Buying property in Marrakech? Start with someone on your side.
Before you commit to a property in Marrakech, get an independent second pair of eyes. We examine the asking price, comparable properties, the claims in the listing, what is missing from it, and the questions you should ask before going any further.
Found a property? Send us the listing before you buy.
The agent marketing a property generally represents the seller, or is paid when the sale completes. We are paid by you and have nothing to sell you. Your written review arrives within 3 working days and covers:
- How the asking price compares with comparable listings and the market data available for that area, with the sources named so you can check them.
- What the listing is not telling you: surface counted with patios and terraces, title status, licence claims, condition red flags.
- The exact questions to put to the seller, the agent and the notary, in writing.
Free while we are testing this.
We are testing this new service, so for now there is nothing to pay. Send a property you are considering and we will review it free, and we answer within 2 working days. Anything you send while this page says so stays free, even if we start charging the next day. After that it is £49 a listing.

Buying from abroad is harder than it should be
Buying property in Morocco from abroad can be surprisingly opaque. Listings rarely tell the whole story, asking prices are difficult to benchmark from a distance, and most of the people helping with a transaction are paid when it completes. Majorelle was created to give buyers an independent second opinion before they commit.
Why our opinion is independent
Majorelle Investments reviews your listing against a documented method. We are paid by you, never by a seller, an agent or a developer. We have no properties of our own, no listings, and we take no introduction fee from anybody. The fee is the same whatever the property costs, so nothing about our income changes depending on whether you buy.
How a review is produced
- We collect comparable listings for the same area and property type, and name every source in the review so you can open them yourself.
- We read the listing against what it omits: whether the surface is the title surface or the usable one, what the title status appears to be, whether a claimed licence is specific enough to check.
- We flag anything inconsistent between the photographs, the text and the price.
- We write the questions you should put to the seller, the agent and the notary, in the order you should ask them.
- We do not answer legal questions ourselves, contact anyone on your behalf, or visit the property. No notary is instructed by us and none is included in the fee.

A second opinion and a checklist. Not due diligence.
We are not lawyers, notaries, surveyors or valuers, and a review is none of those things. We read the listing, compare it with the listings and market data available for that area, and tell you what to ask and whom to ask. Morocco does not publish a register of completed sale prices, so nobody can honestly quote you one, and we will always show you what our comparison is based on. Title can only be verified by a notary against the titre foncier at the ANCFCC. We write out the questions for you to put to your own notary, in the words to use. We do not instruct one for you, and no notary is included in the fee.
