Answers Before You Ask

You purchase your home. The land it stands on is held under a 99-year master lease, in accordance with Ghanaian land law, not sold to you separately. There is no public land-price table because land is not sold on its own. Upon full payment:

• Ghanaian citizens receive a 98-year sublease
• Non-Ghanaian citizens receive a 50-year sublease

Both include renewal options in accordance with applicable Ghanaian land legislation. This isn’t a restriction specific to Ubuntu or to non-Ghanaians: no one can hold freehold title to land in Ghana, including Ghanaian citizens. Under Ghanaian land law, all land is held under leasehold, so a lease structure is simply how land ownership works here for everyone. See How It Works for the full explanation.

Starting prices range from £24,150 for the 1 Bed Ubuntu Eco Lodge up to £85,100 for the 5 Bed 5 Bath Ubuntu Eco Home, shown alongside each home on The Homes. These are starting prices, and your final price depends on:

• The home you choose
• Plot size
• Design preferences
• Finishes and customisations

Full pricing detail for every home is set out in the Ubuntu Home Catalog. The deposit is 25% of your chosen home, and payment plans are available. We don’t offer financing or guaranteed special arrangements, but in your Relocation Strategy Session we can explain the available homes, the options for your deposit and your next steps.

Phase Two requires a 25% deposit of your chosen home’s price, and payment plans are available for the deposit. Your deposit is fully credited toward the purchase of your home and land allocation, covering your home and compound together with your share of the community’s roads, shared facilities, green spaces and amenities, and allows you to select your preferred plot or plots within the community.

It is not the full cost of your home. It is not a purchase of land, as the land is held under lease.

The process is designed to be simple and well supported, from your first look to breaking ground.

1. 1Explore Ubuntu and the homes, and book a Relocation Strategy Session if you would like personalised guidance.
2. 2Choose the home that's right for you from the Ubuntu Home Catalog, or work with our team on a custom design.
3. 3Confirm your plot allocation, then sign and return the relevant paperwork.
4. 4Secure your place with a 25% deposit (payment plans available), via international bank transfer if you are overseas.
5. 5Receive regular project updates as development and construction progress through construction phases.
6. 6Our team, together with our Ghanaian real estate lawyers and BTA Developments Africa, prepares your land allocation and lease documentation.

Yes. You don’t have to be physically in Ghana every week to stay involved in your build. Our team manages the home build and keeps you involved throughout, including:

• Regular project updates
• Build images and the latest development updates
• The ability to ask questions at any time
• Calls with your dedicated project lead

This doesn’t mean you have no responsibility: you’ll still need to sign paperwork and make payments according to the agreed journey, but distance doesn’t need to hold you back.

Yes. There are several schools in the surrounding area, with the closest approximately 5 minutes away. Visitors can view nearby schools in the Location section of the website.

Many future residents have expressed interest in alternative education models, including a community-based micro-school. This is part of Ubuntu’s future vision and is not yet operational.

We encourage contribution in the spirit of Ubuntu: “I am because we are.”

Contribution is voluntary and can look different for everyone. Examples include:

• Sharing professional skills
• Helping a neighbour
• Exchanging produce with other residents
• Participating in community activities

Our goal is to create a peaceful, supportive, and low-pressure environment.
