Insights
- The average apartment price in Tangier in 2026 is not the price you see in Malabata, because the citywide market includes cheaper districts such as Bni Makada, Hjar Ennhal and older outskirts.
- A clean two-bedroom apartment in Tangier is the safest product for most foreign buyers, because it can rent to local families, expats and Moroccan buyers returning from abroad.
- Malabata and Quartier de la Plage are easy to understand and easy to like, but their apartment prices in Tangier already include a strong coastal lifestyle premium.
- The cheapest apartment areas in Tangier can show better yields on paper, but resale to another foreign buyer is usually harder in Bni Makada or far-edge districts.
- A foreign buyer should usually budget 8% above the apartment price in Tangier before furniture, because registration duty, land registry fees and notary costs add up quickly.
- Tangier is not only a tourist city, and this matters for apartment buyers because Tanger Med, logistics jobs and industrial activity support more stable rental demand.
- Marchan, Mozart, Sania and Administrative are often more balanced than the famous beachfront districts, because they combine daily-life demand with lower entry prices.
- Numbeo’s May 2026 Tangier figures are useful as a cross-check, but Agenz is more useful for neighborhood-level apartment prices in Tangier.
- For a non-resident foreign buyer, the real cash needed for a 900,000 MAD apartment in Tangier can easily reach 425,000 to 525,000 MAD before furniture.
How much do apartments really cost in Tangier in 2026?
What's the average and median apartment price in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, the estimated average apartment price in Tangier is about 930,000 MAD, or about $101,000 and €87,000, while the estimated median apartment price in Tangier is about 820,000 MAD, or about $89,000 and €77,000.
That means the average apartment price per square meter in Tangier in 2026 is around 10,500 MAD, or about $1,135 and €980, while the median price is closer to 9,800 MAD per m², or about $1,060 and €915, which is around 910 MAD, $98 and €85 per square foot.
For most standard apartments in Tangier in 2026, a realistic purchase range is 700,000 to 1,400,000 MAD, or about $76,000 to $151,000 and €65,000 to €131,000, with cheaper local stock below that and premium coastal stock above it.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Bank Al-Maghrib to build the Tangier price range.
We gave Agenz more weight for neighborhoods and Numbeo more weight for expat-facing asking-price checks.
We also adjusted the final numbers with our own Tangier apartment model, because official data does not publish live medians by neighborhood.
How much is a studio apartment in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, a typical studio apartment in Tangier costs about 500,000 MAD, or about $54,000 and €47,000, if the buyer wants a normal unit rather than the cheapest possible apartment.
In practice, entry-level to mid-range studios in Tangier usually cost 300,000 to 600,000 MAD, or about $32,000 to $65,000 and €28,000 to €56,000, while high-end studios in Malabata, Iberia or Quartier de la Plage can reach 550,000 to 750,000 MAD, or about $59,000 to $81,000 and €51,000 to €70,000.
Most studio apartments in Tangier are around 38 to 45 m², so a buyer should be careful with very small studios because the price per m² can look high even when the total price looks affordable.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Mubawab to estimate studio prices.
We multiplied Tangier neighborhood prices per m² by common studio sizes, then checked the result against visible listing ranges.
We also used our own size assumptions, because studio prices in Tangier change sharply between local districts and beach districts.
How much is a one-bedroom apartment in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, a typical one-bedroom apartment in Tangier costs about 650,000 MAD, or about $70,000 and €61,000, for a normal 55 to 65 m² unit in a practical district.
Entry-level to mid-range one-bedroom apartments in Tangier usually cost 450,000 to 800,000 MAD, or about $49,000 to $86,000 and €42,000 to €75,000, while high-end one-bedrooms in Malabata, Iberia or Quartier de la Plage often cost 850,000 to 1,050,000 MAD, or about $92,000 to $114,000 and €79,000 to €98,000.
A typical one-bedroom apartment in Tangier is around 55 to 65 m², and this size is usually enough for one person, a couple or a furnished rental aimed at mid-market tenants.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Masaken for the one-bedroom estimate.
We treated 60 m² as the main one-bedroom benchmark for Tangier apartments.
We then adjusted the estimate with our own Tangier buyer model, because premium furnished units can sit far above ordinary resale stock.
How much is a two-bedroom apartment in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, a typical two-bedroom apartment in Tangier costs about 900,000 MAD, or about $97,000 and €84,000, for a standard 80 to 95 m² apartment in a liquid middle-market area.
