Netherlands areaBuying Land in Ghana from Almere, Flevoland
Almere has become a preferred base for many Ghanaian families thanks to its affordability and proximity to Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport. Based abroad, you lose the ability to walk the boundary yourself or ask around the neighbourhood — so we do both for you and send back documentation, not just our word for it.
What buyers in Almere are up against
Sellers and land guards specifically target buyers who can't easily check things themselves — distance is the whole business model behind a double sale or a fabricated family consent. None of the usual local defences (asking a neighbour, walking the plot yourself) are available to you from Flevoland, so an independent check has to stand in for them.
How we handle it without you flying home
- WhatsApp handles the document exchange — the property location and any paperwork you already have, all without a single international shipment
- We send a licensed surveyor to walk the actual plot, then send you the photos, coordinates, and a written comparison against the site plan
- A call to walk through the findings is booked for a time that suits Flevoland — Ghana business hours don't have to be your problem
- Where a signature is needed in Ghana, a proper power of attorney is drafted by our partner lawyer — acting on your instruction, not the seller's — rather than trusting an informal arrangement with a relative
- We never recommend sending the full purchase amount before due diligence and registration are complete
Time difference
Ghana runs 1–2 hours behind Central European Time (1 hour under CET in winter, 2 hours during CEST in summer) — Ghana doesn't observe daylight saving.
Recommended starting point
Most remote buyers start with our Full Due Diligence package so the legal review and boundary survey are both handled before any money changes hands.
Frequently asked questions for buyers in Almere
What's the time difference between Flevoland and Ghana?
Ghana runs 1–2 hours behind Central European Time (1 hour under CET in winter, 2 hours during CEST in summer) — Ghana doesn't observe daylight saving.
Is a trip to Ghana required to buy land this way?
Not unless you want to — everything that has to happen physically in Ghana (the site visit, filing paperwork) is handled by us, so buyers based in Flevoland rarely need to travel.
How do I send you documents from Almere?
Everything can go over WhatsApp — the property location, any indenture or site plan you already have, and a photo of your ID if a power of attorney needs to be drafted.
Can I have someone sign documents for me in Ghana?
Yes. On your instruction, our partner lawyer drafts a formal power of attorney so someone can act on your behalf in Ghana — properly documented rather than an informal favour.
