Egyptian developer behind Wadi Zaha, a freehold community in Sultan Haitham City, Muscat.

Al Ahly Sabbour

Al Ahly Sabbour Developments was founded in Egypt in 1994 by Eng. Ahmed Sabbour, as a joint-stock company formed in alliance with the National Bank of Egypt. It grew out of a family engineering practice, Sabbour Engineering Consulting, set up by Eng. Hussein Sabbour in 1988. The group counts 65 projects across Egypt and more than 10,000 delivered homes, and now works in the Gulf and southern Europe as well. In Oman it trades as Al Ahly for Real Estate Sabbour LLC, with an office in Al Azaiba, Muscat, and is building Wadi Zaha, a freehold community in Sultan Haitham City.

THE TRACK RECORD

Al Ahly Sabbour's record.

The Sabbour family has worked in property and engineering for more than three decades: Eng. Hussein Sabbour founded Sabbour Engineering Consulting in 1988, and Eng. Ahmed Sabbour, the chairman, launched Al Ahly Sabbour Developments in 1994. Beyond Egypt the group is present in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Spain, Cyprus and Greece.

Delivery record

At home in Egypt the group lists 65 projects, 20,893 units in total and 10,308 already delivered, with about 40,000 residents and owners living in its communities.

Financial strength

Al Ahly Sabbour was set up as a joint-stock company in alliance with the National Bank of Egypt and holds a land bank of about 4,000 feddans in Egypt. In Oman, buyers' payments for Wadi Zaha go into the project's own escrow account at Sohar Islamic, opened in February 2025.

Signature style

Al Ahly Sabbour builds complete neighbourhoods rather than single towers. Wadi Zaha shows the approach: a master plan by SOM, mid-rise buildings of ground plus six floors set around inner courts and the city's Central Park, villas and townhouses on quieter streets, and shops and cafés on the ground floors so daily errands stay on foot.

THE HONEST VIEW

Strengths & considerations.

Where Al Ahly Sabbour shines
  • Freehold ownership in Sultan Haitham City, Oman's new government-led city on Muscat's western edge
  • A long payment plan: 5% on booking, 15% a month later, then the balance in 59 monthly instalments, so the payments run on after handover
  • Buyers' payments go into a dedicated escrow account for Wadi Zaha at Sohar Islamic, opened in February 2025
  • A large developer behind it: 65 projects and more than 10,000 delivered homes in Egypt since 1994
  • A wide choice in one place, from one-bedroom apartments to penthouses with private pools, plus shops for investors who want a retail unit
Worth considering
  • Wadi Zaha is off-plan: delivery is 3 to 4 years from purchase depending on the building
  • Sultan Haitham City is a new city still being built, so its rental and resale market is only starting to form
  • Most of Al Ahly Sabbour's delivered track record is in Egypt; its Oman community is still under construction

How does the Wadi Zaha payment plan work?+

The buyer pays 5% on booking and 15% a month later. The remaining 80% is split into 59 monthly instalments of about 1.36% each, so the plan runs for five years and continues after the 3 to 4 years it takes to deliver the buildings.

Is my money protected while Wadi Zaha is being built?+

Payments for Wadi Zaha go into the project's escrow account at Sohar Islamic, opened in February 2025 under escrow agreement no. 2025/5, rather than into the developer's general account. The account details are shown on the Wadi Zaha project page.
