Real Estate Agents Should Undergo Training—Expert
The real estate industry in Ghana has seen an influx of agents serving as a connection between property owners and house-hunters. This has prompted the need for knowledgeable and well-organized professionals who can assist house hunters make the right decisions in respect of choosing a home.
The Ghana Real Estate Professional Association (GREPA), a body of professional agents and brokers was formed two years ago to streamline the industry. With the view of ensuring a more transparent and professional sector, GREPA has been sensitizing members on these needs.
However, the Co-founder and associate of GREPA, Mr Jules E. Williams gave a damning assessment of the current situation involving the real estate agency sector. According to him, agents are “the eyes and ears of the industry. But unfortunately in Ghana, because of a lot of agents' and brokers' approach, we are perceived to be a nuisance rather than an asset.”
Mr Williams highlighted the need for agents to undergo training in order to ensure quality service within the industry.
