Do this before you buy land in Ghana 🇬🇭 – How I lost $20,000


Do this before buying land in Ghana!

Do your search at lands commission

I did. We even posted a notice on the wall for a whole month.

We did indenture and completely transferred the title.

But lo and behold, when I went to build, I was stopped. What happened? What did I do wrong?

All these and more, coming up next.

There was a court…

  1. Unfortunately, I found many scam alerts across many countries. My due diligence still has a long way to go before I will trust a party to do business with. Good and bad people are everywhere. Hope you will have better luck soon.

  2. You channel is quite informative. I believe there should be a broker involved in property. They hold the funds and release it to the seller after a period of time when all conditions are satisfied. And if anything goes wrong, the brokers insurance pays for the loss. Yes the broker is paid a percentage of the earnings but they do their due diligence

  3. Seems ur a native of Africa and things like that happening, so here l am never been to Africa but showing interests becomes scary for me and may be others also, as ur situation may be one out of many other sutuations, again scary.

  4. Great advice. Keeping this in mind as I have a goal to immigrate to Africa & purchase land (Nigeria, Gambia, Ghana, Tanzania or Sudan, maybe). Will keep this in mind as something precautionary. Unfortunate you lost money. Praying you get some sort of reimbursement & good karma though.

  5. how do you lose money when you have evidence that the land was being sol illegally??? how do you lose money when you know exactly how to find the person you gave the money to??? when you are not sure, place the money in an escrow account until the title clears in full and ownership is transferred. seller gets nothing until delivery free and clear.

  6. This could all be fixed with a modern land commission database that keeps updated records. Shouldn’t have to google court records. It’s more expensive to bog the court system with endless litigation than it is to overhaul the system.
