FAQ
Real estate in Oman, explained
The Makan knowledge hub collects practical, sourced guides for anyone buying, renting or investing in Omani property: where foreigners can own freehold (ITC), how Usufruct works, mortgages for residents and non-residents, the hidden costs on top of the price, what makes a good investment, Muscat neighbourhood guides and new off-plan projects.
Rules and fees in Oman change by official decision, so every guide shows when it was last reviewed and links to its sources. Have a specific question? Ask the AI assistant, in English or Arabic.
Start here if you are new to Oman. New to the market?
