A real estate development firm, based in Ghana, Devtraco Group, has urged on investors to diversify their portfolios, unlock new opportunities and build wealth through cross-border real estate investment.
The firm stated that rental yields in prime locations average between 8 and 12 per cent annually for residential properties, while sustained demand for premium apartments makes cross-border property investment a potentially attractive and disciplined investment option.
Addressing journalists in Lagos, under the theme “Building Wealth Beyond Borders,” the Development Director of Devtraco Group, Sidney Quaye, explained that cross-border investment provides an opportunity for investors to spread risk, preserve value and participate in the growth of another market.
According to him, the firm was extending investment opportunities to Nigerians and other investors in the West African region through residential and commercial developments built to international standards and constructed with quality materials.
Also speaking, Country Manager, Adebayo Macaulay said the theme “Building Wealth Beyond Borders,” speaks to a fundamental shift in the way investors are thinking about wealth creation and preservation. He added that 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,” he said.
According to Macaulay, Ghana, and particularly Accra, presents a compelling proposition within this emerging cross-border investment landscape. He said the city continues to attract business, tourism, expatriate activity and regional investment, creating demand for well-positioned, professionally developed residential and lifestyle properties.
He noted that their objective is to build confidence, create transparency and open a new channel for Nigerians to build and diversify wealth across borders. “Devtraco Group has established a 30-year track record in Ghana’s real estate development, building mixed-use residential, commercial and hospitality assets across Accra’s major markets.”
Speaking on Marketing connection, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer at Devtraco Group, Sandra Mudzimba, stated that the firm strengthens the connection between two markets that already share significant cultural and commercial ties. “Our proposition to investors is straightforward: consider allocating part of your property investment outside Nigeria,”
He also pointed out that a simple principle increasingly defines sophisticated investment decisions for the savvy, forward-thinking investor: “not build all wealth in one place. Diversify. Build wealth beyond borders.”
Devtraco Plus, the Group’s residential investment arm, specializes in capital-preservation projects designed for institutional and individual investors seeking dollar-denominated returns. Core portfolio includes completed and in-progress developments across Cantonments, Roman Ridge, and emerging zones, each sized for mid-to-large investor participation with structured payment terms and rental management.
