Buying Property in Luxor

When buying property, flats, apartments and villas, in Egypt it is important to buy from an owner with a proven track record who you have some kind of hold over. This gives you power in the business relationship and makes sure your investment is protected. With a strange legal system, in a language you cannot read or understand, you need this added protection. We are that owner. I have a public traceable record going back over 30 years, do have a look at my LinkedIn profile with recommendations for my business career going back to the 80’s, search on my name it is unique, well known and traceable, look at our business recommendations on Trip Advisor, Lonely Planet, Rough Guide and Responsible Travel, and finally read the articles about us in the Boston Globe, Sunday Times and Daily Telegraph. Our business Flats in Luxor Group is registered and licensed in Egypt. We are owners you can trust, with a proven business record and an established business which we want to protect. You can buy with confidence from Jane Akshar and Mahmoud Jahlan

Why Should You Invest In An Overseas Property In Egypt? » PYXISM World Travel

Why Should You Invest In An Overseas Property In Egypt? » PYXISM World Travel: "The all year-round sunshine and also the current accessibility to low-cost flights had resulted in a major development boom within the region.

Traditionally, a location for culturally hungry tourists along with a standing location for winter season sun-seeking European holidaymakers, Luxor has become stirring the pursuits of Egyptian real estate purchasers. Even though a large-scale property development is fairly new at all to Luxor, the possibility for early investors is big. Luxor straddles the historical Nile River and is located in Egypt’s historical heartland.

Each year, thousands and thousands of tourist visit Luxor and where ever there are vacationers, there’s a need for quality rental property.

Flats in Luxor photographs

We were lucky enough to have a professional photographer, Bruce Hemming, come to Flats in Luxor to take photos for a magazine article. He them sent me a PDF and asked me to chose one, how on earth do you chose out of this stunning array of property photographs. He was doing a feature on property for sale in Luxor, we were talking and felt that investors were being more realistic and not looking for a quick buck but a holiday home or retirement property that they would have for years. Property bought and sold on that basis makes everyone happy.

We have four buildings with flats, villas in the Nubian Eco Village and the Upside Down Villa, which is a luxury villa. All these are for sale, prices range from $50,000 to $150,000 USD and all papers are in order.

Flats in Luxor - Al Gezera Refurbishment

Al Gezera was the first block of flats we built in Luxor. We completed it in autumn 2003. We built 4 flats with three double bedrooms. Since then we built Goubli and that had three bedrooms and two bathrooms and that proved a much more popular layout. The biggest bedroom had enough room for a shower room so we decided to put that in and give the whole building a lick of paint. May/June is a very quiet time of year so ideal for this. I have been keeping a diary of the work on facebook, it is nearly finished so will be ready for summer guests.

Villas in Luxor - Nubian Eco Village & Upside down Villa

The Nubian Eco Village with its one bedroom villas are not our only villas, we are also building an upside down villa out by Malkata. It is a delightful location, very cool. Mahmoud reckons the Pharaohs knew what they were doing building out there. It seems to pick up every breath of wind. This was my idea for once but Mahmoud was very taken with it. Put the bedrooms on the ground floor, the coolest part of the building and have the lounge upstairs to get the views. This is going to be a deluxe building, 4 bedrooms all ensuite, pool and a huge lounge. Although we will rent it initially, the idea is to sell it. A great family house in a great location.
