THE TENANT'S TOOLKIT

Your Landlord Owes You Money. Here's How to Get It Back.

You paid two years of rent upfront because everyone does. Your landlord's ignored a repair request for three months. You're not sure your deposit is coming back. None of this has ever felt like something you could fight, because nobody's ever shown you exactly what to say or write.

Ghana's Rent Act has capped advance rent at six months since 1963. The average tenant pays close to two years anyway, nearly four times the legal limit, almost always because nobody told them the cap exists. Rent Control only started actively enforcing it in April 2026. The Tenant's Playbook closes that gap with the exact letters, scripts, and filing steps for every fight a Ghanaian renter actually has. Not a legal textbook. A toolkit.

What's inside:

A ready-to-send letter recovering excess advance rent, citing the exact law, plus a negotiation script for before you even sign a lease A repair demand notice that puts your landlord on formal legal notice, with the escalation path if they ignore it A deposit recovery system, move-in/move-out checklists plus the letter template that gets your money back The eviction chapter to bookmark: what's legal, what's a crime, and exactly what to do the day it happens A complete filing guide for Ghana's digital Rent Control portal, plus what to do when a landlord simply won't respond

Every template is built to be personalized in minutes, not studied for hours. Find your situation, use the matching script, and know exactly what happens next if it's ignored.
