Commercial property — offices, retail, warehousing, industrial and mixed-use — offers a different risk-return profile from residential: larger tickets, longer leases and often higher yields, balanced by lumpier demand and longer void periods.
The commercial case
Business districts in Accra and the industrial zones around Tema drive demand for quality space. Commercial leases tend to run longer than residential, which smooths income — but when a tenant leaves, re-letting can take time, so location and covenant strength matter more than ever.
Mixed-use: diversify the risk
Mixed-use schemes (retail below, residential or office above) spread risk across tenant types and are increasingly common in new Accra developments. They can be a resilient way to hold commercial exposure.

Gross yield = annual rent ÷ price. Net yield deducts your running-cost estimate (management, maintenance, voids, service charge). Indicative only — prime Accra residential typically runs ~7–9% gross (8–11% city-wide), higher for short-let & serviced units. Always verify figures with your own due diligence.
