I was about to buy a near-ready apartment in Mansoura. I've lived in Mansoura for 2 years and like it so much. But when I looked at the quality of the finishing work and the building design and other things, I thought it's only worth half the price asked. I think the building is still there and available. Also, the residency law is another issue. You never know what may happen in the future. Laws might change for no reason.

It is not encouraging for investors.
