Quick Links For New Members

[Lsab]

New members (and not so new!) might find the following information of use. Instead of trawling through pages of threads we’ve listed those most requested. Just click on the links below:

Please 1st read this link to our Terms and Conditions thread http://www.propertycommunity.com/forum/egypt...ystem-etc.html

For legal advice: http://www.propertycommunity.com/forum/egypt...-thread-2.html

So that you can meet other members and we can meet you, this is the thread for introductions: http://www.propertycommunity.com/forum/egypt...ctions-32.html

A useful thread for a variety of subjects: http://www.propertycommunity.com/forum/egypt...ing-egypt.html

This will direct you to the calendar which, amongst other useful dates, e.g public holidays in Egypt, events etc, will tell you when any members are in Egypt so that you can arrange to meet: Overseas Property Investment Forum - The Totally Property Overseas Real Estate Forum - Calendar

Once you are an active member you can post pics. For instructions see http://www.propertycommunity.com/forum/faq.p...chment_explain

The main forum tends to be more focused on property and the developments but while the Egyptian lounge started as a place for general chat it’s become invaluable for general information with threads on everything from where to shop and eat, to golf courses and cheap flights. If there’s anything you can’t find or if you need help finding your way around the forum please feel free to ask one of the moderators:

Hi to our moderators.

Can you please guide me as to where I can find info on property managment services. I'm interested in knowing whether I should use the property management services of the developer, or I should find my own agent. I've tried to find some threads, but haven't been successful so far.
May be you can add links (if any) in the intro section

Hi there is this one on to rent or not to rent http://www.propertycommunity.com/forum/egypt...-not-rent.html where you could post about the property manangement - some of the posts in that thread do mention it.

Is there any way I can quickly access just the threads I am interested in and check on a regular basis? have a 'favourites' list?
I also used to get emails when a new post was written but seem to have lost the facility!

Hi Leila,
You can do this. Towards the top of each thread there is a menu called "Thread Tools". If you click on this you will see a few options including "Subscribe to this thread". You can then choose to be sent email notifications here.

You can view all your subscriptions in the control panel - link at the top left of the screen or click this link. You can then use your subscriptions list in the same way as a favourites list.
Regards
Bob

I have a problem if I am searching for something. Some threads are almost 100 pages, and if you search for anything in that thread, it gives you just that is in this 100 pages! Why not split the threads in 15-20 pages (or max 200 posts). Then make a new thread, but put a 2, 3, 4 etc. to it.
So if a thread has 100 pages you will then have 5 threads with the same name but only an added number. If you then want to search anything it will give you this special numbered thread, then you have to look only through max. 20 pages instead of 100.
