Azad compound New Cairo Compound stretches directly behind the American University in Cairo, on land largely dominated by crystal lagoons and green spaces.
as part of a fully integrated project by Tameer Developments that brings together residential, leisure, and commercial life in the heart of the Fifth Settlement.
The project was designed with a European character on Egyptian soil, and its 530 units are distributed across low-density buildings that all overlook the landscape and artificial lakes.
Prices start from EGP 12,930,500 in installments, with a down payment starting from 8% and repayment periods of up to 8 years, alongside flexible payment plans that suit both living and investment.
The project targets a wide range of buyers looking for a complete unit in a prime location, whether for family living or long-term investment, through a rare mix that combines a vibrant location near the American University, expansive green spaces, and an integrated commercial district within the compound.
The word “Azad” is of Persian origin and means “free” or “unbound”, a meaning Tameer chose to reflect the project’s philosophy of openness and wide-open spaces.
The design translates this meaning through a low-density master plan interwoven with lakes and gardens in every direction, giving the units a sense of spaciousness and privacy away from the crowds, so residents genuinely live the experience of “freedom” the name carries.
The name also reflects the company’s vision of delivering a project unrestricted by traditional molds, offering residents the freedom to choose between multiple unit types, sizes, and payment plans that suit different needs and tastes.
Tameer did not approach Azad as a mere group of residential buildings, but as an integrated community that combines living, work, and leisure within a single master plan. The residential part was dedicated to low-rise buildings breathing amid nature, while a separate zone was allocated for commercial and administrative activities so that the residential area remains quiet and away from visitor traffic.
The exterior design adopts a modern European style, with simply ornamented facades and dark tones inspired by classic European architecture, giving the compound a distinctive visual identity among Fifth Settlement projects.
The company entrusted the landscape design to Eng. Mona Hussein, one of Egypt’s most prominent landscape designers, who distributed the green areas and walkways around the artificial lakes and the crystal lagoon zone to cover the largest share of the land.
The project’s 530 units are spread across around 47 buildings, all designed to overlook the green spaces or the lakes, so residents enjoy a direct natural view from inside their units without having to leave them.
The master plan also ensures that services and facilities are close to every unit, with an internal road network that separates vehicle traffic from pedestrian paths as much as possible to enhance safety and tranquility.
The units vary between apartments of different sizes, duplexes, and villas, so every client can find the unit that fits their needs, whether an individual, a small family, or a large household, in addition to units with private roof floors and semi-finished units that let clients design the interior to their own taste.
In planning Azad, Tameer also considered the socially connected nature of the Egyptian family, distributing shared spaces and community activity areas across the project to bring residents closer together and allow them to build neighborly relationships in a safe environment.
There are also dedicated children’s areas that guarantee safe play and movement. This balance between privacy inside the unit and community life in the open spaces is what distinguishes Azad’s philosophy from projects that merely provide residential units without an integrated social fabric.
The company did not overlook build quality either, relying on materials and standards that ensure long-term durability, with exterior finishes that reflect the European character the project adopts.
The delivery options between the Core & Shell system and semi-finishing give the client control over the unit’s cost and the level of its interior finishing to match their budget and personal taste.

Payment Plans and Cash Discounts in Azad
The project offers three flexible payment plans that vary by delivery date, with a cash discount of up to 30% across all phases:
Azad Compound units are being delivered throughout 2026, with a number of units ready for immediate handover in certain phases, giving the client the choice of moving in right away or making a short-term investment.
Units are delivered in Core & Shell or semi-finished condition depending on the phase, allowing the client to execute the interior design that suits their taste and needs, with the company committed to the scheduled delivery dates in line with its decades-long track record.
The variety of project phases also gives clients different options based on their priorities: those seeking immediate housing will find ready-to-move units, while long-term investors can benefit from buying under-construction units at early-phase prices, which typically rise in value as the delivery date approaches and facilities are completed.
The services ecosystem inside Azad was designed to cover residents’ daily and leisure needs without leaving the project, with several facilities that set it apart:
The Crystal Lagoon and Artificial Lakes Area
Artificial lakes and a crystal lagoon area extend through the green spaces at the center of the project, designed by Eng. Mona Hussein to give the units direct water views and provide residents with spaces for relaxation and lakeside walks in a calm natural atmosphere.
These lakes are among the project’s biggest attractions, creating a resort-like atmosphere in the heart of the Fifth Settlement while helping soften the microclimate around the units and enhancing the sense of daily wellbeing.
Urban Business Lane Mall
The project includes its own commercial and administrative district through Urban Business Lane Mall, which brings together restaurants, cafés, retail stores, a large hypermarket, and entertainment areas, meeting residents’ shopping and service needs directly inside the compound.
Green Spaces and Sports Tracks
Green areas and landscape cover the largest share of the project’s land, interwoven with dedicated tracks for walking, jogging, and cycling, alongside children’s play areas and multiple sports courts, supporting a healthy lifestyle amid nature.
A Design That Separates Cars from Pedestrians
Tameer paid special attention to planning the internal road network so that vehicle lanes are separated from pedestrian paths as much as possible, with a garage and organized parking areas located away from the residential units.
This design gives residents a safer, quieter environment and allows children and the elderly to move freely within the project without worrying about traffic, an approach that has become essential in modern residential communities that put residents’ comfort and safety first.

With this mix of leisure, commercial, and service facilities, Azad offers its residents a fully integrated lifestyle that combines comfort, activity, and entertainment within the project’s walls, so residents spend their day between green spaces, lakes, restaurants, and courts without needing to travel outside the compound for their daily needs.
Azad is not just a residential destination; it represents an investment opportunity backed by several tangible factors. The project sits in one of New Cairo’s most in-demand areas, carries the signature of a long-established developer, and offers payment plans that suit the investor as much as the resident. The following are the key factors that strengthen its investment case:
A high-demand location: the direct proximity to the American University and the Fifth Settlement’s axes raises rental demand, particularly from the university’s students and faculty, supporting rental yields.
A commercial district: the presence of Urban Business Lane Mall inside the project adds commercial investment opportunities alongside residential ones.
Flexible payment plans: a down payment starting from 8%, installments up to 8 years, and a cash discount of up to 30%, allowing entry with limited liquidity and maximizing profit upon resale.
Rising resale value: the Fifth Settlement’s integrated projects see continuous price growth, boosting the chances of a capital gain upon resale.
By combining these factors, Azad presents a balanced investment equation that brings together capital safety in a well-established area and the opportunity for stable rental and operational returns, making it an option worth studying for anyone seeking a real estate investment in the heart of New Cairo.
Tameer Developments is the developer behind Azad and one of Egypt’s most established real estate entities, with roots dating back to 1945 under a long-standing engineering and real estate entity, accumulating more than 75 years of experience in the residential and hospitality fields.
The company began its journey in construction and engineering consultancy, then gradually expanded into real estate and hotel development. A key milestone came in the late 1990s when it joined the Al Wazzan investment group, giving it a strong push to expand its activity across the new cities.
Over the decades, Tameer executed a number of major hotel projects alongside its residential communities, combining international hospitality expertise with residential development quality in a single project like Azad.
The company’s board is chaired by Mr. Saad Al Wazzan, supported by a team of leaders with long experience in development and execution.
