Real Estate Transactions

Real estate transactions in Morocco — whether buying, selling, or transferring a riad, villa, or apartment in Marrakech, Agadir, or Taghazout — follow a structured legal process that protects both parties. Every sale must be formalised before a notary (notaire or adoul) and registered with the national land registry, managed by the ANCFCC (Agence Nationale de la Conservation Foncière, du Cadastre et de la Cartographie). Registration and transfer taxes are administered by the DGI (Direction Générale des Impôts), while foreign buyers and sellers must observe the foreign-exchange rules set by the Office des Changes when moving funds in or out of the country.Armonia Solutions brings 25+ years of expertise and a track record of 360+ clients to every transaction. Our teams in Marrakech, Agadir, and Taghazout guide owners and investors through due diligence, title verification, notarial signing, and the repatriation of sale proceeds — ensuring each step complies with Moroccan law. For non-resident investors in particular, we help anticipate the documentation banks and authorities require, reducing delays and risk.Explore our guides below for a clear, practical view of how property transactions work in Morocco.
