 
Introducing Egypt Property Investment - The Land of the Pharaohs
It is strange that people now think about Egypt property as one of the key areas in which to purchase a holiday home or an investment property. However, you still can't think of Egypt without thinking of history. Even if you visit in pursuit of sun and scuba-diving the story of Egypt - which has the longest continuous history of any country in the world - has been part of everyone's life. Whether it is the wonderful artefacts of Tutankhamen's tomb or the latest Curse of the Mummy horror film, Egypt's culture has touched us all. Since its creation as the world's first state about 5,000 years ago, Egypt has remained intact even though it has been governed by Assyrians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Turks, French, and British until Gamal Abdel Nasser came to power in 1954. It remains a country built around a river - the Nile - but now has a rapidly-growing population and the government has fought to ready the economy for the new millennium through economic changes and massive investment in communications and physical infrastructure.
This now means that there are some fantastic investment opportunities and a superb choice of Egypt property. Here at Planet Viva we have worked hard to research the best Egypt property opportunities with the best payment schemes and of course, the best facilities.

Prime Minister Ahmed Nazif's economic reforms mean the stock market has boomed, and GDP grew about five per cent per year in 2005-06. Egypt's economy is the most varied in the Middle East, with tourism, agriculture, industry and service industries contributing to national wealth. Legal reforms and a massive investment in new roads, railways, airports, telephone systems and training have also boosted the economy. A dozen Egyptian cities are now linked by air to 72 world cities and capitals and those links are not only bringing an ever-increasing number of tourists to the Red Sea resorts but also attracting investors, keen to take advantage of low prices and good quality investment properties in Egypt.

Timeless appeal and incredible investment property opportunities in Egypt
Egypt has been attracting travellers for many centuries. From our Victorian obsession with the heritage of the Pharaohs, from the banks of the Nile to the glorious beaches of the Red Sea, this is a land of great contrast, where ancient and modern life exists side by side. Add clear skies and bright sunshine all year round to nature and desert treks, great scuba-diving and even golf, fishing and birding expeditions and you begin to see why there are scores of unique tourist destinations such as Hurghada, Safaga, Sharm-el-Sheikh and others.

Property investment in Sahl Hasheesh, Egypt
Choose the right location for your Egypt property
Hurghada is one of those 21st century resorts now springing up across North Africa and the Middle East where the lessons of earlier European tourism have been taken on board. It was founded less than century ago as a small fishing village, but has now has gone on to become the top tourist resort of the Red Sea coast and an international centre for sports such as windsurfing, sailing, deep-sea fishing, swimming, and, above all, snorkelling and diving as well as a major area for property investment in Egypt. The warm waters here are home to many varieties of rare fish inhabiting the coral reefs. Hurghada itself is known as a party town, with many clubs and bars making it ideal for Egypt property investors due to the ongoing rental opportunities to holiday makers. It is also a beach resort, where thousands of families enjoy the sun and fun along with golf, bowling and fishing. The resort of Sahl Hasheesh is on the shores of the Red Sea, just 20 kilometres from Hurghada's airport - and it is another step up the ladder of desirability for property investment in Egypt.
Why consider Sahl Hasheesh in Egypt properties?
Spread over an area of 32 million square metres and bordered by 12.5km of sandy beach, Sahl Hasheesh combines all the facilities of a top resort with the bustling atmosphere of a lively port. A real town is being created with top class resort facilities, alongside essential community infrastructure like schools and hospitals. At its centre will be an arcaded piazza with an avenue leading to the Red Sea, lined with over 100,000 fully grown palm trees specially brought in from the Nile. Sahl Hasheesh - it means Green Valley - is also a lively port and 180 million Euros have so far been invested just for roads, water pipes, earthworks and power supplies.
It is home to some of the most interesting developments including Serrenia, a resort designed by award-winning architects Foster and Partners, which is built around what is planned to be the world's foremost Spa.
As well as the Children's Club and Beach Club, there is a stunningly designed 7-Star hotel, an 18-hole championship golf course and a heliport. It is planned that the Marina Hub - with shopping to rival Paris, Madrid, London and New York - will be capable of accommodating even the largest ocean-going yachts in the 330-berth harbour. There is even a new ‘Old Town' being created as part of one of the most exclusive addresses on the Red Sea. All this is on the doorstep of properties priced from just £60,000. The Egyptians describe it as a mega-project that heralds the beginning of a new era for tourism.
The opening of the first few hotels and luxury apartments began in 2006. As there is such great interest in Egypt from property investors there are now companies offering excellent value Egypt furniture packages which are always very popular with holiday home owners and property investors alike.
