Understanding Real Estate Law:

Real estate law in Egypt encompasses a range of regulations governing the ownership, transfer, and development of properties. Whether you’re buying, selling, leasing, or developing real estate, understanding the legal framework is essential to protect your interests and ensure compliance with legal requirements.

Key Principles and Sources of Real Estate Law:

1. Law on Real Estate Registration and Ownership (Law No. 114 of 1946): The Egyptian Law on Real Estate Registration and Ownership serves as the primary legislation governing property rights and transactions. It establishes procedures for property registration, ownership verification, and the protection of real estate rights. Compliance with real estate registration regulations is essential to ensure the validity and enforceability of property transactions.
2. Construction Law: Regulations concerning property development, construction permits, zoning regulations, and building codes are governed by Egyptian Construction Law. This legislation aims to ensure the safety, quality, and sustainability of construction projects while also addressing environmental and urban planning considerations.
