About

Stayza exists because of one sentence

People don't fail in Egypt because it's bad. They fail because they don't understand it.

Egypt is not a difficult place to live. It is a difficult place to arrive in blind.

People come here for university, for treatment, for work, for family, or to invest — and they make decisions in their first few weeks that shape the next few years. They pick the wrong area. They sign something they could not read. They pay for a property nobody verified.

Stayza was built to sit in that gap. We are a real-estate company, and we do rent, sell and manage property. But the part that matters is the part before that: helping you understand where you are and what you are actually choosing between.

Who we are
A real-estate company in Egypt, built for people arriving from outside it.
Who we serve
Students, families, professionals, investors and property owners — mostly from Nigeria, Ghana, Chad, South Africa, across Africa and the Middle East.
What we solve
The information gap. People make large decisions here with far too little to go on.
How we work
We explain the area before the property, we say what we don't know, and we write down the downsides.

Founder

Stayza was founded by Fatima M Jidda, who leads the company as CEO.

We keep this page short on purpose. What we have done for people matters more than what we say about ourselves — and we would rather add to this page only when there is something true to add.

What we will not do

  • Publish a property we have not checked
  • Quote a figure we cannot source and date
  • Promise you a return on an investment
  • Present research as if it were a partnership
  • Rush you into a decision
