Buying appartment in Hurghada by 25knots
First I would like to say hi to everyone I'm looking for some advice with regards buying an apartment or studio in Hurghada. I'm big into kiteboarding and visited Egypt for the first time in 2012 and basically fell in love with the place 9 ...
There's no guarantee about anything over here, so I would avoid off-plan in general (although some reliably finish - eg, Tiba, Orascom. I bought and ended up spending more than I intended but am happy with my decision (so far). I would think very ... Read More

Arumat - you sound like a lovely guy and I wish you all the best! Come over and hunt around for jobs, if you can, and take it from there, perhaps.... inshallah Read More

I know it's expensive, and am not sure it's even possible for you, but would you be able to come over to Egypt (whereabouts do you want to live?) for at least a few weeks to see what it's like? It will be very difficult for you to get a job over ... Read More
Visiting Hurghada and safety by jeanie99
Hi everyone Looking to receive some advice for our stay, My husband and I are an English couple in our late 60s with a 6 week visit planned starting 4th January 3 weeks in Hurghada and 3 weeks in Sharm el Sheik. We read yesterday that there have ...
I've not really been following the news, but I live in Sahl Hasheesh, near Hurghada. My impression is that in the resort areas nothing has changed. I have a friend staying for a month in central Hurghada and he hasn't reported any problems. I was in ... Read More
where to buy a property in Hurghada by gjcktori954
Hi people. I am moving from the UK to Hurghada hopefully sometime this year.. all dependent on selling my house. I notice one or two of you have bought apartments already in Hurghada. I have been told about an area called Megawish. can anyone ...
Yes, I'm moving over in September. It's quite scary having to sell everything (my flat is fully furnished and I've heard if you ship stuff over, you pay a load of tax and/or it goes missing). Still not sure how to do that at the moment. I will ... Read More

Some great posts here with excellent advice. Thank you everyone! I was over recently - I took just 4-5 days as I didn't want to take too much time off work, but I wish I'd had longer. Mostly because it was exhausting and was like a full-time job ... Read More

Sandra - others have covered the maintenance expenses; there will also be legal fees, of course, if you buy. Another thing I've learnt whilst reading around is that if you are one of the first to move into a completed property, particularly a large ... Read More

Interesting posts. I go over in early March and may still take the option to rent and not buy (the advantage of buying is not having to move twice - you always accumulate, wherever you are). It's difficult to offset impending currency devaluation ... Read More
Residency visas by movinghome
Up until recently, it used to be that you were entitled to a residency visa if you bought a property of 50k USD However, I can't see this on the official visa site and a developer has told me that buying a property does not entitle you to a ...
Yes, I'd heard that the 50k in bank account rule was gone. I'd also heard that properties in "compounds" don't qualify, but I'm not too sure exactly what this means (eg, El Gouna or also large apartment sites with facilities such as gyms or do they ... Read More

Hi Sandra, Yes, I'm looking with Rivermead, Sun Homes, and 1stChoiceGlobalProeprties. I've probably been a bit unfair on Turtle Beach. It's been my favorite pick for a while, and completion on Phase 1 is due in Dec 2014, I think. I was going to ... Read More

Hi Sandra, All I know is that the Tiba residences seem to have a good reputation for being built ahead of schedule. I've seen posts (here) from some people who seem happy with the Tiba projects. I will report back from my site visit (let me know if ... Read More

I'm off for a site visit in March - currently considering Al Ahyaa, Makadi Bay Resort, Al Helal, and Sahl Hasheesh. Are these areas safe? I believe getting out of Makadi Bay or Sahl Hasheesh may be difficult apart from by taxi and I fear that Sahl ... Read More
