A property project in the heart of the medinas
Buying in a medina means choosing both a home and a way of living. The light entering the courtyard, the privacy of a terrace, the walk to the front door and the life of the neighbourhood matter as much as the advertised floor area. Medina.immo, DUPEYRAT REALTY’s website dedicated to property in the medinas, helps you prepare your search for a riad or traditional house in Essaouira and Marrakech.
In Essaouira, the coastal setting calls for a close look at ventilation, wind exposure and building maintenance. In Marrakech, visit the neighbourhood and the derb — the lane leading to the property — at different times of day: street activity, quiet rooms, shade and access can create very different living conditions. In both cities, an attractive photograph tells you little about the condition of a roof, the work a house may need or how building materials can reach it.
Whether you want a main home, a second home or a property for a guest-house project, start with your intended use. Compare buildings and allow for work in your overall budget. When selling, explain what distinguishes your house while documenting its condition and floor areas. Explore our pages on the two medinas, then share your search or valuation request with DUPEYRAT REALTY.

Property in Essaouira’s medina
When choosing a house in Essaouira’s medina, compare its location with the practicalities of everyday use. Exposure to sea air, ventilation, terrace maintenance and signs of damp deserve particular attention. The route from a gate or parking area also matters for viewings, deliveries and possible building work. Our city page helps you prepare questions about the area and each property.
Explore Essaouira’s medina →Property in Marrakech’s medina
In Marrakech, a riad search begins with the choice of area and intended use. Look at the approach to the house, activity in neighbouring streets, the layout around the courtyard, natural light and the condition of terraces. An address that suits a private home may meet the needs of a guest-house project differently. Compare neighbourhoods and identify the checks specific to the property before making a commitment.
Explore Marrakech’s medina →Selling or valuing a property in a medina
A valuation needs to consider location, access, floor areas, building condition, known work and the documents available. The number of bedrooms alone is not enough to compare two houses. To prepare for a discussion, gather the information you have: the property’s location, floor areas, photographs, occupancy and completed work. Then tell us about your plans to sell or request a valuation.
