Where are you staying? Hurghada is a great place, the Egyptian can come across a bit pushy trying to get you to go into their shops but they mean no harm, a firm no or no response at all seems to work.

Buying Property in Egypt is still an evolving market, considering you will be buying in Egypt the process isnt that bad. Any help i can be please ask.

One last thing, make sure you get a feeling for the area you are looking in, we loved the location of Desert Pearl, its in walking distance to the main promenade and beach etc.

From reading this forum you may feel a little wary, but if you go with an open mind you will fall in love with it like we have!!

Hi Sarah
Thanks for the advice. Actually i don't know who is showing us around apart from it is through a company called International Dreams.
No we have not bought anywhere yet, just trying to get a feel of the place and have arranged a few viewings between 20th and 22nd.
We are staying at the Minamark Hotel on kornish rd ? Don't know anything about it. As you say we will take it as we find it and are pretty open about everything. Do you know how much we should be paying for a Taxi from Hurghada Airport to the hotel ? We arrive at 12.30 midnight from what i have read it sounds easy to get ripped off.
The properties we are looking at are this:
British Resort
Oasis Marina
West Side Village
Harmony Lagoon
Regency Continental/Beach/Towers
Lotus Breeze
Coral Sea Pearl
Desert Pearl
Egyptian Pearl
Pearl Vista

We have been told there is only one apartment left at desert pearl but we are keen to see how it looks now it's finished.

We have also hired a car on the 20th and plan to drive down as far as Marsa Alam if we can. The Marsa Alam beach resort although not started yet looks interesting. We thought it would be nice to check out the area.
Any advice on driving ? is it too far ? is it safe ? Any advice ?

Thank You for the offer to see your apartment we may take you up on it

Thanks

John
