shumza Member Posts: 360 Registered: Apr 2002	posted 29 April 2004 06:26 AM Rehab is one of the new areas in Cairo. Very beautiful, clean and calm. It's a little far out so you definitely need a car. Buses run about every half hour or so until 12am. Nice apartments and villas. I am not a professional photographer as you can tell so please excuse the poor quality.

kimo_the_maniac Member Posts: 850 Registered: Jan 2003	posted 29 April 2004 12:02 PM Shumza if you live there could you please tell me how much time it takes to get there from say Heliopolis, Mohandessin, and Maadi? IP: Logged
karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 29 April 2004 12:17 PM Hi, It takes about 25M if you are in Heliopolis. You can check their web site: www.alrehabcity.com IP: Logged
shumza Member Posts: 360 Registered: Apr 2002	posted 29 April 2004 01:09 PM Hi Kimo, I don't live there...we're thinking about it... but it takes about 10-15 mins from Medinet Nasr. IP: Logged
karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 29 April 2004 01:28 PM Hi Shumza, I have a flat there, and I will be moving there in Aug. The place is nice and very clean, and it would be smart if you buy now, as the prices are going up. It's 15m from Naser City, 25M from Heliopolis, Maadi IP: Logged
Dalia Member Posts: 794 Registered: Aug 2002	posted 30 April 2004 02:49 AM I'm sure it's nice if you have children ... but I'd prefer downtown anytime. [This message has been edited by Dalia (edited 30 April 2004).] IP: Logged
Debbie Member Posts: 3168 Registered: Mar 2001	posted 30 April 2004 04:14 AM My question is about he cleanliness of it. Did you happen to take pictures right after the road crew came through and cleaned up? Or Are people educated enough out there to actually CARE about NOT throwing their garbage in the streets? Or Are there heavy penalties imposed on those that do throw garbage in the street or garden? Because in all your pictures, there was VERY little garbage on the street, gutter, or garden, but there also were NO public provided garbage cans either, that I could see. What gives out there? Wish the general public of Cairo could be taught the same thing. IP: Logged
Julie Junior Member Posts: 4 Registered: Apr 2004	posted 30 April 2004 10:58 AM woww...its so bueatiful there....wish one day i would living there.... can somebody say how much it does cost for one month...or too buy it??? its maybe a rude question but im so curious...!! does anyone have more pictures of cairo.streets?? IP: Logged
shumza Member Posts: 360 Registered: Apr 2002	posted 30 April 2004 11:07 AM We arrived there around 2:30-3:00pm. I didn't see any cleaning crews. I was told that garbage is picked up in the morning and cleaning crews roam around throughout the day. There are no bauwabs out there so the cleaning crews are responsible maintaining the grounds and the buildings. There were small trash bins at every bus stop. I did see security guards walking around so maybe they make sure the residents don't litter. I don't know if there are any penalties for littering. The people there seem to care about their surroundings and maintaining a clean environment. There are lots of Egyptians and loads of foreigners are moving there. IP: Logged
karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 30 April 2004 06:22 PM Hi Debbie, It is clean because they clean it all the time, and people don't throw garbage out. They water the gardens everyday, and they clean the building once a week. Go and see it, it's like the photos. IP: Logged
Monica Member Posts: 2385 Registered: Aug 2003	posted 30 April 2004 06:32 PM Nice pictures there ! BUT... Looks a bit'wonderlandy' to me! Personally, I prefer a city with Character...and History...this could almost be mistaken for Florida...and I find that less intriguing, in terms of architecture! Give me downtown Cairo, city Victorious... anytime, even with all the changes! But for being clean...looks like a lot of money was invested for that particular aspect!!! quote: Originally posted by shumza: We arrived there around 2:30-3:00pm. I didn't see any cleaning crews.

karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 02 May 2004 04:52 PM Hi Dubai Doc, They don't have DSl now but they will have very soon, as there is a company that will provide DSL soon to Rehab, and it is trying to collect as much customers to lower the monthly cost, if you are intrested I can give you their phone #. Rehab= Clean Air, Clean Place, and a lot more IP: Logged
DubaiDoctor Member Posts: 77 Registered: Apr 2004	posted 05 May 2004 04:00 AM I don't have a phone number yet in Egypt. I am coming in few weeks to buy an apartemnt. Any idea how much DSL prices will be? How does Al-Rehab compare to October 6th City? I visited Egypt 6 months ago and fill in love with every thing and decided to buy an apartmetn. I have never been to 6 th of October or Rehab. I'll come to see for my self but few people highly recommeded Rehab. quote: Originally posted by karim: Hi Dubai Doc, They don't have DSl now but they will have very soon, as there is a company that will provide DSL soon to Rehab, and it is trying to collect as much customers to lower the monthly cost, if you are intrested I can give you their phone #.

karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 05 May 2004 11:10 AM Hi, They have lowered the DSL price, so it's about 150LE a month, but you can lower the price if you share the line with someone else. Check www.tedata.net for services. As for 6 October they have nice flats there, but for me I think Rehab is better and not that far. IP: Logged
Shafeqah Junior Member Posts: 1 Registered: Feb 2005	posted 01 February 2005 09:21 PM Hi, Can anyone post photos of the inside of an apartment at al rehab. I am thinking of moving there and since the outside looks so great i would love to see the inside of one of the flats. Thanks IP: Logged

germansara Member Posts: 746 Registered: Nov 2004	posted 02 February 2005 03:53 AM Salamalekum, dears, there is also a german school in Rehab, right? Is it directly inside, or in the desert? Does anybody have the site of this german school, because I would like to apply for work there. I read long ago, that they give a flat to live free and 4000 LE....? Anybodu knows?

germansara Member Posts: 746 Registered: Nov 2004	posted 02 February 2005 03:55 AM Ohhh, guys, forget it again, I cannot live there, because I couldn't afford to send three kids to school there, someone told me, it will be about 1000,- per month and child... Even with 4000,- Sallary it would be impossible... Sara IP: Logged
saeeda Member Posts: 191 Registered: Oct 2004	posted 02 February 2005 05:44 AM I'm wondering what is it makes you like this place so much??? Is it the green, the cleaniness, the pink houses??? I dunno but for me I wouldn't like to live there at all... this place could be anywhere in the world (just a bit more nice because of palm trees and blue sky), everything looks like plastic, no history, no culture, no life - I don't see any people in the street!!! Where have they gone? Or they didn't move in yet?? Maybe they're all sitting inside, like we do in Germany?? I personally prefer to live in any place in the center, even if it's bad air, not so clean and crowded like hell, but at least you can feel the life!!! IP: Logged
Mai Member Posts: 186 Registered: Dec 2004	posted 02 February 2005 06:29 AM ok u win saeeda..u said what's actually in my heart i move there with my family ..not personal choice and i'm talking always about ..where is the people issue i can't deny it's nice and clean..... but u know there is a god point there..that the children who born and raised there !!organized a very nice groups..they play together...between the buildings..mmmi think this generation won't miss heliopolice any more!!!i think this a good step for them or i hope so...

We like the place very much. Specially now, cause we are having dog. How to walk with dog in nasr city,no way. Both of,u and dog get crazy there. My husband is from cairo,but he like that is too busy,noisy..and i get crazy there...really,i am so scared there on the street,with this awfull traffic.. Now i can come to cairo, without being scared and nervos, cause i can stay this nice place,rehab.. Only one minus is there, no good fast food...in my vacation i dont like to cook, we like order food to home...but last time i get so bad pizza and sandwitch... IP: Logged
malak Member Posts: 48 Registered: Feb 2004	posted 02 February 2005 09:57 AM The reason we have a home there is because the kids have somewhere to play thats clean and no worrys of collecting any rubbish. You leave a deposit with the Rehab company of around 10,000 and the interest from this is to pay for the upkeep and maintenance of the area, including the rubbish issue. IP: Logged
Samia Member Posts: 1012 Registered: Jul 2004	posted 02 February 2005 10:03 AM Looks like a giant English Council estate to me!!!! IP: Logged
EgyptianSalsa Junior Member Posts: 10 Registered: Jan 2005	posted 02 February 2005 01:16 PM I heard that there are infrastructure problems there e.g. power outages, unreliable water supply, ... I believe this area had no water for three days last week! IP: Logged
newcomer Member Posts: 718 Registered: Jun 2002	posted 02 February 2005 03:32 PM It was not only Rehab, but the whole of Nasr City, as well as Mokottam, and Maadi I heard that had no water since Friday morning, and some of us still haven't got a proper suppply yet! I heard that a big pipe had burst in the desert near Katameya...insha Allah we'll have a regular supply soon! IP: Logged
malak Member Posts: 48 Registered: Feb 2004	posted 03 February 2005 05:43 AM Yes, but a lovely one, with nice people, sunshine and cleans streets! IP: Logged

