Azad Views Compound New Cairo occupies a plot directly behind the American University in Cairo, inside a pocket of New Cairo (Fifth Settlement) where the roads, retail and neighbouring communities are already finished rather than still on a masterplan. Tameer Real Estate Development built the project across roughly 19 acres and kept the footprint deliberately light, dedicating the larger share of the land to landscape, water features and open greenery. The residential offer runs from 105 to 406 square metres in apartments and penthouses, with two to four bedrooms.

Unit prices open at EGP 13,000,000, updated June 2026, and Tameer accepts a down payment from 8% with instalments stretching to 10 years. That combination points the project at families who want a finished address rather than a construction site, and at buyers comparing a mature inner location against the newer plots pushed further east along the same axis. The sections below break down the address, the developer, the unit mix, the money, and what the numbers mean for a buyer weighing this compound against its neighbours.

Where exactly is Azad Views located in New Cairo?

Azad Views Compound New Cairo sits immediately behind the American University in Cairo in the Fifth Settlement, five minutes from 90th Street and ten minutes from Katameya Downtown. Cairo International Airport is fifteen minutes away and the New Administrative Capital about forty, placing the compound between two active demand poles.

The address matters more than the usual location paragraph suggests, because it is an infill plot rather than a frontier one. Everything a household uses daily already exists in the ring around it: the American University campus, the schools and clinics that cluster along South 90th Street, and the retail strips that grew there over the past decade. A buyer moving into Azad Views does not spend the first three years after handover waiting for a district to mature, which is the standard trade-off on the newer land releases further along the Suez and Mohamed Naguib corridors.

90th Street functions as the commercial and administrative spine of the Fifth Settlement, carrying bank branches, medical centres, restaurants and office buildings along its length. Five minutes of separation is close enough to reach that spine on a weekday errand yet far enough that the compound does not absorb its evening traffic. Katameya Downtown, ten minutes out, covers the larger retail and cinema trips, so the two together handle most of what a resident would otherwise drive across the city for.

90th Street: 5 minutes
Katameya Downtown: 10 minutes
Cairo International Airport: 15 minutes
New Administrative Capital: about 40 minutes
American University in Cairo: directly adjacent

Mountain View iCity New Cairo and Hyde Park New Cairo sit in the same catchment, and both are routinely used as the price-per-metre reference for this stretch of the Fifth Settlement. Being surrounded by them puts Azad Views inside a well-mapped pricing band instead of an untested one, which is useful for a buyer: the comparable unit exists, its asking price is public, and the gap can be measured rather than guessed. The forty-minute run to the New Administrative Capital also keeps the compound viable for households where one earner has already relocated to the new government or business districts.

Tameer Real Estate Development, the company behind the project

Tameer Real Estate Development was founded in 1945 under the name DECC, an abbreviation covering development and engineering consultancy, which makes it one of the earliest firms to work in Egyptian housing and construction. Over more than eight decades the company has handed over upwards of 27,000 residential units, and it currently has around 750 further units in development. Very few developers active in New Cairo can point to a delivery record measured in five figures rather than in launched phases.

That history changes the risk profile of the purchase. The central worry on any off-plan unit in Egypt is not design or amenities but whether the developer finishes and hands over on schedule, and a firm with 27,000 completed units has already demonstrated the cash-flow discipline and contractor relationships that finishing requires. For a buyer choosing between a newly formed developer offering a lower price per metre and Tameer offering a higher one, the premium here is effectively a payment for completion certainty.

The Tameer portfolio spans residential and hospitality assets across several urban communities. It includes Azad New Cairo, the original compound that Azad Views extends, along with Diar October, Urban Business Lane in New Cairo, Capital Dream in the New Administrative Capital, Tala and Le Roi. On the hotel side the company delivered the Oberoi in Aswan and Le Méridien in Cairo. Operating across New Cairo, 6th of October and the New Administrative Capital, and across housing and hospitality, gives the firm a broader execution base than a single-city residential developer.

