The Ghana Real Estate Professionals Association (GREPA) has formally installed its 2026- 2028 Executive Board, marking a significant leadership transition and reaffirming the Association’s commitment to ethical compliance, sustainability, and global market integration within Ghana’s real estate industry.
The installation ceremony, held on December 12 at The Hive (ICGC Christ Temple-Tse Addo) in Accra, brought together real estate professionals, regulators, government representatives, and industry stakeholders to chart the future direction of the sector.
As part of the formal proceedings, GREPA Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Victoria Osei Sampah, delivered the official charge to the newly installed Executive Board, urging them to lead with integrity, unity, and accountability. In her address, she emphasized the importance of strict adherence to GREPA’s Constitution and Bylaws, respect for regulatory frameworks, and the responsibility of leadership to strengthen public trust in the real estate profession.
She further charged the new executives to uphold the REALTOR® brand, support professional licensing under the Real Estate Agency Council (REAC), and work collaboratively with regulators and industry partners to elevate standards across the sector.
A key highlight of the ceremony was the pinning of REALTOR® International members, recognizing GREPA members who have attained international REALTOR® status. The pinning ceremony symbolized their commitment to global ethical standards, professionalism, and best practices in real estate, and reinforced GREPA’s role as a bridge between Ghana’s real estate industry and the global REALTOR® community.
Delivering a keynote address, Deputy Minister of Works and Housing, Hon. Gizella Tetteh-Agbotui, called on industry practitioners to embrace green building practices and sustainability as central pillars of Ghana’s real estate development agenda. She stressed that environmentally responsible construction is essential to protecting Ghana’s urban future and improving long-term housing outcomes.
Also addressing the gathering, the Chief Executive Officer of the Real Estate Agency Council (REAC), Mr. Emmanuel Jeffrey, reaffirmed the Council’s commitment to enforcing the Real Estate Agency Act, 2020 (Act 1047). He highlighted ongoing collaboration with the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) to enhance transparency, curb unlicensed practice, and promote accountability within the sector.
In her remarks, the outgoing GREPA President Ms Odette Nyame Kumi highlighted major achievements during her tenure, including governance reforms, strengthened ethical standards, support for REAC licensing under Act 1047, expanded member engagement, several education programs, conferences and GREPA’s growing international visibility through MLS platforms. She described the period as one focused on building strong institutional foundations to support the Association’s long-term credibility and impact.
Speaking on behalf of the newly installed Executive Board, the 2026-28 President, Mr Kofi Adabor Ofori Amanfo pledged to prioritize ethical governance, deepen engagement with regulators, and promote sustainable real estate development throughout its tenure. He further encouraged members to leverage GREPA’s Multiple Listing Service (MLS) platforms, which syndicates Ghanaian property listings to international markets through realtor.com, thereby expanding global visibility and investment opportunities for compliant professionals.
He emphasized that access to GREPA’s MLS platforms remains exclusive to registered GREPA members in good standing, reinforcing the Association’s commitment to professionalism, data integrity, and international best practices.
The ceremony concluded with a renewed call for collaboration between the public and private sectors to strengthen Ghana’s real estate market, protect consumers, and position the industry for sustainable growth.
