New app to track recalcitrant landlords launched

How app works On how the app works, Mr Ilyas said every listing on the FirstKey App is checked against the asking price and the six-month advance rent maximum before publication, removing the need for a tenant to identify or negotiate down an overpriced listing after encountering one.

Recall It will be recalled that on March 17, 2026, President John Dramani Mahama urged tenants to report landlords demanding more than the legally permitted six months' rent in advance, and called for closer collaboration between government, labour, and the private sector to address Ghana's housing challenges directly.

A real estate marketing company has launched an app to track recalcitrant landlords and their agents for prosecution following the government's directive to landlords not to charge more than six months' rent advance.
