Description: Content creator @eaafriyie shares the three biggest shocks she experienced renting/buying in Ghana as someone coming from America. First, she explains that rent is often paid one to two years upfront, which can be surprising for newcomers used to monthly leases. Second, she notes that realtors in Ghana charge a fee just to show you the property, a practice that differs from what many Americans are familiar with. Finally, she highlights the absence of standard mortgage companies, meaning most people rely on savings, private financing, or long-term planning to secure a home. Her video gives a clear and honest look at what to expect when renting in Ghana as an American.
