Dubai-based ETA Star Properties plans to build a 400 million rial ($1.04 billion) development in Muscat in a joint venture with a local firm, a project official said on Monday.

"It is going to be a 50-50 percent joint venture with Oman Holding International to build the properties. The flats and villas for sale will be sold to both local and international investors," Maqbool Hameed alSaleh, OHI chairman, told newswire Reuters.

The 1,000 unit project including residential, office and retail space, would take 30 months to complete and is located in the centre of the Omani capital, he added.
