Homeownership Fund seeks innovative solutions to Ghana’s housing finance challenges

The National Homeownership Fund (NHF) is set to host a two-day national conference on Housing Finance, scheduled for October 7 and 8, 2026, in Ghana. The conference aims to explore innovative solutions to the country's housing financing challenges, particularly for low- and middle-income households. With an estimated housing deficit of 1.8 million units and only 5% of Ghanaians able to afford a home independently, the conference will focus on addressing structural barriers that limit access to decent and affordable housing.

Key issues such as limited long-term financing, high interest rates, short loan tenures, and inefficiencies in land administration and housing delivery will be discussed. The event also aims to generate actionable recommendations, facilitate financing agreements, and develop a roadmap for integrating climate resilience and green building standards into affordable housing finance.
