HDG Homes Limited and Ecobank Ghana PLC recently signed a partnership agreement to, among others, offer mortgage financing to support clients who are desirous of acquiring landed properties developed by HDG Homes or its subsidiaries. HDG Homes is the anchor developer for Airport City Kumasi, a USD300million development project, situated on a 55-acre prime location in Kumasi.
The Airport City Kumasi project represents a pioneering endeavour on the African continent, offering customers a diverse range of residential options, including suites, apartments, penthouses, and townhouses, catering to the preferences and lifestyles of clients. The estate will also house a comprehensive array of amenities and facilities, such as malls, to create a vibrant shopping experience, a dedicated financial district, a multi-storey car park for residents and visitors, a state-of-the-art event centre, well-equipped office spaces, premium hotels, serene parks, a school, and a hospital to provide healthcare services.
With the opening of the international airport in Kumasi, and with direct flights to and from various international airports, Airport City Kumasi will be an obvious destination of choice in Ghana. With its location in the middle belt of Ghana, Airport City Kumasi will be a hub for transnational and intra-country travels.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, Mr Stephen Owusu, Founder and CEO of HDG Homes Limited said, “We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Ecobank on the Kensington Heights, our first development in Airport City Kumasi.
