Yes, absolutely. Egyptian law grants foreign nationals full freehold ownership rights — the same as Egyptian citizens. No restrictions on nationality. Buy, sell, lease, and inherit freely. All purchases are protected by a government-registered “Green Contract” fully enforceable in Egyptian courts. MAMO handles the entire legal process, from contract drafting to final registration.

You can enter the market from as little as €25,000 (studio in Al Ahyaa or Intercontinental area). With 0% interest plans and just 5–10% down, your initial cash outlay can be as low as €1,250–2,500. For premium areas like Sahl Hasheesh, expect €50,000+ for sea-view units.

The Egyptian Pound has adjusted significantly against major currencies. As of 2026, €1 ≈ EGP 52 — compared to ~EGP 18 a few years ago. EUR, USD, and GBP holders have 40–50% more purchasing power than before. Property prices in EGP have risen, but not enough to offset the currency advantage, making this a historically favourable entry point for foreign investors.

Egypt is one of the most tax-efficient real estate markets in the region:

• No annual property tax on most residential units
• No capital gains tax on property resale
• No VAT on resale of used property
• Registration fee: ~2.5% of value (legal & notary)
• Rental income tax: 0% first EGP 15K/yr, progressive to 22.5%

MAMO provides full transparency on all costs before you commit.
