Leave your details: we call you back and book the free audit of your property, at no cost and with no obligation.
Buying a riad or apartment to let without knowing whether it can be licensed is the number-one investor trap in Marrakech: impossible room sizes, private bathrooms that cannot be built, an incompatible building use, 180,000 DH of works hiding behind pretty photos. Before you sign, we audit the property against the full grid — law 80-14, decree 2.23.441, decree 985-24 — and hand you a written report: compliant or convertible, at what cost, with what realistic revenue and licence timeline. Audit cost: 3,000 to 10,000 DH, deducted from the package if you continue with us. The best investment before the investment.
Ministerial Order 985-24: Ministerial Order 985-24’s adjustment window has been running since May 2025 and ends around May 2027: after that, operating without authorisation or classification means 10,000–50,000 DH fines and delisting. In Marrakech, inspections of tourist rentals are already multiplying. The audit is free and the quote locked in writing: the most expensive option is waiting.

What our clients say
“Three Gueliz apartments regularised in one grouped mission: shared audit, serial works, three files submitted together. Efficient.”
Mark T. · Marrakech“We called them for pre-purchase rental audit, then called them back for the air conditioning and the guest register. Nothing more to add.”
Isabelle C. · Marrakech“After the report I feared the fine. Full regularisation in ten weeks, the listing never went offline.”
Emma R. · MarrakechFrequently asked questions: Pre-purchase rental audit
The audit cost is deducted from the compliance package or the licence file. The report directly becomes the work plan: zero time lost between signing and the first job.
Because 985-24 compliance can change the real price of a property entirely: a riad listed at 2 million DH that needs 400,000 DH of upgrades is not worth the same as an already compliant riad. The audit gives you a costed negotiation argument — or saves you from a six-figure mistake.
A diagnosis on the full grid (A and B norms), a compliant/convertible/not-convertible verdict, works costed line by line, licence file cost and timeline, a realistic rental-revenue simulation for the area, and the legal watch points found (building use, co-ownership, access).
Yes, and better to know before signing: unrecoverable room sizes, technical impossibility of creating private bathrooms, co-ownership rules banning tourist letting, incompatible building use. In that case we tell you frankly — and you have avoided a catastrophe.
