The coarser cut, and the one most people search for. Al Seeb is its own wilayat but sits inside Muscat Governorate, so treat the two Muscat rows together when you compare against another country.

Apartments dominate the freehold inventory; villas trade at a lower rate per metre but a higher ticket.
| Type | Units | Median OMR / m² | Range OMR / m² | Median price | From | Typical size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Smaller homes cost more per square metre almost everywhere, because the fixed cost of a kitchen and a bathroom is spread over less floor area.

† Fewer than five eligible observations for price per square metre. The unit column includes plot-dominant homes; the download separates the two counts.
The source is Irfan Investment Group’s available inventory with a positive asking price and published total area: 449 homes in 12 developments and 6 communities, as observed on 2026-10-21. It is a sample of our listings, not all homes for sale in Oman.
We divide each eligible home’s asking price by its published total area and take the median of those individual ratios. The headline uses 437 observations. This is not the median price divided by the median area. Larger projects can influence even a median because each home is one observation.
The 12 plot-dominant homes remain in total-price and unit counts but are excluded from price-per-square-metre calculations. Homes without a positive price or total area are excluded entirely. The download reports both sample sizes for every group.
Asking prices are not completed-sale prices and exclude transaction costs, furnishing and service charges. The inventory is not filtered by a verified legal ownership category; eligibility must be checked for each property and buyer. Changes in the mix of listings can move the median without any home changing price.
You may quote and link to this index with attribution. Include the observation date, the eligible sample size and the portfolio scope. It does not establish ownership eligibility or market-wide price growth.

Download the live aggregates as JSON or CSV. Both include the observation time, scope, method and separate sample counts. Data can change after a page was loaded.
Compare like-for-like homes using the community, development, property-type and bedroom tables. Location, size, specification and the mix of available listings can all affect the observed differences. This sample cannot isolate the effect of one factor.
Read price per square metre alongside the total asking price, area and sample size. A low unit count is a weak basis for a broad conclusion. This snapshot does not measure rental returns, transaction prices or price growth over time.
The current portfolio median is shown above. It uses eligible homes with positive asking prices and area data, excluding plot-dominant homes from the per-square-metre calculation. Use the community tables and their sample sizes; the figure is not a national average.
The community table is sorted by the observed median asking price per square metre. Read the current table rather than assuming an area always ranks first. The ordering can change when the available inventory changes.
No. It is a portfolio index calculated from Irfan Investment Group’s own available listings. It is not an official national statistic or a record of completed transactions.
It is recalculated from the live inventory database every time the page is loaded, and the static version of the page is rebuilt with the site. A unit that is reserved or sold leaves the index on its own, with no manual step, so the figures track our actual availability rather than a periodic snapshot.
No. These are developer list prices for the home itself, before negotiation. Registration and transaction costs, furniture, and annual service or community charges are all additional, and they vary by development. Ask us for the full cost breakdown on any unit before you budget against these figures.
A listing in this dataset does not by itself establish a buyer’s right to purchase or obtain residency. Confirm the project’s ownership designation, the specific unit and the buyer’s eligibility with the developer and the relevant authorities before committing.
Every unit in this index is a real home you can view, with a floor plan, a payment plan and a reference number. Browse the live inventory or ask us for the breakdown for a specific community.
