Safety Guidelines & Viewing Tips
Essential safety rules to protect tenants, buyers, students, and parents before signing any contract in Sohag.
1. Always Inspect the Property in Person During Daylight
Visit the apartment in person accompanied by a family member and verify that all photos, utilities, and meters match the listing.
2. Verify the Owner's National ID & Ownership Deed
Ask to inspect the owner's original National ID and property deed or recent utility bill before signing.
3. Never Pay Brokerage Commissions
All units on Sakan Sohag are listed directly by owners. If anyone demands a broker commission, report the listing immediately.
4. Sign a Clear, Written Legal Contract
Always sign a formal written lease or sale contract specifying rent/price, security deposit, duration, and utility terms.
Special Advice for Sohag University Students & Parents
When booking a bed in student housing, make sure to visit with a parent or colleague, review the internal house rules (curfew, guest policy, utility shares), and document key handover in the agreement.
