It is has a fairly large population although most of these live in and around the Nile river which is the only fertile region of the country. Egypt as a country needs no introduction, and in recent years, the purchase of holiday or second homes has been on the increase albeit in a somewhat low key way. The population of this historic country is increasing at quite a rapid pace as is the need for new property. For the holiday or second home owner, Egypt offers a large number of attractive features, for one thing entry level property is a lot lower than other countries and certainly for Europeans, it is a lot closer in flying time, than some of its rivals. Traditionally , people have visited this country, with a view to seeing its many historical treasures, the Pyramids, in particular but most have left, not realising the investment opportunities that exist in a country that is a tourist hot spot and has a growing population.
