Getting around : Tram, busway, urban motorway; Mohammed V airport 30 km away.
How the purchase works
- Set the total budget: price + about 7% costs, plus upkeep (garden, pool).
- Choose between a villa in a gated community (security, services) and a standalone villa.
- Check the land title, plot boundaries, occupancy permit and planning rules.
- Sign the preliminary contract, get the loan offer, then the deed at the notary and registration at the land registry.
