Terms and Conditions
Last updated: 16 September 2026
These documents are published in Arabic and English. If the two versions differ, the Arabic text prevails.
These terms apply when you use the Meras website and your Meras account. By browsing the website, registering, sending an enquiry or reserving a property, you accept them. Please read them together with our Privacy Policy and our Refund Policy.
1. Who we are and what we do
1.1The website is operated by Meras Real Estate Platform Group for Real Estate Investment and Constructions ("Meras", "we", "us"), registered at the Cairo Investment Office under commercial register No. 145347, at 30 Mohamed Saeed El Halwany, El Orouba, Cairo, Egypt. You can contact us at [email protected].
1.2Meras is a real estate broker, not a seller. We do not own, build, sell or deliver any property. Every new property shown on the website belongs to a developer, and every resale property belongs to its owner. When you buy, your purchase contract is between you and the developer or the seller. Meras is not a party to it.
1.3When you buy a new property from a developer, the developer pays Meras a commission. You pay Meras nothing for that purchase.
1.4When you buy a resale property, you pay Meras a service fee and the seller also pays Meras a commission. Both amounts are written in the agreements you and the seller sign, so each side knows that Meras is paid by the other.
1.5For mortgage finance, Meras introduces you to banks. Any loan is between you and the bank, under the bank's own terms and approval, and Meras does not lend money or arrange the finance itself. Where we help with legal paperwork or property management, we work alongside licensed lawyers or property managers under their own terms. Nothing we say is legal or financial advice.
2. Your account
2.1To register or to reserve a property you must be at least 21 years old and legally able to enter into contracts. If you register on behalf of a company, you confirm that you are authorised to act for it, and you will provide its commercial register and tax card if we ask.
2.2You must give accurate information, keep your login details confidential, and you are responsible for what is done through your account. Tell us straight away if you think someone else has used it.
2.3We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or shows signs of fraud. Where we can, we will tell you first and explain why.
2.4You can close your account at any time by writing to [email protected]. Closing it does not cancel a deal already in progress, and we keep the records the law requires, as explained in our Privacy Policy.
3. Listings, prices and availability
3.1Listings are published from information supplied by developers and sellers. A listing is an invitation to enquire, not an offer that you can accept.
3.2Prices, payment plans, areas, delivery dates and availability can change without notice. Always confirm them with the developer or seller before you commit. When you ask to reserve a unit, we check availability with the developer first. If a price shown on the website turns out to be wrong, you may cancel your request without any charge.
3.3Photos, floor plans and interactive plans are for illustration. If they differ from the developer's or seller's contract documents, the contract documents apply.
3.4Special offers and discounted prices are set by the developer. They apply only to the units and the period shown, and may end or change before you reserve. The price that applies to you is the one in the developer's reservation form.
4. Reserving a new property from a developer
4.1When you press Buy Now, we ask the developer to confirm that the unit is still available. While we wait, the unit is held for you and no other buyer can reserve it. If the developer says it is not available, or does not answer in time, the request closes and nothing is owed.
4.2Once availability is confirmed, you have a set time to pay and upload proof of payment. The time left is shown on your deal. If it runs out before a receipt is uploaded, the deal closes and the unit can be offered to another buyer.
4.3You pay the developer directly. Meras does not collect, hold or receive any part of the price, the reservation amount or the instalments. Never pay a Meras employee or into a personal account. Meras will never ask you to.
4.4Uploading a receipt stores it on your deal. It does not mean that Meras has checked the payment or that the developer has accepted your reservation. Your reservation is complete only when the developer approves it and issues its reservation form.
4.5The developer's reservation form and contract set the amount you pay, what it gives you and whether it can be refunded. You sign those documents with the developer, not with Meras.
5. Buying or selling a resale property
5.1To reserve a resale property you sign a Reservation, Deposit and Service Fee Agreement with the seller and Meras. The reservation deposit is paid by bank transfer to the Meras client account named in that agreement. Our Refund Policy explains when the deposit is released, refunded or forfeited.
