Although the fiftieth Khan Mahmud, an employee of one of the government institutions in Egypt, left the apartment in which she married more than 15 years ago on the fifth floor in one of the real estate, which was built in the sixties of the last century; She still supports the apartment, which her late husband rented in the late eighties in the amount of 60 pounds (the dollar is 49.2 pounds in banks).
The khan, who lives at the Beni Humanitarian Institute (Upper Egypt), told Al -Sharka al -Vausat that the apartment in which she currently lives is a new rent, and she pays 4 thousand pounds a month, which is equivalent to about half of her salary, emphasizing that she has become a new apartment, which will become new, which it will become new that it will become new that it will become new that it has become new that it will become new that it has become new. The new apartment, which will become new, that she will become a new apartment, which became new, that she will become new, that she will become a new apartment, which became new, that she became Noah. It is balanced by stable, even if the distance between them is not large.
According to the amendments to the Law of the Old rent, which was approved by the Egyptian parliament (parliament) last week, there will be a “mandatory evacuation” if the rented apartment remains closed for more than a year without justification, or if the tenant has an alternative unit, which acts for the same purpose.
In contrast to the deadline at the end of the contract period granted to the residents of the rented units, in accordance with the law, whether it is the housing indicated for 7 years, or commercial and administrative, indicated for 5 years, closed apartments will immediately restore them.
Hala Mohamed (31 years old), who lives in a popular area in the suburb of Dokka (Giza), accompanied by his colleagues from Mansura to work in one of the largest companies in Cairo to reduce the rent, since new apartments in the region are available to observe many closed apartments, including units in which they live.
Hala told Al -Sharq Al -Awsat that the rent amounted to no more than 3 thousand pounds until 2021, but (today) reached 10 thousand pounds with a new request to increase at the beginning of the next year from the owner of the apartment, which forces it to count on the application of the law, so there will be more apartments, and thus renting from December or, at least, which is significantly significantly.
According to the census published by the Central Agency for Mobilization and Statistics in 2017, the government was entitled to it in the draft law, the number of units rented in accordance with the law is 3.012 million units by about 7 percent of housing units in Egypt, and most of them are concentrated in the Greater Cairo in its three governors and Alexandria.
The law adopted the law last week, in the “deputies” from the parliamentary majority, against the backdrop of deviations from the opposition and leaving the session, as well as invitations from some deputies to President Abdel Fatt -El, do not ratify the law and do not enter into force in protest against his articles.
Member of the Housing Committee of the Council “Representatives”, Taher Salim, the custody of al -Shark al -Avat, that the approval of the law came to achieve a balance between the owner and tenant, and it is natural that the difference in opinions will be preserved, and the way of solving many problems, indicating that the apartments will have differences in adapting, and they will be in adaptation. The number of units that contribute to a partial reduction in rental prices. ”
He added that the market is subject to demand and supply policy, and the provision will be provided to satisfy demand, which forces prices to decline or prove in accordance with the character of each region, and units that will be available, indicating that the ultimate goal of the law is to achieve public interest.
Nevertheless, the head of the City Planning association, professor of engineer Mahmud Gaita, questioned the ability of the law to provide a large number of housing units for several reasons. The center of which consists in the fact that several of these units may no longer fit (today) for housing, whether for engineering reasons or nature of buildings that need to be demolished and rebuilt, in addition to the crisis in which the government itself makes its promise in order to ensure an “alternative housing”, which means that it must build twenty years twenty years.
The government promised to provide the Alternative Housing divisions for the Old rents units in order to be geographically distributed in order to satisfy the needs of citizens, at the same time diversifying them received to be between the supported rent or ownership of a reduced percentage in accordance with the income of the family and the social situation.
The gait said al -Shark al -Ausat that “the lack of detailed data on real estate and its conditions accurately and the nature of its inhabitants is a real obstacle to talking about possible positive results from the law,” noting that “contractual relations between the owner and tenant need more control in order to avoid social damage to Egyptian families.”
