Buying an apartment in Casablanca: the complete 2026 guide
Budget, neighbourhoods, financing, legal checks: everything you need to know to succeed in your property purchase in Casablanca this year.
Buying an apartment in Casablanca is one of the most defining projects of a lifetime. The city offers a diversity of neighbourhoods and prices that allows every buyer profile to find what they are looking for, provided the project is well prepared in advance.
The first step is to define your budget precisely. Beyond the purchase price, think about the additional costs: notary fees (around 5 to 6%), registration fees, agency fees and any renovation work. Financing well negotiated with several banks can make a significant difference to the total cost.
The choice of neighbourhood is decisive. Anfa, Gauthier and Racine appeal with their prestige and central location; Maârif and Bourgogne offer an excellent balance of urban life and rental yield; Bouskoura and Californie attract families seeking calm and green spaces.
Before any signature, check the legal status of the property: land title, certificate of ownership, absence of mortgage and compliance of the surfaces. Professional support protects you from unpleasant surprises and secures the whole transaction.
Finally, never overlook the viewing. Light, facing views, condition of the common areas, co-ownership charges: these are all details that make the difference between a good and an excellent investment.
