Supply and demand

On the outskirts of Cairo, across the street from gated compounds where residents play golf on an 18-hole course, plush apartments sit vacant without buyers. As their luxury fittings gather sand blown in from the surrounding desert, many Egyptians say they cannot afford a home in the city of 20 million, where buildings are huddled so close together the only view is often of their neighbour’s kitchen.

At the bottom end, millions live in the shantytowns that line Cairo’s h...

A holiday playground

The poor press suffered by Spain is perhaps another country’s gain. With the pound strong and the dollar week, the attention of foreign property salesmen has focused particularly on Britain. There are now opportunities in Cape Verde, Brazil, Panama, Borneo even – but most for these destinations are well over five hours away by plane.
Recently I visited Egypt to check out the Red Sea Riviera, the much trumpeted holiday playground which the government is intent on building int...

A new investment phenomenon

Since the property boom in Spain in the late 1980s, many people have been on the lookout for a holiday home in the sun; as they are realising the considerable amount of equity their property has gained in a short number of years. Effective property investment requires much more than striking it lucky in one market. It’s about calculating risks and estimating growth and returns. So, where should one buy next?

Egypt

Think of Egypt and most people immediately picture the Great Pyramids. Yet while these are reason enough to visit the country themselves, there is so much more to this vast and enchanting land. The Egyptians have inhabited it since the rest of the world’s civilisations were still in metaphorical diapers and over five thousand years of history is inscribed in its ancient tombs and monuments. Contemporary Egypt is no less fascinating, as beneath the apparent chaos of the streets of Cairo ...