5.2To list a property for resale, the owner signs a non-exclusive listing agreement with Meras and may also sell through other brokers. Every listing is reviewed by our team before it is published, and we may decline or remove a listing.
5.3The seller is responsible for the accuracy of the listing, for disclosing whether the title is registered or held under a preliminary contract with the developer, and for obtaining any developer consent and paying any transfer fee the developer charges.
5.4Meras does not give legal, tax, valuation or investment advice. Before signing, each party should take its own advice, particularly about the title and the registration of the sale. We verify the identity of both parties and may stop a transaction that raises money-laundering concerns.
5.5When you list a property, you allow Meras to publish, edit, translate and share the photos, descriptions and plans you upload, on our website and in our marketing, while the listing is active, and you confirm you have the right to give this permission. Identity and contract documents are used only to check the listing and are never published.
6. Foreign buyers
6.1If you are not an Egyptian national, owning property in Egypt is subject to legal restrictions, including those in Law No. 230 of 1996 on the ownership of built property and land by non-Egyptians. These cover how many properties you may own, where you may buy and how long you must hold a property before reselling it.
6.2It is your responsibility to check that you are allowed to buy. Meras does not advise on this, and we recommend that you take independent legal advice before you reserve.
7. Using the website
7.1The website, its design, software and content, including listing descriptions, photos and plans, belong to Meras or to the people who licensed them to us.
7.2You may not copy, scrape, extract or resell the website's content, use it to build a competing database, or access the website by automated means. Doing so may also be an offence under the Anti-Cyber and Information Technology Crimes Law No. 175 of 2018.
7.3You may not submit false enquiries, listings or documents, pretend to be someone else, or interfere with the website's security or operation.
7.4When you send an enquiry, you agree that a Meras sales representative may contact you about it by the method you chose: phone call, WhatsApp, email or Zoom. We send marketing messages only with your consent, as explained in our Privacy Policy.
7.5Some features rely on other companies' services, such as Google Maps, WhatsApp and Zoom. Their own terms and privacy policies apply when you use them, and we are not responsible for those services or for other websites we link to.
7.6If anyone asks you to pay money on behalf of Meras outside the process described in these terms, or you see a listing you believe is false, report it to [email protected].
8. Our responsibility
8.1Meras operates the website with reasonable care. We are not responsible for what developers and sellers do under their own contracts with you, including late delivery, defects, changes to a project or failure to register title.
8.2We work to keep the website available and its information up to date, but we cannot guarantee that it will always be available or free of errors.
8.3Nothing in these terms removes any right you have under the Consumer Protection Law No. 181 of 2018 or any other mandatory Egyptian law.
8.4If you break these terms, for example by uploading content you have no right to use or publishing a false listing, you are responsible for the loss this causes Meras, to the extent the law allows.
9. Complaints
9.1You can send a complaint from your account or by email to [email protected]. We will reply within 7 days.
10. Changes, language and law
10.1We may change these terms. We will publish the new version on this page with its date, and email registered users about any significant change before it takes effect. If you keep using the website after that date, the new terms apply.
10.2These terms are published in Arabic and English. If the two differ, the Arabic text prevails.
10.3These terms are governed by Egyptian law, and the competent Egyptian courts have jurisdiction.
11. General
11.1Neither we nor you are responsible for a delay or failure caused by events outside reasonable control, such as a natural disaster, war, government action, or a widespread internet or power outage.
11.2If a court finds any part of these terms invalid, the rest continues to apply.
11.3You may not transfer your account or your rights under these terms to someone else. Meras may transfer them to a company that takes over its business, and your rights will not be reduced as a result.
11.4If we do not enforce a term straight away, we can still enforce it later.
11.5These terms, our Privacy Policy and our Refund Policy are the whole agreement for your use of the website. Where you sign a separate agreement for a specific property, that agreement applies to that transaction if it differs from these terms.
11.6We send notices about your account or your deals to the email address on your account. You can send notices to us at [email protected].
