Rent and Pay Monthly in Ghana: Companies Making This Possible

• Renting an apartment in Ghana is a very big headache for many people because of the one or two years of advance rent charged by landlords
• Some companies have made it possible for people to take loans to rent properties and make repayments on a monthly basis
• This will ease the accommodation burden on a lot of people and make it easier for more people to afford decent places in Ghana

Some companies in Ghana have heard the cries of citizens in demanding the ability to pay rent on a monthly basis as is done in most parts of the world. Below is a list of such companies compiled by Yen.com.gh.
