Land and farms for sale in Tunisia

Buying land in Tunisia is often the starting point of a life project: building the family home, planting an olive grove, launching a farm or putting your money into land, a safe haven prized by Tunisians and the diaspora alike. On Houni.tn, the property listings portal, private individuals and professionals publish offers for land and farms in every region of the country every day.

From the housing estates of L'Aouina and Ain Zaghouan to the fertile plains of Béja, by way of the orchards of Mornag and the farms of Cap Bon, the supply is wide and prices vary greatly. Before signing, take the time to define your project and check the property's legal status: that is the key to a successful purchase.

Building plot, farmland or farm: which property for which project?

Each category of land serves a specific use and comes with different planning rules.

• The building plot: located in a zone approved for development, often in an approved estate, it allows you to obtain a building permit for a house or an apartment building.
• Farmland: intended for crops, orchards or livestock, it is governed by specific regulations, notably for foreign buyers.
• The farm: it combines land and buildings (a house, sheds, a well or borehole) and lends itself to farming as well as agritourism projects.

Where to buy land or a farm in Tunisia?

Mornag and Morneg: the countryside at the gates of Tunis

About thirty minutes from the capital, the Mornag region (also spelt Morneg) is highly sought after for its farmland planted with vines and olive trees, its farms with wells and its large plots at prices that are still reasonable.

L'Aouina and Ain Zaghouan: building in Greater Tunis

For a construction project, the plots for sale in L'Aouina or Ain Zaghouan Nord offer a strategic location between central Tunis, La Marsa and the airport, in fast-expanding neighbourhoods.

Kairouan, Béja, Zaghouan and Cap Bon: agricultural land

Kairouan and Béja concentrate vast cereal lands and olive groves at attractive prices per hectare. Zaghouan charms with its farms at the foot of the Djebel, while Cap Bon remains the benchmark for citrus fruit and market-garden crops.

Blue title, boundary survey, services: securing your land purchase

Land is the segment where legal vigilance matters most. Here are the essential checks before any preliminary agreement:

1. Insist on a blue title: a land title registered with the Land Property Registry is the best guarantee against disputes. Beware of land sold on a simple unregistered notarised deed.
2. Have a boundary survey carried out: a chartered surveyor marks out the plot precisely and confirms the stated surface area.
3. Check the services: connection to water (SONEDE), electricity (STEG) and sewerage (ONAS), or the cost of the work to plan for.
4. Consult the urban development plan: the municipality will confirm the zoning of the area and the applicable building rules.
5. Go through a notary: they secure the transaction and the registration of the deed.
