Real Estate in Africa: Understanding the Impact of COVID-19

While Africa had experienced tempered economic growth over the past decade, real estate had emerged as an opportunistic market. Now, in light of COVID-19, will continent-wide investment in real estate come to a complete stop or will we see the sector as a continued investment prospect? How will the acceleration of Africa’s technology adoption continue to bridge the gap in any property deficits?
