How do I find a place to live in Morocco?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"Very difficult and expensive to rent here if you want a pool and garden, we ended up buying a villa. We found our home on the internet and by asking local people about what was for sale in the area," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Marrakech, Morocco.
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Morocco is to use online resources such as websites and social media. Websites such as Airbnb, Expat.com, and EasyRoommate are great for finding short-term and long-term rentals. Additionally, social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter can be used to search for rental postings from locals. Additionally, it is possible to find a place to live by asking around in the local community. Many people in Morocco are willing to help newcomers find a place to live, and asking around can be a great way to find a place to stay," commented one expat who made the move to Morocco.
