Should I buy or rent a home in Rabat?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Rabat, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"At this point, just renting. Not difficult. I have friends who helped me, so it was not a problem," said another expat in Rabat, Morocco.
"When deciding whether to buy or rent a home in Rabat, it is important to consider your budget, lifestyle, and long-term plans. Buying a home in Rabat can be a great investment, as the city is growing in popularity and real estate prices are expected to rise. However, it is important to consider the costs associated with buying a home, such as closing costs, taxes, and maintenance. Renting a home in Rabat can be a more affordable option, and it can provide more flexibility if you are not sure how long you will be living in the city. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Rabat should be based on your individual needs and preferences," wrote a member who made the move to Rabat, Morocco.
