Nigerian developers urged to explore cross-border investment

A Ghana-based real estate company is asking Nigerian investors to look beyond their domestic property market and consider opportunities in Ghana.

Devtraco Plus Nigeria made the pitch at a Lagos press conference themed “Building Wealth Beyond Borders.” Country Manager Adedayo Macaulay said the initiative would give Nigerian investors a structured route into Ghana’s premium real estate market.

Macaulay described real estate as a trusted store of value for many Nigerians, but said investors are increasingly seeking diversification, quality assets and long-term value creation outside their national borders. He identified Accra as the company’s main proposition, citing the city’s business, tourism, expatriate and regional investment activity.

For many Nigerians, real estate has always represented a trusted store of value. Today, however, that investment mindset is increasingly extending beyond national borders, with investors looking for opportunities that offer diversification, strong fundamentals, quality assets and the potential for long-term value creation.

The company said the initiative would focus on Accra’s investment case, legal and ownership framework, rental-market dynamics and potential for capital appreciation. Macaulay said the goal was to build confidence and transparency rather than simply sell property.

Sandra Mudzimba, Devtraco Group’s chief sales and marketing officer, said the company was strengthening links between two markets with existing cultural and commercial ties. “Not build all wealth in one place. Diversify. Build wealth beyond borders,” she said, presenting the strategy as a principle for investors seeking broader property portfolios.
