From first purchase to real estate guidance

In 2019, Katrien moved to the medina of Fez. Not a holiday, not a temporary adventure, but a conscious choice to get to know a completely different world. The narrow alleys, the centuries-old architecture, the Moroccan traditions: a world that fascinates, but is also more complex than you can estimate from Europe.

 

When she bought a home in the medina herself, she experienced this firsthand. The buying process in Morocco differs fundamentally from what you are used to in Belgium. Titled and untitled properties, notarial deeds and adular deeds, heirs who must agree, registrations that take weeks. Katrien was assisted by a local expert and realized how much difference that guidance made.

 

Be Fez Estate was born from that experience: real estate guidance for foreign buyers in the medina of Fez. In recent years, Katrien has helped dozens of buyers purchase riads, dars, and guesthouses, from finding the right property to handling the formalities at the notary, and from renovation supervision to applying for operating permits.

 

But demand grew. More and more buyers wanted to invest not only in Fez, but also in Casablanca, Morocco's economic heart, with a very different type of real estate market. Modern apartments, coastal villas, investment properties with high returns. When we met Katrien Nizar, someone with in-depth knowledge of the Casablanca market, local regulations, and a strong network, it was logical to establish Be Casa Estate together.

 

The same philosophy as Be Fez Estate: personal guidance, honest communication, and always with your best interests at heart. But now also in Casablanca.
