Speaking at AmCham Egypt’s Annual Real Estate Conference, “Egypt Rising: Real Estate as a Regional Powerhouse,” Amer compared Egypt’s current stage of development to India’s position 20 years ago. Amer rejected claims that Egypt’s real estate prices are inflated, arguing that valuations should be assessed in U.S. dollars rather than local currency. “These figures show Egypt offers premium real estate at roughly 30% of European prices and at half—or less—of GCC levels,” he said. Fathy also highlighted a structural transformation in commercial real estate, where the market has shifted from a landlord-driven model to one increasingly favoring tenants and occupiers. The executives concluded that Egypt’s real estate sector is evolving into a more mature, competitive, and globally integrated market—where long-term success will be defined by execution, innovation, integrated development, and customer-centric design, rather than speculative pricing alone.
