Hi Margaret, I really appreciate your kindness and the urge to always know how I am doing as well as my family and business. The the local government levies me GHS 1.00 (USD 0.23) everyday as rent for the land. Yes. I am arranging to see if my third or fourth loan can give me the financial muscle to buy half plot of land if not one for residence and my business. Best Regards, Clementina
