Egypt Luxury Real Estate
Egypt Luxury Real Estate grew through the first nine months of 2026. Contracted sales reached EGP 1.065 trillion between January and September, up 2 percent on the same period last year, according to figures from The Board Consulting reported by Daily News Egypt on November 8, 2026. About 52,000 homes were sold, 4 percent more than a year earlier.
Average values rose as well: the weighted average ticket climbed 7 percent to about EGP 21.9 million, across villas, chalets and apartments in the country's best-known new communities.
North Coast leads the market
The Mediterranean North Coast, the long stretch of white sand west of Alexandria, was the star of the year. It took 43 percent of all sales, EGP 462 billion, an increase of 35 percent. East Cairo followed with EGP 425 billion, up 16 percent, and together the two areas accounted for 83 percent of the market.
The North Coast has grown from a summer escape for Cairo families into one of the most sought-after addresses for North Coast Egypt property, with resort towns such as Marassi, New Alamein and Ras El Hekma rising along the shore. Our guide to Egypt Luxury Real Estate and the North Coast explains the main communities, and our guide to El Alamein, Ras El Hekma and the North Coast resorts describes the coast for visitors.
Developers behind the figures
Three developers led the year. Talaat Moustafa Group recorded EGP 290 billion in sales, helped by its SouthMed project on the North Coast and its expansion into Saudi Arabia and Oman. Palm Hills Developments followed with EGP 198 billion, supported by its new project at Ras El Hekma, and Emaar Misr, the Egyptian arm of Dubai's Emaar Properties, recorded EGP 115 billion, with a focus on premium single-family homes.
Hyde Park Developments and Founders each recorded EGP 91.4 billion, and Modon Misr EGP 91 billion. Mountain View, Tatweer Misr, La Vista Developments, Madinet Masr, G Developments and Art Life completed the top ten.

Looking ahead to 2027, the report expects developers to offer a wider choice of unit sizes and payment plans, and to focus new launches on the locations where buyer interest is strongest, the coast among them.
The North Coast is at its liveliest from June to September, when the beach clubs and marinas are full, and quieter and gentler in spring and autumn. Many buyers combine a viewing trip with a few days in Cairo and Alexandria. Our Egypt luxury vacations guide covers the Pyramids, the Grand Egyptian Museum and a Nile cruise, and the Journal recently reported on the 185 hotel projects and 46,000 new rooms under way across the country.
For a stay on the coast itself, Rixos Premium Alamein, on the beach at New Alamein, and the resorts around the Marassi marina are good bases for exploring the new communities, and Alexandria, with its corniche and its great library, is an easy drive east along the coast road.
