Looking forward to 2020 and beyond, Invest-Gate reaches out to a panel of Egypt-based real estate developers to identify the extent to which this year's realty sector stands in stark contrast to previous periods amidst the COVID-19 outbreak, attempting to determine what could the 2021 property market have in store.

As Coronavirus becomes today's new normal, lots of questions are popping up about the new trends emerging on the road to the real estate sector's recovery, especially after the return of physical exhibitions and events. That follows the heavy reliance on online showrooms and virtual tours to practice social distancing in the wake of the health crisis, as well as developers' unfolding of new innovative products to meet the different needs of clients. 

Under the tagline of “the innovation that meets clients’ needs,”Edrees Mohamed, Akam Developments’ chief commercial officer (CCO), shares with Invest-Gate the developer’s vision to create a unique identity for a mixed-use development, which boasts an exceptional competitive edge and contributes to the Egyptian real estate market’s growth and development.

Since President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi laid the first stone of the New Administrative Capital (NAC), located east of Cairo, back in October 2017, the government has been racing against time and construction works are afoot to deliver the mega project as scheduled. With an area of 170,000 acres, the new capital will include 20 residential areas expected to accommodate 6.5 mn people, as well as a 650-kilometer road network, an international airport, an electric train to link it to 10th of Ramadan and El Salam cities. It will also feature 1,250 mosques and churches, a 5,000-seat conference center, nearly 2,000 schools and colleges, over 600 medical facilities, and a park that is projected to be the largest in the world.
