diversificationThe TGV to Marrakech: Morocco's under-priced 2030 catalyst
Al Boraq — Africa's first high-speed line — already runs Tangier to Casablanca at 350 km/h. The extension under construction to Marrakech (~430 km) would put Tangier within ~2h40 of Marrakech ahead of the 2030 World Cup, on a ~MAD 96bn national rail programme. It quietly re-prices the inland and corridor markets — a real catalyst that's easy to miss next to the stadiums.
diversificationWater and desalination: the constraint Morocco's growth must clear
Morocco is structurally water-stressed (~600 m³ per person a year, near the absolute-scarcity line). Its answer is the largest desalination build-out in Africa — a ~MAD 143bn water programme, the Casablanca mega-plant, and a target of roughly half of drinking water from desalination by 2030. This is the enabling — and binding — layer beneath every other engine: industry, green hydrogen and agriculture all need the water to arrive.
diversificationMorocco's aerospace cluster: Nouaceur, Midparc and Casablanca property
Morocco's aerospace exports grew from under MAD 1bn two decades ago to ~MAD 26bn (~$3bn) in 2024 — ~140-155 firms and ~23,000-27,000 jobs around the Nouaceur / Midparc free zone near Casablanca. With Safran building Africa's first aircraft-engine assembly + MRO ecosystem, the cluster is moving up the value chain. For property: durable high-skill demand in the Casablanca-Settat corridor — a tailwind, not a price guarantee.

playbookResidency by property investment in Morocco — the realistic foreign-buyer path
Owning a Moroccan property does not grant residency. Morocco has no fast-track 'golden visa' like Portugal or Greece — the carte de séjour route is the standard prefecture dossier under Loi 02-03, with property serving as proof of address, not a basis. Here is the realistic ladder (1 → 3 → 5 or 10 years), the dossier, the IF/FCR paper trail, and how a foreign owner actually gets to live in their home.
playbookAll-in closing costs in Morocco: the foreign buyer's real envelope
The headline closing stack for a foreign cash buyer of a Moroccan resale property — registration duty 4% (DGI), land conservation ~1% (ANCFCC), notary honoraires on a sliding scale (~1% to 0.25%) + 20% VAT, plus the technical bank FX spread on the FCR wire-in. All-in: roughly 6.5–8.5% of price before any agency commission.
playbookCapital-gains tax (TPI) for foreign sellers of Moroccan property
When a foreigner sells Moroccan property, Taxe sur le Profit Immobilier (TPI) is withheld at source by the notaire — 20% of the gain, with a minimum of 3% of the sale price. A primary-residence exemption kicks in after 6 years, but it requires conditions most foreign buyers don't meet. The TPI paper trail interlocks with the FCR repatriation file — get it wrong and capital can get stuck in dirhams.

methodWhat the marocain.investments scores are NOT — the honest list
The scores are a relative quality-and-deal signal computed from listing data. Useful for triage. Not a regulated document, not a forecast, not a substitute for the notaire, the expert-évaluateur, the architect or the bank's appraiser. Here is the explicit list of what the rubric will NOT do for you.
methodConfidence calibration: what high / medium / low means on a score chip
A score chip is only as honest as the data behind it. marocain.investments rates overall confidence 'high' only when all three pillars (Window-View, M-Value AVM, WC 2030 Catalyst) resolve against primary data — and SUPPRESSES the chip rather than fabricate one if any pillar fails. Here is exactly what drops each pillar.
methodHow marocain.investments scored one real listing, end-to-end
Every listing runs through the same four-pillar rubric: Window-View Score (Gemini 2.5 Flash vision over the listing's own photos), Structural Quality (deterministic build-era + finishes proxy), Macro-Catalyst (a sourced per-city read of funded macro forces: Tanger Med, the Kenitra gigafactory, CFC, OCP, the Abraham Accords and the WC 2030 build-out), and the M-Value AVM (district + typology + ±20% surface comparables). Fused into a {GIN} Quality verdict and a {GIN} Deal verdict — with the methodology label exposed at /api/public/listings/$id.
