How is the property market in Morocco? |
 |
Property in Morocco is approximately one third of the price
for comparable builds in Spain. The major cities of Morocco have
recorded capital growth of over 30% in the last 3 years.
In addition, King Mohammed 6th has liberalised
the political and tax system -
rental
income is now exempt from tax for 5 years and no
capital gains are paid if the property is sold after 10 years. |