Entry-level to mid-range two-bedroom apartments in Tangier usually cost 550,000 to 1,150,000 MAD, or about $59,000 to $124,000 and €51,000 to €107,000, while high-end two-bedrooms in Malabata, Iberia, Boulevard Mohammed V and Quartier de la Plage often cost 1,050,000 to 1,500,000 MAD, or about $114,000 to $162,000 and €98,000 to €140,000.
By the way, you will find much more detailed price ranges for apartments in our property pack covering the property market in Tangier.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Mubawab for the two-bedroom estimate.
We used 85 to 90 m² as the main working size for a normal Tangier two-bedroom.
We gave this segment extra attention in our own analysis because it is often the most liquid apartment type for foreign buyers.
How much is a three-bedroom apartment in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, a typical three-bedroom apartment in Tangier costs about 1,250,000 MAD, or about $135,000 and €117,000, for a normal family-size apartment in a good but not luxury district.
Entry-level to mid-range three-bedroom apartments in Tangier usually cost 850,000 to 1,600,000 MAD, or about $92,000 to $173,000 and €79,000 to €150,000, while high-end three-bedrooms in Malabata, Plage, Iberia and Rmilat often cost 1,500,000 to 2,300,000 MAD, or about $162,000 to $249,000 and €140,000 to €215,000.
A typical three-bedroom apartment in Tangier is around 110 to 130 m², with older central apartments sometimes offering more space but needing more repairs.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Mubawab for three-bedroom pricing.
We used family-apartment sizes that are common in Tangier, then adjusted for building age and neighborhood quality.
We also used our own resale-risk scoring, because larger apartments can be harder to resell if the layout is dated.
What's the price gap between new and resale apartments in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, new-build apartments in Tangier usually cost about 15% to 25% more than similar resale apartments, with a practical average premium of around 18%.
The estimated average price for new-build apartments in Tangier is about 12,500 MAD per m², or about $1,350 and €1,170, when you mix mid-market new projects with more expensive coastal developments.
The estimated average price for resale apartments in Tangier is about 10,500 MAD per m², or about $1,135 and €980, although older stock in Marchan, Mozart and Boulevard Mohammed V can need extra repair money after purchase.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Mubawab to compare new and resale pricing.
We separated asking prices from likely transaction prices, because new projects often advertise stronger finishes and lifestyle features.
We also used our own Tangier stock-quality checks, since elevators, parking and sea views can explain much of the new-build premium.

Can I afford to buy in Tangier in 2026?
What's the typical total budget (all-in) to buy an apartment in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, a foreign buyer should expect a typical all-in budget of about 965,000 to 975,000 MAD, or about $104,000 to $105,000 and €90,000 to €91,000, to buy a standard 900,000 MAD apartment in Tangier before furniture.
This all-in apartment budget in Tangier usually includes the purchase price, registration duty, land registry fees, notary fees, stamp and admin costs, possible mortgage setup costs and a small safety buffer.
We go deeper and try to understand what costs can be avoided or minimized (and how) in our Tangier property pack.
Sources and methodology: we used DGI, ANCFCC and Aqarrati for buyer costs.
We used 7% to 8% as the core acquisition-cost range before furniture and agency commission.
We then added our own Tangier repair assumptions, because older apartments often need paint, kitchen work or air-conditioning upgrades.
What down payment is typical to buy in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, a non-resident foreign buyer in Tangier should expect a typical down payment of 40% to 50%, or about 360,000 to 450,000 MAD on a 900,000 MAD apartment, which is about $39,000 to $49,000 and €34,000 to €42,000.
The minimum down payment that Moroccan banks may accept for stronger resident borrowers can be around 20% to 30%, but foreign income, non-resident status and bank valuation often push the required cash higher in Tangier.
For better mortgage terms in Tangier, a foreign buyer should usually plan for 40% down, because a larger deposit can reduce bank risk and make the file easier to approve.
Sources and methodology: we used Bank Al-Maghrib, Numbeo and Wafir for financing context.
We treated foreign-buyer borrowing as more conservative than local resident borrowing.
We also used our own mortgage-risk assumptions, because banks can value a property below the agreed purchase price.

Which neighborhoods are cheapest or priciest in Tangier in 2026?
