“We are excited to welcome over 70 owners to their homes in 2018,” said Teddy Peprah, Managing Director of The Oxford. “Appolonia City is coming together very well, and, with the additional amenities Appolonia City offers its residents, we are certain homeowners will enjoy The Oxford as a community.”

The second phase of The Oxford is 15% pre-sold, with construction set to commence in June. These 93 homes will come with solar roof panels and free set top boxes to connect to the internet, as well as on-demand services.

The Oxford is a residential estate within the Appolonia City’s mixed-use development, with plans for 420 houses across a total area of 20 hectares (49 acres). The turnkey development, which targets middle-class buyers, is a joint venture between Imperial Homes and Rendeavour, Appolonia City’s developer.

“We are committed to providing world-class infrastructure to developments such as The Oxford and believe that we will see more developers situate their projects within Appolonia City,” said Bright Owusu-Amofah, Appolonia City’s CEO.

In October last year, The Oxford received a major boost through an off-plan purchase of 30 units from a British consortium led by prominent British investor Simon Edwards. The Oxford offers flexible payment plans, between 6 and 24 months.

One rapidly progressing amenity for The Oxford residents is Golden Pride International School, currently under construction and set to open in September 2019.

Buyers who wish to accelerate a move to The Oxford may contact GHL Bank, Ghana’s largest mortgage provider, which offers 15-20 year mortgages for The Oxford homes.

Figures from players in the housing sector show Ghana’s housing deficit ranges from 1.7 million to 2 million.

Despite moves by successive Governments and the private sector to reduce the deficit, it appears the multiplicity of the problem makes it difficult to find solutions.

In the first of our new series dubbed ”Ghana’s housing crisis” which focuses on the industry’s problems and how they can be solved, we examine the increasing cost of acquiring land and its availability in the Greater Accra region.

This comes at a time when the country’s previous governments have been trying unsuccessfully to close the housing deficit gap.

This has been applauded as good news to lessen one’s burden of putting up a home. The home ownership package allows income earners who have already commenced a building project but due to limited income spend many years to complete, the opportunity to complete them within a maximum of two years.

Announcing this project in Accra, the Chief Executive Officer of Priority View Homes, Mr. Eric Affaidu said this programme will offer many Ghanaians the opportunity to complete their own homes the fastest way and live in peace of mind. He recounted instances where many people start building projects that ordinarily should take them a shorter period to finish, but due to numerous mitigating circumstances, some are abandoned and others take ages to complete.

He mentioned that the company has attracted building technology partnerships from Malaysia and South Africa, providing the necessary expertise and funding to ensure every project is completed on schedule. He, therefore, advised Ghanaian income earners to cease the opportunity the company offers to build their own homes the fastest way possible.

The company is advising potential home owners to contact them for free expert and professional support by visiting the company’s website at www.priorityviewhomes.com
