I am from American, currently I am a student, but I want to go and move to Cairo and I was wanting to buy a house and own it.
My question to someone is, If I own a house in cairo, and it is mine, legally, is there a way I can obtain a duel citizenship or something to keep me from getting thrown out of the country?

Buying property doesn't give you residence or citizenship. But it is unlikely you would be thrown out of the country in any event unless you did something illegal. The Egyptian government loves residents with dollars to spend

do you know how much a 3 bedroom house would cost me in US dollars?

There is a lot of Real estate agency that could help you and you could also look this webside . Wish you luck.
Egypt is not America. They won't toss you out. You can renew your tourist visa every year for 12 months. Don't worry.
But welcome to buy property if you have the cash.
P.S. You keep referring to "a house". Have you ever been to Egypt? We don't have "houses" per se. The closest thing to "a house" is what is known as a villa here. Is that what you want? Or would a flat (you might know this as an apartment or condo) be enough? In either case, it is difficult to give you a price as realestate varies here just like it does in the states. It depends on where you are buying, what you are buying and the amenities you'll have included in your purchase.
