Abstract
The Egyptian Real Estate Market is undergoing significant transformations due to increased economic resilience, renewed government initiatives, and changing consumer preferences. This transformation requires investors who take a fancy to capitalize on emerging opportunities to have a deep understanding of the key trends reshaping the Real Estate landscape and laying the foundation for sustainable growth in the foreseeable future. In recent years, the Egyptian Real Estate Market has confronted multiple challenges, including rising housing prices beyond the actual purchasing power of various segments, slow sales activity, and an accumulation of Real Estate supply without sufficient demand, leading to a state of relative stagnation. These conditions have been exacerbated by global economic challenges and increasing in construction costs due to inflated raw material prices.
On the other hand, there are still promising opportunities that can be exploited to revitalize the market. One of the most significant of these opportunities is Egypt's demographic features, characterized by a young and large population, in addition to the growing demand for housing units that meet the needs of middle- and low-income groups. Moreover, the government has adopted incentive policies to promote public-private partnerships and provide financing facilities aimed at creating a better balance between supply and demand. Therefore, the research needs to conduct an extensive study of the current Real Estate Market failures, along with identifying the potential opportunities and potential that could contribute to rebalancing this vital sector. The research methodology involves analyzing the theoretical framework of the Real Estate Market, in addition to studying the practical reality in Egypt by reviewing local experiences and surveying the opinions of officials and specialists, with the objective of formulating a comprehensive strategic framework for the advancement of the Real Estate Market.
This integrated framework requires balanced regulatory policies that focus on controlling land prices, providing stimulating investment incentives, and directing Real Estate projects toward meeting actual market needs rather than engaging in Real Estate speculation that exacerbates economic challenges.
