Why Invest in Morocco Property?
There are good reasons for investing in property rather than the Stock Market. Here you can read about the advantages of investing in a stable country like Morocco.
No investment today offers the stability and simplicity coupled with the excellent return offered by investing in property. The stock market can offer high returns but it is a very volatile and dangerous place. This is especially true for the non-professional as there are many external factors that can effect your financial investment. In recent years major stock markets have generally been under-performing and property investment now stands heads and shoulders above other forms of investment.
Advantages of Investing in Property
Property is now the wise investor’s weapon of choice. No other investment allows you to purchase with other peoples’ money (the bank) and then pay this back with other peoples’ money (the rental income from tenants). If you own property you can release equity against this, although there is no law that states that your property will increase in value year on year, it is accepted that a well maintained property in a reasonable area will appreciate in value.
- 50% of individuals mentioned on “The Times Rich List” made their money through investing in property.
- A property worth just €4,000 30 years ago would be today worth around €225,000.
- Equities or Stocks can be volatile, as with the .com crash. Property however is historically stable.
Buying specifically for investment allows you to remove the emotion you’re your purchase and look at the property as an investment vehicle. This might mean utilizing a re-assignable contract option and selling at a substantial profit prior to completion or taking the buy-to-let situation and generating a reliable rental income as well as substantial capital appreciation.
Why Invest In property in Morocco?
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.
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.
The Moroccan King Mohammed VI and the UAE have allocated huge investment to drastically increasing tourism further, with a goal of 10 million per year by 2010. This investment along with the creation of several tax advantages also helps investors to feel comfortable in investing in property in Morocco.

- Morocco is a free market economy and allows free movement of money.
- Stunning golf courses, tennis clubs, riding clubs, water skiing, sailing, scuba diving, hunting, hiking, camel treks, culture
- Mediterranean climate – hot, dry summers and mild winters
- French, Spanish & English widely spoken as well as traditional Arabic
- Site Seeing – from bustling Medinas and ancient cities to snow capped mountains or golden beaches
- Easily accessible (Tangiers) via helicopter, ferry, fast train or regular budget flights.
- “Open Skies” policy activated on 1st Jan 2006 will allow low cost airlines to service Morocco and create competition, which will lower fares.
- Costa del Sol is just 30 minutes away by hydrofoil from Tangiers
- Experience Moorish culture at its best

Why Invest in Italy?
The time for buying bargain property in Italy is definitely not over. The Italian property market remains an exciting market to invest in.
With a highly active tourist market, Italy makes an attractive investment to the property buyer. Due to its central position, Italy is easily accessible from most European capitals.
Not only are there large areas of “undiscovered Italy”, but also many knowledgeable investors are predicting that if you buy property in Italy now, you will be buying ahead of a surge of investors that will be heading to Italy in the near future.
Low cost airlines have opened routes to many of Italy’s regional airports; this is having a knock on effect on property prices in these areas, especially as there are many destinations in the hitherto less popular places.
Many of the new areas that are finding their way onto the property market are on the islands of Sicily and Sardinia where property prices are about 25% cheaper than on the mainland. The regions of Puglia, Le Marche and Abruzzo are also up and coming investment regions. In these areas bargains ranging from as little as £20,000.00 can still be found.
New Finance Laws
The government has introduced new finance laws relating to the buying and selling of residential property between private individuals. Now the buyer declares the actual purchase price in the deed of sale but only pays tax on the difference of this re-valued rateable value. This helps to make the market more transparent and helps buyers not to become unwittingly involved in money laundering transactions.
Italian Property is Market Rising
House prices, countrywide, have risen 7.2% in the first quarter of 2006 according to the Knight Frank Global Index. However in areas where no frills airlines are opening routes, the projected increases are as high as 20%
Rental Prospects Are Good.
For those who are interested in the buy-to-let market, the high tourist numbers coming to Italy are encouraging. Increasingly tourists are becoming interested not only in visiting the large cities, but in rural tourism as well. This bodes well for those who invest in converting old Italian houses into fabulous modern residences. There are government grants available for those undertaking renovation projects in rural areas.
The low cost airline revolution has also changed the way holidays are booked and holidaymakers tend to book over the internet. This has increased the demand for self-catering properties in these areas.
Foreign tourists are not the only market in Italy. Italians take great pleasure in enjoying their own country and make a point of travelling around it, therefore creating a strong internal market.
Investing in the north and around the lakes can double your rental prospects as you can benefit not only from the summer season but also from winter ski holidays. However remember property prices become more favourable the further south you go.

Favourable Tax Legislation.
Italy is reforming its tax legislation. There is no wealth or capital gains tax. If you take out residency it is possible to cut your property costs considerably.
Reasons Why Italy is an Intelligent Property Investment Location
- Italy is a primary tourist destination.
- There is strong rental potential from both the tourist market and a strong internal market.
- Low cost airlines have put Italy at the centre of their growth.
- The property market is rising steadily up to 20% in “undiscovered” areas.
- There are still “bargains” to be had in some areas.
- There is no wealth or capital gains tax to be paid in Italy.
- Rural tourism is becoming a strong tourist market and there are grants for property renovation in rural areas.

Why Invest In Dubai Property?
Property is cheap in absolute and relative terms. For example at this moment, an average villa will cost around $1,000 per square metre in comparison to London Docklands where it would cost $5,000 per square metre. There are very few modern cities in the world where high-standard property is priced so low.
Foreign OwnershipDubai is in the process of creating an international property market from scratch, with foreign ownership of freehold only introduced last year. Thus buyers are given an exceptionally good deal to encourage them to be pioneers.
Shortage of supplyThe Dubai Government is working hard to prevent a shortage of supply and is giving land to developers as an incentive.

Dubai is after all growing its GDP by 7-8% a year and shows no sign of slowing down, quite the contrary.
Rising Building CostsA fundamental influence on property prices are rising building costs. The low US dollar is pushing up the cost of materials from Europe which is pushing energy prices to its peak.
Tax Free IncomeDubai is a city where a lot of people earn high tax-free salaries and are in a position to support higher house prices. This is a city with a 20-year track record of strong economic growth and will continue to attract foreign and regional inward investment.
International Business CentreLong recognised as the leading regional trading hub of the Middle East, Dubai has now become an international business and re-export centre.
The country has developed rapidly over the past 10 years and has transformed itself from an oil dependent regional entrepot into a highly diversified international business centre of global significance, which offers opportunities for UK business people in all sectors. At present, over 500 UK companies have been set up in Dubai.
TourismOver 3.4 million tourists visited Dubai in 2001 and this figure is expected to grow to in excess of 6.0 million by 2010. Dubai is going from strength to strength.
