Real Estate
Egyptian property is several markets and one statute
A Cairo apartment, a New Cairo compound, a capital-city off-plan, and a Red Sea hotel room are not substitutes.

Property note. What can be held, and in what kind of building. Cities are read on the country hub.
The longer country file is the Egypt market hub.
The assets are not substitutes: an apartment in the existing city, a compound sold in phases, an off-plan unit in the administrative capital, and a coastal room or holiday house. Sinai sits under its own land statute as well as the general one.
Law No. 230 of 1996 is the general frame for a non-Egyptian holding of built property or vacant land. A preliminary contract is not a registered right. Antiquities and agricultural land sit outside a residential purchase. The conditions, and the exceptions, are on the country hub. They are not copied here as a second statute.
