. My husband and I was discussing about visiting Ghana and possibly moving there from the US... But the treatment that you endured bothered me, and I feel really sad that you went through such a messy process. We still would like to visit Africa, but in another location.

Thank you for the update - had wondered how this lady was doing. Would be better for those who hadn't seen the first 2 parts to watch the videos as the lesson is in the details. Can appreciate that after such a long battle it can be hard to enjoy the victory but after much needed rest, recuperation and reflection trust and believe it will sink in. ❤

Thank you for part 3 of this amazing story and this amazing woman. There was some light at the end of the tunnel for her. Unfortunately there are too many stories like this without a happy ending. Ghana is a beautiful country but the people who run it are useless and brain amputated. They can are less about the Ghanaian citizens let alone foreigners. There are very little regulations and hardly no accountability, there are laws but no one follows the law. The police dont follow the law, they are criminals. Most of the judges dont follow the law, they are criminals. Most of the lawyers dont follow the law, they are criminals with the exception of the last lawyers who represented Ms. Bailey. I am shocked that a judge told her not to buy land in Accra because they are all thieves in Accra. So who can you trust when the system is so messed up and it doesn't protect its own citizens let alone foreigners?....hardly no one!

Thanks for the update. So happy she's been compensated.

One thing I learned in Africa invest in friendship with people in law enforcement because nothing scares an African than you showing up to do business with someone in law as business partner

Wow! I appreciate her (Akua) telling her story and giving us her insights. You are doing a great service to many who listen to this. Many blessings to her and your channel.

Need part 4 about the land purchase. It was very informative. Sorry about the difficulties faced over there.

GREAT ENDING! Glad the LADY got her money back or most of it. Although her initial purchase was for JUST 30,000 pounds or so; it seems like 30,000 pounds in Ghana is the equivalent of over $450,000 (guessing) to an Ordinary Ghanaian based on some of the cost comparisons that I've seen since first viewing this video. The Government there in Ghana HAS TO FIX that disparity SOME HOW or "NOT" deal with the OUTSIDE WORLD. It puts the Native Ghanaians at too severe of a DISADVANTAGE monetarily wise, when a SMALL AMOUNT of money (relatively speaking) generated in a Western Country like 30,000 pounds, but in Ghana that 30,000 pounds put the holder of that money in a very high WEALTH STATUS among the general population. The disparity of WEALTH happens in the United States of America, as well, like some Americans can buy a $500 MILLION "BOAT" while the average pay for workers of the $500 MILLION BOAT "OWNER" COMPANY is maybe (just guessing) $23.00 an hour as to general workers, which is not TERRIBLY bad when many Americans are STILL making $7.50 to $9.50 an HOUR; but STILL doesn't "FEEL" like such a great disparity like in Ghana where EVERYBODY "CAN" "SEE" the great wealth DIVIDE; whereas in the United States of America; you don't get to see that $500 MILLION "BOAT" floating or that BILLION DOLLARS airplane flying; so if you don't see it; people have the tendency not to recognize that the GREAT "DIVIDE" even EXISTS and can believe their $23.00 an hour makes them SPECIAL in terms of WEALTH. Regardless, hopefully the LADY will find HAPPINESS there in Ghana and that the Government will CRACK DOWN on all of that SCAM "RUNNING". And just to be FAIR, sometimes ECONOMIC CONDITIONS can make good intentioned persons look like "SCAM ARTISTS" when things develop outside of their CONTROL. However, communication usually solves that problem when it LEGITIMATELY comes up and the process is NOT a SCAM from the "BEGINNING". Again, good to see her "SMILING"!

Great advise ❤

She’s really pretty ❤

Buying a land is also another headache madam. Watchout and be careful!!!

Weldone you have proof to them you know your way around

Ask her to set herself as an advisor to other people.

Thank you for sharing your story. I admire your determination.

After listening 🎧 to her and towards the end she said I will let you know if you don't know what you are doing don't do it because she said we are not going to court

Hello my sister you have made me feel so proud to be a black woman I live in the US and Jamaican born go up here in the US and my desire is to purchase or build a home in Ghana however I am a bit apprehensive about this journey whether or not to take it what is your advice I need some guidance please

Please mention their names the friend who linked her to the real estate company, the real estate company , the lawyer, the judge etc are all involved. The system is broken beyond correction 😢

Am jamaican we jamaican say once bitten twice shy i would rather take my money and return to jamaica i think jamaica is more exciting dan africa hope best for sister too

Okay....how does Africa tend to develop???

