Speaking exclusively to YEN.com.gh, the CEO of RajoCity Realty, Raphael Odjerbio, says that it is important for people to engage the services of a real estate agent because most landlords leave agents to manage their properties for them in its entirety due to their busy schedule.

He added that:

Agents know where all the houses are located, even the ones that have no "for sale" or "for rent" signs on them. Such properties sometimes perfectly match what the client is looking for.

Architect

Excavator

The site needs to be ready before you begin construction on your new house. An excavator's task is to perform this. Large machinery is used by excavators, sometimes known as excavation contractors, to remove existing structures, trees, and other waste from the construction site. The basement or foundation is then dug up to prepare for concrete work.

An excavator could grade the area surrounding your prospective home to guarantee efficient water drainage. Grading is crucial for preventing water from getting near your home's foundation, where it might cause harm.

Contractor

A contractor is one of the important experts you need on your team. They are responsible for employing subcontractors such as carpenters, drywallers, electricians, plumbers, landscapers, and roofers. Contractors also collaborate closely with architects and designers when preparing for the building process.

Interior Designer

An interior designer will arrive once your home has been constructed. Together, you and your interior designer will make your place into the house of your dreams. Depending on your budget and style choices, they can recommend furniture placement, paint colours, and décor.
