The 2026 edition of the Luv FM-Republic Bank Habitat mini-clinic has successfully taken place in Kumasi, gathering major stakeholders in Ghana's housing and construction sector. The event, which occurred on October 29, 2026, at the Opoku Trading Arena in Adum, provided a platform for prospective homeowners, property developers, and industry professionals to interact with institutions offering housing services, construction materials, financing, and interior decoration solutions. This year's mini-clinic was organized in collaboration with Republic Bank.
The Habitat Fair, now in its eighth year, aims to address challenges related to land acquisition, building, and homeownership, particularly in the Ashanti Region. The mini-clinic allowed visitors to access professional guidance, explore various products and services, and consider solutions tailored to their housing needs and budgets. Several institutions participated in the event, providing valuable information and services to attendees.
Key institutions, including the Lands Commission and the Asantehene's Lands Secretariat, participated in the mini-clinic, offering guidance on land-related matters and other aspects of homeownership. The event also featured exhibitors showcasing construction materials, home improvement products, and interior decoration solutions. Companies such as JetSky Roofing Systems and Prestodea Ghana displayed their products, including fire-resistant roofing systems, window products, glass windows, balustrades, and doors.
A representative of the Asantehene's Lands Secretariat emphasized the significance of the initiative in helping the public navigate their homeownership aspirations. The event provided an opportunity for attendees to engage with industry professionals and access essential services.
Dan Adjetey Mohenu, Head of Mortgage Banking at Republic Bank, reaffirmed the bank's commitment to supporting individuals at different stages of their homeownership journey. He explained that the bank's mortgage and housing finance solutions cater not only to purchasing completed properties but also to individuals who prefer to construct their homes in phases. The financing options can support different stages of construction, subject to the bank's assessment criteria and requirements.
The partnership between Luv FM and Republic Bank is expected to continue offering prospective homeowners access to financial guidance and other essential services. The mini-clinic serves as a precursor to the main 2026 Habitat Fair, scheduled to take place from November 25 to 29 in Kumasi. The initiative addresses the growing demand for housing driven by population growth and urbanization.
The main Habitat Fair will connect prospective homeowners with institutions and services across the housing sector. Organizers position the fair as a platform for promoting affordable and accessible homeownership. The event aims to bring together key players in the housing and construction industry to provide solutions and services for individuals seeking to own homes.
