Oasis Marina Resort reminds me of the day I got behind the wheel of a friends' Porsche 911. A few minutes previously, on the look out for a replacement car I had been test driving a very worthy VW Golf.The difference of the Porsche 911 from the Golf was huge. A different league. Everything feels just so right in the 911. I felt more alive. I could feel the difference. And why my friend feels its worth the extra money fro the best.
Your Porsche costs three times the price. Not worth it? Yes but it is for some folks. And the same holds true for prime, prestigious, and desireable property.
So lets back down to earth and think property investment and not luxury toys.
But when I saw the Oasis Marina building site it was just like that special Porsche feeling.
But there is a difference
This is a Porsche location at VW prices. Clear uninterrupted views of the crystal clear Red Sea. The large protected beach in front your to wander over.
But, for me, this is not enough. Because its no use investing in property right now, unless its at a great low price and its really safe.
Developers can forget about attempting to come to market without full project funding and full plans. No Bank lending? Crunchie Credit times have stopped quite a lot of that.
And the irony is that Egypt has cash rich developers because so little debt was taken out.
We are seeing property here being sold at £12,800 ($19,000 14,000 Euros) because in the almost unique position for very little being paid for the land and exceptionally low labour costs. A good daily wage here is £5 for a site labourer. Now that raw material prices have come back down, then value property is still available. It just will not get cheaper because there's no need. Developments in Hurghada, like Oasis Marina are selling. People who visit the Oasis site can see the scarcity of this premium location, the infrastructure and the safety of in built resilience to down turns elsewhere.
As property investors are waiting to see where property prices settle, in markets driven by speculation, and debt. So investor demand looks for sound alternatives. Egypt has a place in the property investor's portfolio.
For those who just want some warmth and sunshine at VW prices, then I think this is one not to miss.
