Cairo Business Plaza New Capital City

Cairo Business Plaza New Capital City: offices from 77 m² near the Financial District

Cairo Business Plaza is an administrative and commercial building by Better Home in the New Capital, close to the Financial District. The developer has 10 offices on offer, from 77 m² at EGP 13,564,916 up to 494 m² at 96,677,535, with about 7% down, 10 years of instalments and handover in April 2030.

So this is a project for someone buying an office, either to run a business from or to let. The questions that matter are different from a home: what a metre costs against the office buildings around it, what the instalment means for a company's cash flow, and whether the location will bring tenants. That is what this page works through.

Cairo Business Plaza location in the New Capital

Where is Cairo Business Plaza? In the New Administrative Capital, close to the Financial District. Is Cairo Business Plaza in the New Capital or New Cairo? The New Capital. Some searches call it the 5th Settlement, but the project is in the New Capital, and that matters, because tenants and prices there move with the Capital's own business districts, not New Cairo's.

It sits in a dense cluster of office and retail projects: 6ixty Three is about 100 metres away, Eleven and Paragon 2 about 300 metres, and Financial Hub about 500 metres. See the exact spot under location, or browse the other projects on the New Capital page.

The developer: Better Home

Who is the developer of Cairo Business Plaza? Better Home, with 17 projects published on Masharf, most of them under its Midtown name: Midtown Sky and Midtown Condo in the New Capital, and Midtown New Cairo. So Cairo Business Plaza is the developer's office building beside a family of residential projects, which you can look at to judge its work before you buy.

Units in Cairo Business Plaza

The project's details list offices and retail units; the developer is offering offices now, 10 of them, from 77 to 494 m².

The small office: from 77 m²

At EGP 13,564,916, about 176,200 per m². This is the entry point, for a small company, a professional practice or an investor buying to let.

The large office: up to 494 m²

At 96,677,535, about 195,700 per m². This suits a company's headquarters, or an investor who wants one large tenant instead of several small ones.

Bigger costs more per metre here

Usually a larger unit is a little cheaper per metre. Here it is the opposite: the largest office costs about 19,500 more per metre than the smallest. That may come from the floor, the view or the position in the building. So if you need a large area, ask whether two adjoining smaller offices work out cheaper than one large one.

The sums

• Deposit: EGP 961,876 on the smallest office, about 7%.
• Instalment: the rest over 10 years, about 105,000 a month.
• Income or revenue needed: if the instalment is to stay within a third of it, about 315,000 a month.

These are approximate and before any increases; the details are under payment plans. For a company, the useful comparison is with rent: if the instalment is close to what you pay in rent today, you end up owning the office instead of paying a landlord.

Against the offices around it

Using the cheapest office's price per metre in the projects nearby:

• Rock Capital: about 900 m away, about 197,300.
• Cairo Business Plaza: about 176,200.
• 6ixty Three: about 154,000.
• Financial Hub: about 154,000.
• Eleven: about 150,000.
• Obex: about 1 km, about 139,800.
• Paragon 2: about 117,600.

Cairo Business Plaza is in the upper part of its neighbourhood: dearer than most offices around it and cheaper than Rock Capital. So before you buy, ask what you get for the extra 20,000 or so per metre over Eleven or 6ixty Three: the building's services, the floor, parking, or the frontage.

What the building offers

Recorded in the project's details: CCTV, maintenance services, a fire alarm system, and elevators and escalators. For an office, these are the basics a tenant will ask about. Also ask about parking for staff and visitors, the service charge per metre, and the hours the building is open, because those decide which tenants it will attract.

Who does it suit?

A company moving to the New Capital

A company that deals with them may want an office close by, and owning on a 10-year plan can cost close to renting.

An investor buying to let

A 77 m² office is the easiest size to let. Work out the return: ask what similar offices rent for nearby, multiply by 12, subtract the service charge and some empty months, and divide by the price.

Someone who can wait until 2030

Handover is in April 2030, so no rent before then, while the instalments run from now.

Cairo Business Plaza photos

The gallery and the master plan are at the top of this page. Since the building is handed over in 2030, the photos show the design. Use the master plan to see which side your office faces and where the entrances and the parking are, because for an office, frontage and access change its rent.

Things to know before you buy

• Ask why the large offices cost more per metre than the small ones.
• Ask about the service charge, parking and the finishing you will receive, because the finishing level is not recorded with us.
• Check the licence: administrative use, and whether any units are retail.
• Make sure the handover date is in the contract.
• Read the pros and cons and the FAQs.
