Meet Yebo Ngulube! A young upstart who along with a group of friends started his own construction firm at 23. Soon after finishing his degree in civil engineering, he went on to have several apprenticeships and eventually went on his own starting Urban Space Construction.

In this episode we also talk about the pros and cons of building a house vs buying a house. Additionally, with homeownership rates in Africa being very low; South Africa- 35%, Kenya - 15% and Nigeria - 25% we also ask whether all Africans should really aspire to be homeowners.
