Should I buy or rent a home in Alexandria?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Alexandria, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Alexandria can be a great investment. The city is known for its vibrant culture, beautiful beaches, and rich history. It is also a great place to live, with plenty of amenities and a low cost of living. However, it is important to consider the pros and cons of both buying and renting before making a decision. Buying a home in Alexandria can provide stability and the potential for long-term appreciation, but it also requires a large upfront investment. Renting a home in Alexandria can be more affordable in the short-term, but it does not provide the same potential for long-term appreciation. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Alexandria should be based on your individual needs and financial situation," remarked another expat in Alexandria, Egypt.
