Why Morocco? Why now?

[Janoulaki]

Short reason why a lot of investors invest in Morocco.

Do you agree with this statement?

Morocco is a currently a unique location for property investors and offers the opportunity to purchase property early in an emerging market at prices very favourable to most other destinations.
Rental income from Morocco based property is also of great interest to investors as good rental yields are achievable from property in the new luxury resorts currently under construction. It is expected that mortgage payments and bills can be covered for the year from the rental income achieved from peak season months (only June to September) and rental based on a 2 bed apartment costing around €100,000 is expected to be around €2,000 per month.
What is unique about the property market in Morocco is the sense of security for investors: with tourism already improving at a fast rate and buy-to-let investors reporting 85% occupancy rates during the high season, Morocco offers a safe arena in which to purchase property.
