Oman’s real estate market is becoming more document-driven. The official Gov.om usufruct service<\/a> was updated on July 2 with fee details, while Sultan Haitham City’s published profile shows phase-one enabling works complete and multiple neighborhoods under construction.<\/p>\n

Fees Are Now Easier To Underwrite<\/h4>\n

The service page sets a 10-rial fee for each usufruct contract model renewal, cadastral drawing fees of 12 rials in Salalah and most Muscat wilayats, and property registration fees at 1% of the usable land value. Annual land rental remains tied to use and area.<\/p>\n

Usufruct Supports Investment Land<\/h4>\n

The service is designed for government land use where ownership remains with the Sultanate. That makes it relevant for commercial, industrial and service-sector projects that support new communities but need clear land-cost assumptions before financing.<\/p>\n

Sultan Haitham City Is The Demand Anchor<\/h4>\n

The city’s official profile lists 14.8 square kilometres, 20,000 homes, 18 neighborhoods and first residents expected in 2026-2027. As early phases sell out, land and service infrastructure around Al Seeb become central to Muscat’s growth map.<\/p>\n

Outlook<\/h4>\n

Oman’s second-half market should favor projects with clean land rights, published fees and visible infrastructure. Buyers and investors should track usufruct documentation and Sultan Haitham City delivery milestones together.<\/p>\n

For Oman, the immediate check is whether the reported movement appears in signed contracts, lender approvals, permits, title records, or completed handovers rather than only asking prices. Buyers and agents should compare the named locations above with current listings and documents before extrapolating the story nationally.<\/p>\n
