Airport Residential Area sits at the centre of Accra's corporate and diplomatic life. Proximity to Kotoka International Airport and the business district makes it a magnet for executive lets and serviced apartments — and that demand is what drives its investment case.
The short-let advantage
While prime long-let yields here are modest, serviced and short-let units can achieve notably higher gross yields thanks to steady corporate and traveller demand. That makes Airport Residential one of the stronger plays for investors willing to run (or outsource) a short-let operation rather than a simple buy-to-let.
What to weigh
Entry prices are premium and competition for the best units is real. The trade-off is liquidity and tenant quality: well-located Airport Residential stock rarely struggles to let. Model both a long-let and a short-let scenario in the calculator below.

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.
