I currently work in Alexandria, Egypt, and will be moving to work for an assignment in Cairo. I'll be looking for a place to live around Garden City. I contacted a couple of people listing a flat in Garden City but none seems to be available at the moment, unfortunately.
If anybody could offer some help, that will be great. In any case, glad to know you all.

it is according to the fields ( skills ) and city you plan to move to in Egypt
I'm here looking for advice on a situation I'm hoping someone may be able to help me with or point me in the right direction to resolve.
I hope everyone is safe and taking care of themselves during this madness in the world right now.
What is your question, I mean what advice you looking for?
I am new to this forum, and I just joined a couple of weeks ago and I am already find it the forum interesting.
I am a Greek/British citizen and have lived in both Greece and England for a number of years.
I have also had the wonderful opportunity to work on a large scale Engineering project in Cairo 2 years ago and I since really liked Egypt and the culture and the lifestyle and I have been traveling to Egypt on numerous times since. I have also made some good friends and last but not least, I have met my beautiful Egyptian fiancee.
I am planning to move in a more semi-permanent way in between Egypt and England in the next few months and I already know a lot about Egypt and I am currently learning Arabic too.
Yeah, that is all really about me, for now I guess.
Many thanks

My name is Ameir. I live in the US and I have been wanting to find marketing opportunities for work in Egypt (mainly Cairo, New Cairo, or the Red Sea). I have been to Egypt almost every summer since I was a child so I am somewhat familiar with the market. (I am half Egyptian). Having worked in marketing for over 6 years, I bring a wealth of knowledge in producing marketing strategies that maximize exposure and garner actionable results. I am very creative and have a knack for creating content that engages and nurtures current and potential audiences.
As you can see I am fluent in English and I am improving on my Arabic. I would love to connect with anyone in the group on opportunities and strategies for making a move to Egypt.
Hope to connect with you all soon.
All the Best,
Ameir

You well enjoy living here but not before you come and check it out... Talk to people...

I can help you as much as possible as I have too many connection in many places, APT's over here could range from 500000 to 3 million Egyptian pound depend on size, locations and so for...

2. Based on price of apt, taxes for real states is what ever over 500000, meanwhile is calculated in total price of the place, location, and do v for.
3. As I said be careful, don't buy from far, see the place (for example they well sale to you what they call filla inside appt complex, but in reality it's not, they well sale the garage under the apt for you and after word they inform you to deal with the government...
4. Come in a visit check out all options, then take action.
5. If you need help contact me, I will an American who discovered too many things, and house to deal with all, as I opened a company, purchased place and leaned many things.
Thank you