A 19-acre masterplan built on low density

The compound spans approximately 19 acres, and the allocation of that land is the defining design decision. Most of the site went to landscaping, artificial lakes and green areas, leaving a comparatively small share for the residential buildings themselves. A low built-up ratio converts into fewer households per acre, shorter shared corridors, less pressure on parking and pools, and a materially quieter community than a high-yield layout on the same plot would produce.

The buildings were positioned so that units look onto the lakes and the gardens running the length of the compound rather than onto one another. Facade orientation was varied across the blocks specifically to stop a repeated window-to-window relationship between neighbouring units, which is the most common complaint in dense gated developments once they fill up. The practical result is that a mid-floor apartment here retains an open outlook instead of losing it to the next phase.

This density choice is also what justifies the price band. In a closed compound, the value of a unit tracks the ratio of open space around it almost as closely as it tracks the internal square metres, because that open space is what the resident is paying a premium over an equivalent apartment outside the gates to obtain. On 19 acres with the majority in landscape, the open-space share per unit at Azad Views is the attribute doing the heaviest lifting in its pricing.

Azad Walk, the pedestrian spine inside the community

Within the wider Azad grounds sits a distinct mixed-use component called Azad Walk New Cairo, planned as a pedestrian promenade lined with residential units and everyday services. The buildings along it overlook the walkway and the green areas rather than a road, and the promenade physically connects the original Azad compound with the Azad Views phase, so the two read as one walkable neighbourhood instead of two fenced parcels.

A 145 square metre unit inside Azad Walk starts at EGP 17,359,828. That places it above the entry apartment in the main phase, and the gap reflects what the position buys: direct frontage onto the promenade, immediate access to the retail and food outlets along it, and a car-free approach to the front door. For buyers who value daily footfall and a short walk to a coffee shop over maximum privacy, Azad Walk is the part of the community to look at first.

Unit types, sizes and bedroom counts

The compound offers two unit categories, apartments and penthouses, sized from 105 to 406 square metres with two, three or four bedrooms. There are no standalone villas, townhouses or twin houses in the mix, which is a deliberate narrowing rather than a gap: the whole scheme is built vertically around the landscape rather than spread across it. Selected ground-floor apartments carry a private garden, giving families the outdoor extension they would normally have to buy a villa to obtain.

Unit type	Bedrooms	Size (m²)	Price (EGP)
Apartment	2	105, 145	13,000,000, 19,300,000
Apartment	3	166, 247	20,500,000, 31,000,000
Penthouse	3	158, 195	22,300,000, 25,000,000
Penthouse	4	301, 406	32,600,000, 42,000,000

The two-bedroom apartments between 105 and 145 square metres form the entry tier and open at EGP 13,000,000. They target first-time buyers inside the Fifth Settlement and small families, and a portion of them come with an attached garden. A 191 square metre garden apartment is quoted separately from EGP 24,800,000, which shows how much the ground-floor outdoor allocation adds on top of the internal area.

Three-bedroom apartments run from 166 to 247 square metres and start at EGP 20,500,000, covering the established family that needs a third room for children or a home office. The penthouses occupy the upper floors and trade internal efficiency for outlook: the three-bedroom penthouse spans 158 to 195 square metres, while the four-bedroom penthouse reaches 406 square metres and tops the compound at EGP 42,000,000. That largest layout is the only option here for a buyer who wants villa-scale space without leaving the vertical format.

How much does a unit at Azad Views Compound New Cairo cost per metre?

Prices at Azad Views Compound New Cairo start from EGP 13,000,000, with the average instalment price per metre falling between roughly EGP 106,000 and EGP 132,500 depending on unit type, bedroom count and position inside the compound. Figures were updated in June 2026 and cover apartments and penthouses alike.

The spread between the two ends of that per-metre range is where the actual negotiation happens. Smaller apartments carry the higher rate per square metre, since the fixed value of a compound address is divided across fewer metres. The four-bedroom penthouse moves toward the lower end of the range precisely because its 301 to 406 square metres dilute that fixed component, which is why the largest unit in the compound is not automatically the most expensive per metre.

