FAQ
Diaspora questions, answered
Can I buy without travelling to Ghana?
Yes. Every stage — viewing, verification, negotiation, legal work and handover — can be completed remotely with a properly executed power of attorney where required.
How do I know the property is real?
We visit every property in person, photograph it with a date reference, and confirm ownership documents with our legal partners before you pay anything.
How are payments handled?
Always through traceable, documented channels to a verified corporate account, in agreed milestones tied to delivery. We never ask you to send funds to personal accounts.
Can you rent the property out for me?
Yes. Our management service handles tenant sourcing, screening, rent collection, maintenance and owner reporting.
