Oman\u2019s July housing-market signal is procedural as much as transactional. The Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning updated the Tatweer usufruct-contract service on July 2, giving eligible companies a route to reserve government land with defined plans, uses and fixed usufruct fees.<\/p>\n
The Tatweer service matters because developers can evaluate land plots with clearer permitted use, specifications and fee terms before committing capital. That reduces one of the frictions in project planning: uncertainty over whether a site can be secured on terms that support feasible housing or mixed-use development.<\/p>\n
Sultan Haitham City remains the flagship example west of Muscat, with a planned 14.8 square kilometres, 20,000 units, 18 neighborhoods and a stated USD5.2 billion project value. Phase-one enabling works are complete, multiple neighborhoods are under construction and first residents are expected in 2026-2027.<\/p>\n
Recent urban-planning legislation gives the sector a stronger framework for long-term city growth, land-use coordination and public infrastructure delivery. For developers, the practical issue is whether land access, approvals and phasing align well enough to avoid speculative oversupply.<\/p>\n
Oman\u2019s second-half market should favor developers that can connect Tatweer land terms with credible delivery plans. Muscat buyers will watch Sultan Haitham City closely as the first resident phases move from concept to lived neighborhoods.
