In 2025, how much container traffic did the port of Tanger Med handle, and why does it matter to a Tangier broker?

1. About 11.1 million TEU, up 8.4%: port and free-zone jobs feed demand for worker and manager housing

Morocco co-hosts the 2030 World Cup (8 June to 21 July 2030) with Spain and Portugal. Which of these cities is NOT one of the six Moroccan host cities?

1. Agadir
2. Fès
3. Oujda
4. Tangier

A client in October 2026 says the 2030 World Cup guarantees a jump in Casablanca flat prices. Which answer is the most accurate?

1. Yes: prices in host cities rose about 20% after AFCON 2025, so the same will happen
2. Yes, but only in Benslimane, because the final is confirmed at the Grand Stade Hassan II
3. No: a six-week tournament has no effect at all on property
4. The proven effects are infrastructure and tourism (hotels were 80% to 95% full during AFCON 2025); no study has measured a property price effect, so sell connectivity and long-term demand, not a guaranteed jump

1. Prices +7%, transactions +0.6%
2. Prices -2.4%, transactions -40.2%
3. Prices +0.7%, transactions +6.3%

In Q1 2026 the national price index fell 2.4% and transactions fell 40.2% against Q4 2025. In Q2 2026 transactions rebounded 11% quarter on quarter. How should a broker present this to an investor?

2. Quarter-on-quarter moves are volatile; the year-on-year view in Q2 2026 (prices +0.7%, transactions +6.3%) shows a stable, slowly rising market
3. The Q2 rebound proves a boom, with prices set to rise double digits in 2026
4. The index only covers Casablanca, so it says nothing about other cities

1. Melkia property cannot be rented to tourists
2. Melkia property can only be sold to Moroccan nationals

1. MAD 0, because the cash part is below MAD 300,000
2. MAD 18,000
3. MAD 10,000

In January 2026, HCP figures reported by the press counted about 2.4 million vacant or second homes, close to 30% of the urban stock, while a housing deficit of about 330,000 units remains. What is the main lesson for an investor?

1. Morocco has no housing shortage, so prices will fall everywhere
2. Demand and supply are mismatched: liquidity and resale depend on a product priced for local budgets, as mid-range housing has been neglected while much luxury and second-home stock sits empty
3. Vacant homes are illegal, so they will soon be seized and resold cheaply
4. Second homes only exist in Marrakech, so other cities are safe
