I am pretty excited to move to Egypt in the month of October / November this year. This forum has indeed given me a fair insight to what the life will be in Cairo / Giza. My work place will be in Smart Village & I have tried to look for 1bedroom flat near to work - however it seems the online market place is not very active in Egypt (compared to India / USA/ China) or maybe I was not able to find ample options.
I was looking for advise on the following:
1) The initial plan is to stay in Egypt for 3 years - is it advisable to rent a 1Bedroom flat or is it worth investing to buy the same? How much will a 1 BHK flat cost in that area - can be outskirts of the town as well?
2) Though I don't plan to move my kids as of now - I would like to know how has been the experiance of those who have sent their kids to school (class 9th)? Is education good & does it hold perspective later i.e. preparing for medical / engineering collages? Are english speaking schools of good standard?
3) Is it advisable to buy a used car / scooter? Is two wheeler a socially excepted mode if transport? (some countries it is not!).