So happy you didn't give up! What a nightmare!

This have been an on going saga... I watched the first, didn’t know there was a part 2/3 .. It would seem to me that she should have gone through exposing these people as was her intentions... I’m glad she stuck it out and have a good ending, but I don’t know if all the stress was worth it ... 💕🙏🏼

Thank the lord this lady has made some progress.

Thanks for sharing

We could send her $1 each!!!! We are over 1 billion alone in the continent. African Americans has a country is at least in 13 place concerning wealth if we were a actual nation. Yet, only 2 percent of our wealth goes back in to our black communities. We feel sorry for her but how sorry! We have 42 million blacks maybe 45 million one dollar each and she could have a major impact in the African world. We continue to down play and disrespect each other hiding behind religious talk without any action or accountability 😢😢😢😢

She has changed so much

If this woman really want to buy land I will advise her to go central region Asebu land is easy to acquire The Pan African Village more diasporas are more there

I have fully paid for my apartment at the same Kwabenya site and they do not even have the courtesy to respond when I send them emails. Can you please let me know the lawyers who helped you finally? Thank you.

The system in Africa so corrupt! Our court! Hmm some lawyers take advantage of thier clients due to weakness of the court system. Some Judges seems not to be serious and feel like they were beg to be judges. Adjourning cases that could just take less than a year to deal with.

I knew it. That company has a terrible reputation

But be careful about the builders too my sister. Thank you

When the money hit your account you have to take it out quick i like that part africa hmmmmm 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My beautiful sister,you can use only one eeg for our great Ancestors if she doesn't wanna give back your money!

I recommend the state housing company.

Well done

This is so sad 😭 ... Because now cause of living and paying lawyers she is still short ...

Very interesting video 😊

Thanks for this. Ghana was one of the places I thought about buying property.

Please share the name of that law firm that helped you so well please

She is defo stronger

Thanks for the videos on this. I'm glad that justice came in the end but this isn't a good look on Ghana. I'm a bit more specific with where the blame goes but this type of behavior will cause many to write off Africa as a whole. I read a comment that she can stay a business to help avoid this but there should be some African institutions doing something.

Congratulations but if you named the thieving real estate company why have you not named the good law firm? I was hoping that you would.

Donald was right with the list of countries

Wow.... Just WOW!!! Does she have a social media? I'm American/Jamaican and I would love to connect with her if possible.

Please can you give the name of the good lawyer for the future

What is the name of the second Law Firm that genuinely helped her?

I wish her luck

She still didn’t mention the lady that organises events in the uk for the diaspora that recommended Rehoboth to her and the first place and later FSB Law Consult.

They know if they mess up it's on them and it will not be a court room issue

What was the name of the company with the Good Lawyers...This is very important

Go to Wode Maya and a house

I'll never buy from the mother land ever no thanks , and I have a friend here in the United States were she say she is a travel agent that helps people come to that country to see if they want to live there and buy property she said she has people who are from that country they will put you up in there home until you decide you want a home there I told her no thank you don't trust it at all

I hope and pray that before this lovely lady buys land again, that she will first get a good real estate lawyer...I highly recommend the one I use...if she needs his contact info, I will share it. I wish her the very best going forward.

Never ever send money if you’re not on the continent……..don’t trust nobody…….deal with people who have legit business license…….do your homework over and over.

Bro, is there a way you can ask the lady to give you the law firm's contact info? I'm dealing with the same issue with Rehoboth. Thanks.

Are you sure you want to migrate to this country? Somethings look great when we romanticize an idea, however reality sets in. Can you live being so paranoid with everyone you meet there. 😢 sorry you had to go through such horrible situations.

Hi, am facing something similair. Can i please get the contact of the last law firm she was using? Or can i please get her contact?

I have been watching a lot of other channels with this building issues in Ghana and if the government doesn't do something about these issues how does he expect the diaspora to invest in Ghana if you don't buck ur big toe then you don't know how the pain feels it is total no sense what is going on

I posted the companies uk information. Public opinion matters.
