About Mostakbal City
The city’s vision was launched in 2014 under the name “Al Mostakbal for Urban Development” as a pioneering project aimed at redefining the concept of sustainable urban communities in eastern Cairo, before being restructured in 2022 into the Master Developer model for integrated cities under the name MIDAR for Investment and Urban Development. The current master plan was officially approved by Ministerial Decree No. 862 of 2019 issued by the Ministry of Housing, Utilities, and Urban Communities, which established its current vision as the first integrated smart green city in eastern Cairo.
The city falls under Cairo Governorate administratively and lies within the eastern New Cairo zone along the Cairo-Suez Road between km 46 and km 51. It spans over 22.4 million square meters within MIDAR’s broader land portfolio in eastern Cairo, which totals 11,000 feddans distributed across two separate cities: Mostakbal City itself and the new Mada City on 5,800 feddans as an independent project with its own distinct identity.
The urban master plan consists of three main residential phases alongside a central service corridor, with green spaces, smart road networks, and water features collectively occupying approximately half of the total area, creating a healthy and sustainable residential environment.
The city operates on a smart infrastructure that includes independent water, electricity, and telecommunications networks, supported by energy efficiency systems powered by Internet of Things (IoT) technology and solar power stations, alongside a carefully planned internal road network connecting all neighborhoods through multiple entry and exit points on the regional axes. MIDAR has secured three internationally recognized certifications: ISO 9001 for Quality Management, ISO 14001 for Environmental Management, and ISO 45001 for Occupational Health and Safety.
MIDAR Ownership and Shareholders
MIDAR is led by Engineer Ayman Elkousey as Managing Director and CEO, while its shareholder structure includes a roster of Egypt’s largest government-backed financial institutions, granting the city institutional stability and financial protection that surpasses what any private real estate company could offer:
MIDAR has established three subsidiary service companies to serve the city’s residents, creating a fully integrated operational ecosystem under unified management:
- CTRL for facility management
- WAYZ for smart transportation and mobility
- CIRCUIT for electricity distribution

Investment Advantages in Mostakbal City
Mostakbal City combines several factors that make it one of the strongest real estate investment destinations in eastern Cairo today, with demand for its units rising steadily as infrastructure work advances and major new projects approach inauguration.
- The first of these factors is the semi-governmental ownership structure comprising Banque Misr, the National Investment Bank, the National Bank of Egypt, and Arab Contractors — granting the city institutional stability and financial protection that surpasses what any private real estate company could offer.
- Second, the prime location enhances investment value by placing the city at the heart of a strategic triangle linking New Cairo and the New Administrative Capital, driving rising rental and residential demand as employees and workers relocate to the Government District, the High-Speed Rail station, and Capital International Airport.
- Third, project diversity creates a self-contained local economy within the city — spanning residential, commercial, administrative, medical, and educational sectors — eliminating the need for residents to leave for any service and boosting the appeal of units for both rental and resale. The presence of a roster of leading developers also ensures pricing competitiveness and varied payment plans, while the annual rental yield in the city’s compounds reaches approximately 8% to 9% according to recent real estate market reports.
- Fourth, the city benefits from smart infrastructure and an independent operational system for managing facilities, transportation, and electricity, alongside accreditation with the three international quality certifications (ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001). Roads and green spaces occupy half of the city’s total area, while unit prices in Mostakbal City remain below those in the Fifth Settlement and the New Administrative Capital despite the smart planning and advanced infrastructure — meaning there is clear room for value appreciation as utilities reach completion and residents begin to settle.
