Dar Ilyan

Build, refurbish, invest

Developments & Investment

For investors and buyers who would rather build than buy finished. We find the land or the building, a member of our team oversees the works on site, and when it is done we sell it, let it or manage it for you.

What we do

Riads, rebuilt

We take riads back to the walls and rebuild them for modern living — structure, plumbing, light — while keeping what makes a medina house worth owning.

Villas, from the ground up

From the plot to the keys: finding the land, the plans, the permits, and following the build until handover.

Apartments on land

Small apartment buildings on well-placed land — for example in Gueliz, the centre of Marrakech — designed to sell or to let.

Off-plan

Off-plan opportunities around Marrakech, shared on request. Every sale is signed before a notary.

Villa Noureddine

Who it’s for

Investors, in Morocco or abroad, looking for a project that earns — and buyers who want a home built or rebuilt to their own plans, without managing builders from a distance.

How it works

  1. Your brief

    Budget, purpose — to live in, to let or to resell — and timing.

  2. The site

    We source land or a property, off-market included, and have the title checked by a notary before you commit.

  3. The build

    Plans, permits and trusted contractors. A member of our team oversees the works on site and keeps you updated.

  4. What comes next

    We sell it, let it long-term, or hand it to Casanova Stays to manage as a holiday villa.
