oldwell Banker Egypt has partnered with Sakr Investment Management to launch Farida, Egypt’s first digital platform for fractional real‑estate ownership. The platform lets investors buy shares in residential, commercial, administrative, and medical properties instead of full units. Farida operates under Sakr’s licensed Real‑Estate Investment Fund, with electronic subscription authorisation granted by the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) under licence 989 on 6 Nov 2025.

    Farida offers a regulated, tech‑driven system for fractional ownership, enabling secure digital transactions under FRA oversight. It is open to local and foreign investors, including expatriates, and aims to democratise access for small and mid‑level participants who cannot afford traditional purchases. By broadening participation, Farida provides an alternative investment avenue for individuals and institutions.

    Coldwell Banker Egypt will promote and manage the platform, leveraging its expertise and developer network to curate a portfolio focused on high‑demand locations, reputable developers, and competitive pricing.

    “Introducing fractional real‑estate investment within a regulated digital framework is a significant milestone,” said Karim Zain, CEO of Coldwell Banker Egypt. Ahmed Sakr, Chairperson of Sakr Investment Management, added that Farida blends fintech with established investment structures to boost transparency, accessibility, and confidence.

    Coldwell Banker’s global network spans more than 49 countries, offering marketing, advisory, asset management, and development services. Sakr Investment Management, a licensed non‑bank financial services firm, manages Real‑Estate Investment Funds under FRA supervision, with Farida as its flagship platform. Together, they aim to transform Egypt’s real‑estate landscape by opening the market to a broader investor base through regulated, tech‑enabled channels.
