Salaam!

I am Karim El-Masry, an Egyptian journalist who found refuge in the vibrant streets of NYC. My writings, which once echoed freedom and hope in Cairo's cafes, now whisper quietly from the confines of a cramped apartment, yearning for an expanse where they can roar freely again.


The Beginnings:

From the Nile's gentle whispers to Tahrir Square's echoing cries, I've documented Egypt's heartbeats. But in NYC, amidst skyscrapers and bustling avenues, I seek a haven where my words can once again flow unfettered, reaching out to those who believe in them.


The Vision:

I envision a space where pens dance freely, and words aren’t imprisoned. A sanctuary where the spirit of the Nile intertwines with the Hudson, and narratives of freedom are penned down without boundaries.


The Quest Begins:

Discovering Dyur was like unearthing a hidden parchment. An opportunity to not only carve a niche in this city but also to unite stories of freedom from every corner of the globe.


Your Role:

Your contribution isn't just a number; it’s a commitment to free speech, storytelling, and the eternal quest for truth in journalism.


Why It Matters:

Supporting this cause ensures that the tales of freedom, whether from Cairo's streets or NYC's alleys, aren't silenced but amplified. It's the very essence of safeguarding humanity's shared stories.


Join My Quest:

Together, we can craft a world where every voice matters, where tales of resilience and freedom are not just told, but celebrated.


Conclusion:

Your invaluable support pushes forward a legacy where each word resonates with hope, courage, and unyielding spirit. Let's unite in championing narratives of freedom.


Sincerely,

Karim El-Masry

Why New York?
Here are the latest trends in the NYC real estate market as well as the statewide market. A prolonged scarcity of properties on the market, along with high prices and high mortgage rates, continues to impede the New York housing market. According to the housing report released by the New York State Association of REALTORS®, the number of properties for sale declined for the 37th straight month in year-over-year comparisons, while mortgage rates remain more than double what they were at this time last year.

The number of available properties for sale fell by 12%, from 40,321 in November 2021 to 36,490 this month. In year-over-year comparisons, the months' supply of dwellings stayed unchanged at 3.2 months. Months' supply is the number of months it would take to sell the present inventory of homes at the current sales rate. A balanced market has a supply of six to six and a half months.
