Morocco’s property market in 2026: trends and benchmarks to decide

Should you buy in 2026? Will prices rise with the 2030 World Cup? The Moroccan property market raises many questions, and just as many claims that are hard to check. This guide looks at the forces that really shape the market, and at the official indicators that let you form your own view without relying on rumours.

The forces shaping the market

Direct housing aid. The Daam Sakane programme, launched for 2024-2028, pays MAD 100,000 for a new home priced up to MAD 300,000 including VAT and MAD 70,000 between MAD 300,000 and 700,000, for a first purchase of a main home. It supports demand for new builds, especially in the economic and mid-range segments. See the Daam Sakane conditions.

The cost of credit. Bank Al-Maghrib eased its monetary policy in 2024 and 2025. The policy rate influences the terms banks offer, which are still set case by case. See what drives your rate and your borrowing capacity.

Major projects. Preparations for the 2030 World Cup, co-hosted with Spain and Portugal, and the extension of the high-speed rail line to the south are speeding up infrastructure projects in several cities. Their effect on prices plays out district by district, and is often anticipated. See investing ahead of the 2030 World Cup and high-speed rail and property.

Demand from Moroccans abroad. Moroccans living abroad remain a major driver, especially in summer, in their home towns and along the coast.

Official indicators to watch

• The residential property price index, published by Bank Al-Maghrib and ANCFCC, by city and property type: see how to read it.
• The number of transactions, which shows real market activity.
• Housing loans data published by Bank Al-Maghrib.
• The tax administration’s price reference, useful to place a declared price.

What it means for you

For a main home, the best time is still when your project is ready: budget, financing, district. For an investment, think in net yield and resale liquidity rather than promised capital gains. In every case, compare recent sales in your district: they say more than any national trend.

Buying in 2026: the checklist

• Total budget calculated, purchase costs included
• Bank agreement in principle obtained
• Eligibility for the Daam Sakane aid checked for a first new home
• Price compared with recent sales in the district
• Land title and permits of the property checked
