Forty-five minutes southeast of Muscat, a resort community built around a 117-berth marina, a golf course, and 5.5 kilometres of coastline has become one of Oman's most established freehold destinations for foreign buyers.

That does not mean every property or every buyer profile...

Oman has quietly become one of the most accessible property markets in the Gulf: foreigners can buy freehold in designated Integrated Tourism Complexes (ITCs), there is no annual property tax and no capital gains tax, and a purchase of OMR 200,000 (about $520,000) or more qualifies for a renewable 10-year residency. But what does your money...
