Cairo, November 15, 2026: Yamlock platform announced launching a new feature for valuing real estate units, in a move aiming to enhance transparency and providing more accurate tools for buying and selling decisions in the Egyptian real estate market, this feature allows sellers and buyers to determine the fair market value of units and estimate expected selling prices, providing a reference point to help both parties determine the appropriate price before entering into sales or purchase negotiations.
The new feature addresses one of the most prominent challenges facing real estate market participants, which is represented in the difficulty of determining the actual value of a unit due to price variations and the fact that advertised prices do not necessarily match the final prices of actual transactions, so having a price index based on market data and unit specifications becomes an important element in real estate decision-making.
Eng. Mohamed Darwish, CEO of Yamlock, said that launching the unit valuation feature is part of the platform's strategy to provide real estate services, that go beyond simply making units available for buying and selling, aiming to provide tools that help clients understand the true value of their real estate assets and make decisions due to clearer basics.
He emphasized that the platform currently includes more than 6,000 diverse real estate units, including residential, administrative, medical, and commercial units, in addition to lands, reflecting the variety of real estate offerings the platform aims to provide to clients.
He added that the new feature allows unit owners to enter their property details, attach photos, and specify its location to receive an evaluation that includes indicators of the fair market price, the unit's current value, and the expected selling price, which helps them determine an appropriate price when listing the property for sale and gives buyers a clearer picture to the extent that the asking price matches the property's actual value.
He pointed that what distinguishes the service is that it is not limited to unit owners wishing to list their properties for sale through the platform, but it is available for any client to benefit from the new feature and determine the market value of their unit without needing to register it or publish an advertisement on Yamlock, which expands the service's reach and makes it an accessible tool for various market participants.
He clarified that determining a property's value is not solely based on area and location, but is influenced by a range of factors, including the finishing condition, unit specifications, location, and the level of demand for similar properties, which showed that relying on an advertised price for another unit without considering the differences between properties can lead to inaccurate valuations.
He noted that Yamlock aims, through this initiative, to enhance the efficiency of real estate transactions by filling the information gap between buyers and sellers and providing a price reference that facilitates more realistic negotiations, in turn, strengthens the chances of closing deals on a clear basis that balances the interests of both parties.
