The company launched earlier last year the first application and electronic platform for non-banking real estate financing solutions and services in the Egyptian market, which will result in making the package of real estate financing services provided by the company available to various customers easily and quickly.
The application will allow users to calculate the estimated cost of their real estate financing needs, and will also allow customers to upload the required documents and pay fees, in addition to browsing the list of approved projects to choose the property they are interested in without the need to submit additional documents related to the project. These services are also easily available on the company’s website, which is designed to be compatible with all operating systems on computers, tablets, and various smartphones.