How much does the price per m² for apartments vary by neighborhood in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, apartment prices in Tangier vary from about 6,500 to 17,000 MAD per m², or about $700 to $1,840 and €610 to €1,590, depending mainly on neighborhood, building quality and distance from the coast.
The most affordable neighborhoods in Tangier include Bni Makada, Hjar Ennhal, parts of Mesnana and older outskirts, where standard apartment prices often sit around 6,500 to 8,500 MAD per m², or about $700 to $920 and €610 to €795.
The most expensive apartment neighborhoods in Tangier include Malabata, Quartier de la Plage, Iberia, Boulevard Mohammed V and some coastal or hillside pockets, where prices often reach 13,000 to 17,000 MAD per m², or about $1,405 to $1,840 and €1,215 to €1,590.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Masaken for neighborhood prices.
We used Agenz as the backbone because it gives specific Tangier neighborhood prices.
We widened the ranges with our own listing checks, because real units vary strongly by floor, view, parking and building age.
What neighborhoods are best for first-time buyers on a budget in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, the best Tangier neighborhoods for first-time buyers on a budget are Marchan, Mozart and Sania, with Administrative and selected parts of Mesnana also worth checking.
In those budget-friendly Tangier neighborhoods, a realistic apartment price range is often 600,000 to 1,100,000 MAD, or about $65,000 to $119,000 and €56,000 to €103,000, depending on size and condition.
These neighborhoods work because they offer practical daily life, better central access than far-edge districts, and a wider resale pool than very cheap local-only areas.
The trade-off is that many affordable apartments in Marchan, Mozart and Administrative are older, so the buyer must check elevators, façades, plumbing, parking and syndic management before signing.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Mubawab and Numbeo for budget-area checks.
We compared price, resale depth, transport convenience and likely rental demand.
We also used our own buyer-safety filter, because the cheapest Tangier apartment is not always the safest first purchase.
Which neighborhoods have the fastest-rising apartment prices in Tangier in 2026?
As of June 2026, the fastest-rising apartment areas in Tangier appear to be Malabata, Mghogha and Sania, with Mesnana and Mnar also showing strong interest from buyers priced out of the top coastal districts.
Our estimated year-over-year apartment price increase is around 6% to 9% in Malabata, 5% to 8% in Mghogha and 4% to 7% in Sania, although exact neighborhood growth is not officially published in Morocco.
The main driver is that Tangier combines beach demand, local family demand, Al Boraq connectivity and Tanger Med-related jobs, so the market is broader than a simple holiday-home market.
Sources and methodology: we used Bank Al-Maghrib, ANCFCC and Tanger Med for demand context.
We used Agenz neighborhood price levels to identify where demand pressure is already visible.
We also used our own momentum scoring, because official sources do not publish live Tangier neighborhood growth rates.

What extra costs will I pay on top of the apartment price in Tangier in 2026?
What are all the buyer closing costs when you buy an apartment in Tangier?
For a typical 900,000 MAD apartment in Tangier, the buyer closing costs are usually about 65,000 to 75,000 MAD, or about $7,000 to $8,100 and €6,100 to €7,000, before any buyer-side agency commission.
The main closing costs in Tangier are registration duty, land registry fees, notary fees, VAT on notary fees, stamp fees, certificates, admin costs and possible mortgage setup costs.
The largest closing cost is usually the registration duty, because standard built residential property in Morocco is commonly taxed at 4% of the declared purchase value.
Some costs can vary, especially agency commission, notary fee details, mortgage setup costs and small administrative items, but the public taxes and land registry fees are not normal negotiation items.
Sources and methodology: we used DGI registration duties, ANCFCC fees and Aqarrati for closing costs.
We separated mandatory public charges from commercial costs that may vary by transaction.
We also used our own buyer-budget model, because foreign buyers often forget bank, furniture and repair costs.
On average, how much are buyer closing costs as a percentage of the purchase price for an apartment in Tangier?
For most apartment purchases in Tangier, buyers should budget around 7% to 8% of the purchase price for closing costs if there is no buyer-side agency commission.
A realistic low-to-high range is about 7% to 11%, with the lower end covering simple cash purchases and the higher end covering agency commission or extra mortgage-related costs.
We actually cover all these costs and strategies to minimize them in our pack about the real estate market in Tangier.
Sources and methodology: we used DGI, ANCFCC and Masaken to estimate buyer closing costs.
We checked each public fee against practical real-estate cost guides for Morocco.
We also keep our own transaction-cost grid, because real buyer budgets need a margin, not just a tax formula.