Position inside the site adds a second layer. Units fronting the lakes and the landscape spine price above units set back from them, and promenade-facing stock in Azad Walk prices on its own logic. Anyone comparing two quotes at Azad Views should therefore check the view assignment and floor level before reading a price difference as a discount, because the per-metre band already assumes those variables.

Down payment and instalment plans

Tameer released more than one payment structure so that the compound reaches several budget tiers rather than one. The down payment begins at 8% and the instalment period extends to 10 years, with maintenance charged at EGP 1,500 per square metre. The three published plans are:

10% down payment, balance over 10 years
10% down payment, balance over 7 years
8% down payment, balance over 8 years

A single-digit down payment on a unit starting at EGP 13,000,000 means an opening cheque near EGP 1,040,000 on the 8% plan, which is a low entry threshold for this price tier in the Fifth Settlement. Many compounds in the same band still ask 15% or more up front, so the structure here widens the pool of buyers who can enter without liquidating other assets first.

The three plans trade the same two variables against each other, and the choice depends on which pressure a buyer would rather carry. The 10-year plan produces the smallest monthly obligation and suits a salaried household budgeting around cash flow. The 7-year plan raises the instalment but shortens the exposure, which suits a buyer expecting to resell before the term ends. The 8% option lowers the opening cheque at the cost of a slightly heavier schedule across eight years.

Handover timeline and maintenance charges

Tameer states handover within one to two years of contracting, a notably short window by New Cairo standards. Most competing launches in the Fifth Settlement sell on a three to five year construction horizon, so a buyer here is entering a project close to completion rather than at the excavation stage. The compound does not publish a single fixed calendar delivery year, and no such year has been assigned to this listing.

A short handover window changes the arithmetic in two ways. It compresses the period during which the buyer pays instalments on an asset they cannot occupy or rent, which is the hidden cost of every long off-plan purchase. It also means the buyer locks the current phase price shortly before the units become usable stock, so the gap between the contract price and the post-handover market price closes over months instead of years.

Maintenance is charged at EGP 1,500 per square metre and should be budgeted alongside the unit price rather than treated as an afterthought. On a 150 square metre apartment that is EGP 225,000, and on the 406 square metre penthouse it reaches EGP 609,000. The fee funds the cleaning and maintenance contractors that keep the landscape and shared facilities functioning, which is the mechanism that protects resale value in a low-density compound.

Amenities and services inside the compound

The facilities package was assembled so that a household can cover leisure, retail and work needs without leaving the gates. On the recreational side the compound carries swimming pools in varied sizes and depths for adults and children, a dedicated kids area, a clubhouse, walking and cycling tracks, and gardens set aside for pets. The design also accounts for accessibility, with facilities adapted for people of determination.

Who this compound suits, and who it does not

Three attributes carry the investment case here, and each was established above rather than asserted. The first is the infill address behind the American University with 90th Street five minutes away, which sustains both owner-occupier and rental demand because the surrounding services already exist. The second is a developer with more than 27,000 delivered units since 1945, which lowers completion risk. The third is low build density across 19 acres, which protects the outlook and the open-space ratio that the pricing rests on.

The buyer profile follows from those facts. The project fits a family or investor with a budget opening near EGP 13,000,000 who wants a unit deep inside the Fifth Settlement and prefers a long instalment horizon of up to ten years over a large opening payment. It also fits the risk-averse investor who would rather pay a developer premium than test a newcomer’s delivery record, and the buyer who wants to take handover within one to two years instead of financing a long build.

It is a poor fit in two clear cases. Anyone whose requirement is a standalone villa, townhouse or twin house should look elsewhere, because the entire inventory is apartments and penthouses. Anyone whose priority is the lowest possible price per metre in New Cairo will also find better arithmetic on newer land further from the mature core, at the cost of waiting for that district to fill in. The compound sells maturity and completion speed, and both of those carry a price.

On the upside, releasing units at a stage close to handover while still pricing them at the current phase supports value growth once the compound is complete and occupied. Neighbouring benchmarks such as Mountain View iCity New Cairo and Hyde Park New Cairo give a direct read on where finished units in this catchment settle, so a buyer can test the entry price against a real comparable rather than a projection. This analysis is offered for guidance only and is not investment advice.
