Egypt launches Housing for All Egyptians 9 initiative

Egypt has launched the ‘Housing for All Egyptians 9’ initiative, offering approximately 15,000 housing units through subsidized rental and rent-to-own schemes. The program targets low-income citizens and includes units in various governorates, new cities, and ‘Decent Life’ projects.

To qualify, applicants must be between 21 and 35 years old at the end of the announcement period. The maximum monthly net family income from all sources is set at 16,000 Egyptian pounds. Families are restricted to booking only one unit per announcement.

Applications are processed electronically via the ‘Masaken’ platform. Required financial commitments include a non-refundable registration fee (approximately 350 to 365 Egyptian pounds), a 10,000 Egyptian pound security deposit (equivalent to three months' rent), and a 15,000 Egyptian pound earnest money payment. The application period is scheduled to run until October 28, 2026.