What are the ongoing monthly and yearly costs of an apartment in Tangier in 2026?
What are typical HOA fees in Tangier right now?
As of June 2026, HOA fees, often called syndic fees in Tangier, are common in apartment buildings and a typical two-bedroom owner should budget about 400 to 700 MAD per month, or about $43 to $76 and €37 to €65.
Basic older buildings in Tangier may charge only 100 to 250 MAD per month, or about $11 to $27 and €9 to €23, while newer residences with elevators, parking, security or a pool can charge 500 to 1,800 MAD per month, or about $54 to $195 and €47 to €168.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo cost of living and Wise for ownership-cost context.
We linked HOA fees to building services, because a lift, guard, garage and pool change the monthly bill.
We also used our own Tangier ownership-cost assumptions, because official sources do not publish syndic fees.
What utilities should I budget monthly in Tangier right now?
As of June 2026, a typical apartment owner in Tangier should budget about 950 to 1,500 MAD per month for utilities, or about $103 to $162 and €89 to €140, for a normal 80 to 90 m² apartment.
The realistic utility range in Tangier is about 700 to 1,900 MAD per month, or about $76 to $205 and €65 to €178, depending on apartment size, air-conditioning use, internet plan and how many people live there.
This utility budget usually includes electricity, water, basic local services, internet, mobile plans and gas bottles for cooking.
Electricity is usually the most expensive utility for apartment owners in Tangier, especially in summer when air-conditioning is used often in coastal and newer apartments.
Sources and methodology: we used Numbeo Tangier, Wise Tangier and Numbeo property data for utility checks.
We used an 85 m² two-bedroom apartment as the main benchmark.
We also adjusted the estimate for Tangier’s summer cooling needs and the higher costs of furnished rental use.
How much is property tax on apartments in Tangier?
As of June 2026, a normal apartment owner in Tangier should often budget about 900 to 2,000 MAD per year for local property taxes on a typical 900,000 MAD apartment, or about $97 to $216 and €84 to €187.
Property tax in Tangier is not calculated directly on the purchase price, because Morocco’s taxe d’habitation and taxe de services communaux are based mainly on official rental value.
A realistic annual range is about 500 to 5,000 MAD, or about $54 to $541 and €47 to €467, with small owner-occupied apartments near the bottom and premium rental or second-home cases closer to the top.
Sources and methodology: we used DGI taxe d'habitation, DGI taxe de services communaux and DGI for tax logic.
We converted the official rental-value method into a simple buyer budget.
We also used our own Tangier value bands, because two apartments with the same price can have different tax bills.
What's the yearly building maintenance cost in Tangier?
As of June 2026, a typical apartment owner in Tangier should reserve about 5,000 to 10,000 MAD per year for private apartment maintenance, or about $540 to $1,080 and €470 to €935.
The realistic maintenance range is about 3,000 to 25,000 MAD per year, or about $325 to $2,700 and €280 to €2,335, depending on whether the apartment is new, older, furnished, rented or exposed to sea air.
Common maintenance costs in Tangier include paint, plumbing, electrical repairs, air-conditioning service, appliance replacement, window sealing, bathroom repairs and small furniture replacement.
These maintenance costs are usually separate from HOA or syndic fees, because the syndic covers shared areas while the owner pays for repairs inside the apartment.
Sources and methodology: we used Agenz, Numbeo and Wise to frame ownership costs.
We applied a 0.5% to 1% yearly maintenance rule to typical Tangier apartment values.
We raised the range for older central stock, because humidity, façades, lifts and sea air can create surprise costs.
How much does home insurance cost in Tangier?
As of June 2026, a typical home insurance policy for an apartment in Tangier costs about 1,800 to 2,500 MAD per year, or about $195 to $270 and €168 to €234, for a standard furnished two-bedroom.
A realistic annual insurance range is about 800 to 5,000 MAD, or about $86 to $541 and €75 to €467, depending on apartment value, contents, liability coverage, rental use and building security.
Home insurance is usually optional for cash apartment owners in Tangier, but a bank may require insurance when the apartment is financed with a mortgage.
Sources and methodology: we used Bank Al-Maghrib, Numbeo and Wise for financial and household-cost context.
We used Moroccan insurance-market practice rather than one single insurer quote.
We also adjusted the estimate by apartment value and rental use, because furnished rentals need stronger contents and liability coverage.
