El Patio Jade New Capital City

El Patio Jade New Capital City in short

El Patio Jade New Capital City is a compound by La Vista Developments on 100 feddans in the 6th Settlement extension, between New Cairo and the capital. The developer offers a townhouse, an apartment and villas. The lowest-priced is the 185 m² townhouse at EGP 19,150,000, and all come with 5% down and 8 years of instalments.

The compound is built around low density: buildings are not the main feature, and most of the land is greenery, water and walkways. That makes the sums here different from capital compounds packed with apartment blocks, and we go through them with the figures below.

Who buys at El Patio Jade?

The question here is not only which type, but whether El Patio Jade suits you at all. It suits a particular kind of buyer.

A family that wants a house with a garden on an apartment budget

This is the key point of the whole project. The townhouse has 185 m², 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and costs EGP 19,150,000. That is less than the apartment on offer, which is 165 m² at EGP 19,800,000. So if you came to buy a three-bedroom apartment in this area, there is a house with a garden and its own front door for less.

A family that needs a real villa

The 225 m² villa costs EGP 30,500,000, and the 310 m² villa EGP 40,800,000 with 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. The larger one suits a family with grown children or parents living with them, with almost a bathroom per person.

Someone who works in the capital or New Cairo

The location sits between New Cairo and the New Administrative Capital. If you work in one and the schools or family are in the other, this cuts your daily driving in both directions.

Townhouse, apartment or villa in El Patio Jade?

Divide each price by its area and the picture becomes clearer than any description:

• The townhouse: about EGP 103,500 per m². The lowest-priced square metre in the project, with handover in September 2030.
• The apartment: about EGP 120,000 per m², so more expensive than the townhouse per metre and in total. It is handed over in April 2031, seven months after the townhouse.
• The 225 m² villa: about EGP 135,600 per m².
• The 310 m² villa: about EGP 131,600 per m², so the larger villa is cheaper per metre than the smaller one.

The upshot is that the apartment is the weakest choice on the numbers: more expensive than the townhouse, smaller, and handed over later. Choose it only if you really do not want a house and the upkeep of a garden, and you want an apartment in a quiet, low-density compound.

Between the two villas, the difference is 85 m² and EGP 10,300,000. If you are going to pay for the 225 m² villa, consider the 310 m² one if you can manage the instalment, because you get the extra metres at less than the small villa's average price per m².

The monthly instalment shows the gap: roughly EGP 189,500 a month for the townhouse and roughly 403,750 for the large villa over 8 years, approximately and before any increases. The plans are set out under payment plans.

What does low density in El Patio Jade mean for you?

"Low density" appears in many advertisements, so let us translate it into things you actually live with. The compound takes its name from jade, and the whole idea is calm: homes are arranged so each one looks onto greenery or an open walkway, not into a neighbour's window.

• Less traffic inside the compound: fewer cars and fewer people on the paths, which matters a great deal if your children play outside.
• More privacy: wider spaces between homes, so you hear and see less of the neighbours in your day.

There is one thing to ask about, though. In a compound with few units, the cost of services, security and landscaping is shared by fewer owners. Ask about the maintenance deposit and its percentage before you sign, so you know the real cost and not only the unit price.

Price per m² in El Patio Jade against its neighbours

These are the nearest projects with listed prices, using the price per m² of their lowest-priced unit. Two are by the same developer, and they are the most useful comparison:

• El Patio Oro, same developer, 2.9 km away: around EGP 175,000 per m², but its lowest-priced unit is only 56 m², so that is the price of a small apartment.
• El Patio Hills, same developer, 3.7 km away: around EGP 125,800 per m², with its lowest-priced unit at 190 m².
• LA VISTA CITY, 3.1 km away: around EGP 131,600 per m².
• VILLAGE DE LA CAPITALE, 1 km away: around EGP 113,000 per m².
• River District, 1.4 km away: around EGP 86,200 per m².

The most important comparison is with El Patio Hills, because it is the same developer and its lowest-priced unit is close in size to the townhouse here. The square metre in El Patio Jade is about EGP 22,000 less, so if you are choosing between two La Vista projects in this area, Jade is the cheaper way in.

Note that LA VISTA CITY has a similar name but a different developer, so do not confuse it with La Vista Developments' projects.

Who is the developer of El Patio Jade?

La Vista Developments develops it; the El Patio series is its residential line in east Cairo: El Patio Oro and El Patio Hills are close by, and El Patio Prime and El Patio 5 East are in El Shorouk.

On the sea it has resorts such as La Vista 6 in Sokhna. This is a developer with plenty of work in the same area that you can go and see, and whose residents you can ask about handover, finishing and maintenance before you sign.

Why the New Capital and the 6th Settlement?

That tells you the market here is large and developers compete, which works in your favour as a buyer because you can compare and negotiate.

El Patio Jade is close to the Middle Ring Road, the Mohamed Bin Zayed axis and the Cairo to Ain Sokhna road, and the American University in the Fifth Settlement is not far. Around it are well-known compounds such as City Gate and Hyde Park, so the area has become a residential district with its services, not an extension still being built. See it under location, or browse the other projects on the New Capital page.

For an investor, houses in a low-density compound between two working districts attract tenants who work in the capital and want to live away from the crowds.

Things to know before you book in El Patio Jade

• The developer has only 4 units on sale, one of each type, so there is not much time to think if one of them suits you.
• The townhouse and villas are handed over in September 2030 and the apartment in April 2031. Check the date for your unit, not the project's.
• The finishing level is not stated. Ask before you sign, because it changes the comparison with neighbours' prices per m².
• Even the lowest-priced unit's instalment is close to EGP 190,000 a month. Work it out against your income before a small deposit tempts you.
• Read the pros and cons and the amenities above.
