Some key personalities at the event
The global series of The Ghana Property & Lifestyle Expo (GPLE) has announced record attendees and retail estate transactions at its “three continents in three months” event.
Since its launch nearly nine years ago, the GPLE and its founders’ sisters Anna and Victoria Agyekum, have been at the forefront of transforming the real estate market in Ghana driving its continuing boom in investment, property, and tourism.
With residential real estate in Ghana set to hit US$456.10bn by the end of 2025, analysts also reveal the sector will maintain a steady growth of 3.44% each year between now and 2029.
Applauded as a safe and transparent platform for the diaspora to invest in Ghana, the Expo kicked off in Washington DC, in October, before heading to London, in November and concluded in Accra in December.
Diana Afriyie Addo, Head of Trade & Investment at the Ghana High Commission UK and Ireland, and event speaker in Ghana in December said; “The GPLE is not just an exhibition; it’s a critical platform for sharing accurate, transparent information to empower attendees to invest confidently in Ghana’s real estate market.
With Ghana experiencing a property and tourism boom, events like these are vital for fostering sustainable growth and wealth creation. We work with organisations and companies in the private sector like On Point Property Management, which are the engine of growth for our country.”
As the Ghana’s economy continues to grow, its peak in 2024 was Q3 with a growth of 7.2%, the real estate sector is seeing a constant demand for affordable housing due to urbanisation and population growth.
Victoria Agyekum, Co-Founder of On Point Property Management, commented; “Following a successful 2024 for the real estate industry in Ghana, this year is already set to continue the upward growth boom in residential real estate – primarily due to the consistent interest from global investors, the diaspora, and local stakeholders to Ghana’s burgeoning property market.
Accra is fast becoming a hot spot for tourists, and future-residents who are looking for a place to call home, due to its innovation, opportunity, and cultural richness.”
With the support of private-sector champions, Access Bank (Ghana) Ltd the GLPE bridges gaps, empowers the diaspora, and drives economic growth.

On Point director and co-founder Anna Agyekum added: “With Ghana attracting substantial foreign property investors, there has been an increase in luxury apartments and gated communities in recent years. With a high housing demand, and high rental yields which can range typically from 6% to 10% – property investors are seeing a solid return on their investments, and one which will only increase in value as Ghana real estate market remains stable. We are very excited to support the growth of Ghana and witness its boom over the next five years.”