Shopping center there is small, but it is not problem to me, i dont like shopping anyway so much.. anyway, it is nice to have this kind of choice for living...i hate if everybody must live the same way...not have any choice..and all we have our opinion,what we like and so...but please dont say things,if u are not sure..or see it with ur own eyes.

Danielab Junior Member Posts: 27 Registered: Oct 2004	posted 03 February 2005 10:02 AM HI Karim , Please might you to say how much costs a flat here, an average? and if there are available flats to rent with or without furniture? I like it, because i look is clean no pollution, quite place, etc , etccc . I must take a very important decision that's why I need this information. Waiting for your answer. My regards Karim and all ladies and gentlemen of this forum. IP: Logged
karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 03 February 2005 03:35 PM Hi, I have heard that they rasied the price from 1800-2200pounds for sqm. If you are looking for a flat to rent, you can check at the Elwaseet newspaper there are many that want to rent or sell at the old prices. I have bought mine this way. People should go and look at it first before saying I don't like that or that. I love it a lot and it's very nice. It's safe place for your kids, you will not be worried that your kid riding their bicycle from crazy drivers, and your wife walking home alone at night, as there is a Rehab police petrol car driving around day and night. There is about 4 or more schools, and they are not that expensive, one of them they ask for 5000 a year. Btw newcomer there was no shortage of water at all, as Rehab takes it's water from diffrent line than Naser City . Anyone that wants DSL it's only 150/month and Tedata has very nice offer pay 1 month get other free, so I ordered 3 month and got 3 free and 512kb, by that time I am sure that DSL will get cheaper.

newcomer Member Posts: 718 Registered: Jun 2002	posted 04 February 2005 03:33 AM Assalamu alaykum karim! I heard from friends in Rehab that you hadn't had problems with your water, lucky you! It was in fact EgyptianSalsa that mentioned that you had. Alhamdu lillah, our water now seems to be back to normal! IP: Logged
karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 04 February 2005 03:53 AM It's good the water is back. I have read that they will build a new water line from El Obour City in 2 month that will feed Naser City. IP: Logged

Salam Sara Didn't find anything for a German School in Rehab but there is one in Heliopolis and they are looking for child care providers (kindergarden). Check out www.kairofamiliennetz.de Also if anyone is interested there is a nanny job available posted by an Italian woman located in Sharm-El-Sheikh. The advertising is posted on the same website in English language. IP: Logged

miami_vice Junior Member Posts: 1 Registered: Feb 2005	posted 16 February 2005 09:39 PM I live in America and I have been passing one month at a friend�s "villa" in Al Rehab. To tell you the truth I felt like living in an horrible and awfull copy of the cheapest places of Miami...at least there,there is a beach. Who in the world can design a house with 5 bathrooms and only 3 bedrooms...a enormous terrace and no swimming pool????? I think this place only for egyptians people who wanted to be seen as the high society. Don�t be foolish...the rich society don�t live at those disneyworldlike plastic places. IP: Logged
karim Member Posts: 205 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 17 February 2005 08:34 AM Hi Miami, You don't compare Miami houses with the ones in Rehab, and yes the finishing, and the design isn't that nice but not all of them are like that. Rehab wasn't build for rich people, they used to sell the sqm for 900pounds and now it's 1800-2200pounds, so if you are looking for something special then go check Mirage City or Katamiya Heights. Btw at least Rehab is build by cement not like US houses which are made from lightwood, and if someone flushes the toilet you can hear it from the other house ` IP: Logged
