Housing availability and quality is an indicator of progressive development in a country. However, now in Egypt, the supply of housing exceeds the demand, which means a real state stagnancy. Even though, the housing units’ prices still not affordable by the majority. Further more the units’ prices escalate in some classes. It has been suggested that the social aspects is a main factor that such demand.
Thus this study suggests that the current investment policy (the supply) may not represent the people’s social requirements. So, studying the percentage of each housing class would redirect the investment towards better occupancy rate in the new towns.
The paper adopted the analytical comparative methodology for the existing occupancy rate in the new towns. Hence, the percentage of houses classes could be reconsidered according to existed and expected occupants’ needs.
