VILLAGE DE LA CAPITALE New Capital City

VILLAGE DE LA CAPITALE New Capital City: only 1.5% down with Palm Hills

VILLAGE DE LA CAPITALE New Capital City is a compound by Palm Hills Developments in the New Administrative Capital, on 290 feddans. Apartments start at EGP 7,004,000 for a 62 m² one-bedroom, townhouses at 24,356,000 and villas at 31,296,000, all with 1.5% down, 11.5 years of instalments and handover in December 2030.

So you can book a Palm Hills unit in the Capital with about 105,000 down. The real question is not whether you can get in, but which unit gives the best value and whether the monthly instalment fits your income. This page answers both.

Who is Village de la Capitale for?

A first home with the least cash

The one-bedroom needs about 105,000 down and about 50,000 a month, one of the lightest ways into a Palm Hills compound, suited to a couple or a first-time buyer.

Someone whose work has moved to the Capital

The compound is inside the New Capital, so anyone working in its ministries or companies saves the daily drive from Cairo.

A family that wants space

The three-bedroom apartment has the cheapest metre in the compound, and the townhouse gives a house with a garden for less than a villa.

A long-term investor

A small deposit and a long plan mean little cash tied up until handover at the end of 2030.

The two phases

The compound is sold in two phases with their own pages: Phase 1, with a three-bedroom apartment, townhouses and a three-bedroom villa, and Phase 2, with every type from a one-bedroom to a five-bedroom villa. Both share the plan and the handover date, and prices are very close. The clear difference is the townhouse: from 24,356,000 in Phase 1 and 26,815,000 in Phase 2, so Phase 1 is about 2.5 million cheaper for the same area.

The apartments: three bedrooms is the best metre

• One bedroom, 62 to 63 m²: from 7,004,000, about 113,000 per m².
• Two bedrooms, 94 to 102 m²: from 10,680,000, about 113,600 per m².
• Three bedrooms, 146 to 150 m²: from 14,554,000, about 99,700 per m².

The one and two-bedrooms share almost the same metre, but the three-bedroom's is about 13,000 cheaper. It costs about 3.9 million more than the two-bedroom for over 50 m² and a room more. If your family will grow, the three-bedroom saves you moving later.

Townhouse or villa?

• Townhouse, 3 bedrooms, 196 m²: from 24,356,000, about 124,300 per m².
• Villa, 3 bedrooms, 185 m²: from 31,296,000, about 169,200 per m².
• Villa, 5 bedrooms, 292 m²: 44,197,000, about 151,400 per m².

The three-bedroom villa costs about 7 million more than the townhouse and is 11 m² smaller, so the whole difference pays for standing free on all sides. If you do want a villa, the five-bedroom is cheaper per metre than the three-bedroom, giving 107 m² and two rooms more for about 12.9 million extra, roughly 120,000 per added metre. The smart choices: the townhouse for a house at the lowest price, the five-bedroom villa for the best villa value.

The sums: 1.5% down, 11.5 years

• One-bedroom: 105,060 down, then about 50,000 a month.
• Three-bedroom apartment: about 218,000 down, then about 103,900.
• Townhouse: 365,340 down, then about 173,800.
• Five-bedroom villa: 662,955 down, then about 315,500.

If the instalment is to stay within a third of household income, the one-bedroom needs about 150,000 a month and the three-bedroom about 312,000. These are approximate and before any increases; details are under payment plans.

1.5% down: what to watch

A deposit this small is a real advantage, but the money has moved to the instalment, which carries almost the whole price. Some plans like this also include yearly or handover payments. Ask for the full schedule to the last instalment, find the year you will pay the most, and make sure it fits your income.

Against the compounds around it

• Apartments: El Patio Jade, 1 km away, about 120,000 a metre; Village de la Capitale from about 99,700; River District about 86,200; New Garden City about 41,800.
• Townhouses: La Vista City about 131,600, Village de la Capitale 124,300, El Patio Jade 103,500.
• Villas: La Vista City about 147,900, Village de la Capitale from 151,400, El Patio Jade 131,600, River District 119,300.

So Village de la Capitale sits in the upper middle of the area: dearer than River District and New Garden City, cheaper than El Patio Jade for apartments. What you pay for is the Palm Hills name, the tiny deposit and the long plan.

Choosing in the New Capital

In the Capital, metres range from about 42,000 at New Garden City to over 100,000 at the major developers' compounds. Before choosing, settle three things: will you live there or invest, when do you need the keys, and how much can you pay each month. If you will live there, are in no hurry and want the smallest deposit, Village de la Capitale is one of the best fits.

Handover at the end of 2030

You will pay instalments for about four years before moving in. If you rent today, add those years of rent before comparing with a ready apartment. In exchange, you book at today's price with the least cash possible, and the instalment weighs less each year if your income rises. Ask about construction progress and visit the site before signing.

The developer

Palm Hills also has Badya in October, Palm Hills New Cairo and the Hacienda villages on the coast. Village de la Capitale is its address in the New Capital.
