323 projects on the site list a 2027 handover. For the 207 matched to the DLD register as of 11 November 2026: status, % built, and whether DLD's completion date is later, the same or earlier, plus the dates that moved since June.

323 off-plan projects listed on this site in November 2026 give a handover month in 2027. We matched 207 of them to the Dubai Land Department (DLD) project register as of 11 November 2026: 177 were being built, with a median of 20.8% built, 27 had not started and 3 were already finished.
This is general information, not financial or legal advice.
If you need to move in during 2027, for a school year, a visa or the end of a lease, the listed handover month is only the start. This tracker puts every listed 2027 handover next to what the DLD register says: the project's status, how far it is built, and DLD's completion date. The other 116 projects are not matched to a register entry, so for them we only have the listed month.
The figures are as of: projects listed on the site in November 2026, and the DLD register as of 11 November 2026.
Which off-plan projects hand over in 2027 in Dubai?
323 projects listed on this site in November 2026 give a 2027 handover: 65 in January to March, 74 in April to June, 58 in July to September and 126 in October to December. 116 of them list December 2027. 207 are matched to the DLD project register as of 11 November 2026.
| Listed handover | Projects | Matched to DLD | Active | Not started | Median % built (active) | DLD date later | Same month | DLD date earlier |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jan to Mar 2027 | 65 | 35 | 29 | 5 | 20.2% | 14 | 8 | 8 |
| Apr to Jun 2027 | 74 | 51 | 47 | 3 | 22.4% | 14 | 8 | 22 |
| Jul to Sep 2027 | 58 | 35 | 32 | 2 | 19.2% | 12 | 7 | 10 |
| Oct to Dec 2027 | 126 | 86 | 69 | 17 | 18.2% | 25 | 25 | 24 |
| 2027 | 323 | 207 | 177 | 27 | 20.8% | 65 | 48 | 64 |
Source: projects listed on the site in November 2026; our analysis of the DLD project register as of 11 November 2026. "Matched" includes 3 projects DLD shows as finished (one each in the first three quarters). The last three columns count only matched projects with a DLD completion date (177). The other 30 matched projects had no completion date in the register. We count 4 listings as not matched because the register entry we found for them is a different phase or has a 2020 date.
281 of the 323 listed dates fall in March, June, September or December. Months are compared as months: a listed "June 2027" and a DLD date of 30 June 2027 count as the same.
You can see all 2027 handovers in search, or only those at least 50% built by DLD's figure: 2027 handovers, 50% built or more.
How many 2027 projects are actually under construction?
177 of the 207 matched projects were active, meaning being built, in the DLD project register as of 11 November 2026. Their median was 20.8% built. 27 had not started, and 3 were already finished. In the June 2026 copy of the register, only 84 of 183 matched projects were active.
Most of the change since June comes from projects that started building. In the June register, 99 matched projects were not started or pending. By November, 27 were not started and none was pending. We also matched more listings to the register in that time (207 now, 183 then), so the two counts are not exactly the same group.
The median of 20.8% built is the middle value. With a year or less to go, many of these projects are less than a quarter built. A building can go up fast once the frame is done, but a project at 5% built in November 2026 is unlikely to be handed over in early 2027.
Three projects listed for 2027 are already finished in the register: Golf Grand (listed March 2027), Sunridge (listed June 2027) and Parkside Views (listed September 2027). The listing may be out of date. Ask the developer whether handover has started.
Which areas have the most 2027 handovers?
Dubai Islands has the most, with 43 of the 323 projects listed for 2027 in November 2026. Jumeirah Village Circle has 29 and Dubai Land Residence Complex 21. In Dubai Islands, 32 of the 35 matched projects were active in the DLD project register as of 11 November 2026.

"None" means the register had no completion date for the project. Projects listed on the site in November 2026; DLD register as of 11 November 2026. One more active project is left out of the table because the register entry we matched may be a different phase of it.
The % built is DLD's figure. The developer's own figure can differ. Ask the developer for the latest consultant progress report before you plan around a date.
Will my 2027 handover be delayed?
The register can't say for sure, but it can warn you. Of the 177 matched 2027 projects with a DLD completion date, 65 have a DLD date in a later month than the listed handover, and 31 of those are 6 months or more later. Source: the DLD project register as of 11 November 2026.
A later DLD date doesn't prove a delay. It means two dates disagree. Ask the developer which date is in your sale agreement (SPA), and why it differs from the register. In the other direction, 64 projects have a DLD date earlier than the listed handover, 48 of them by 1 to 4 months.
These are the 16 projects where DLD's date is 9 months or more after the listed handover. Another 15 are 6 to 8 months later, and 34 are 1 to 5 months later.

Have 2027 completion dates moved since June 2026?
Yes, for 12 projects. Of the 153 matched 2027 projects that had a DLD completion date in the June 2026 register, 12 had a different date in the DLD register as of 11 November 2026. All 12 moved later, by 1 to 36 months. The other 141 kept the same date.
DLD keeps only the current date. When a project gets more time, the old date is replaced. We keep our own copy of each project's registered completion date, starting with the register as of 12 June 2026, so we can see when it changes. Another 24 matched projects had no date in our June copy and have one now.

Our copies of the DLD project register as of 12 June 2026 and 11 November 2026. A move is counted when the completion date differs between the two copies.
9 of the 12 moves push the DLD date past the listed month. 3 bring it closer, and for One By Preston the two now match. Two copies five months apart can't show every move, and a project can move again before handover.
What if DLD's completion date has already passed?
5 projects listed for 2027 have a DLD completion date before 14 November 2026 in the DLD project register as of 11 November 2026. All 5 are active, from 21% to 80% built. The DLD date has probably not been updated yet, so ask the developer which date applies to your contract.

DLD register as of 11 November 2026. Projects listed on the site in November 2026.
How do I check a project's completion date with DLD?
Use the DLD Project Status Enquiry service on the DLD website, in the Dubai REST app or on WhatsApp (800 4488). Search by land number, project number or project name. DLD says the service shows the project's completion percentage and details. We checked the service page on 14 November 2026.
- Look the project up. Use Project Status Enquiry. Note the status, the % built and the completion date. Each project page on this site also shows the DLD figures we hold, with the date of our register copy.
- Compare three dates. The listed handover, the DLD date and the date in your SPA, with its grace period. See what your contract says about delays.
- Check the developer's record. See the on-time record of 19 developers.
- Know where your money sits. Payments go into the project's escrow account. See escrow and RERA.
- Leave room in your plans. If a lease, a school place or a visa depends on the date, plan for a handover later than listed.
Frequently asked questions
Is the listed handover date the date in my contract?
Not always. The listed month comes from the developer's marketing. The date that counts for you is the one in your sale and purchase agreement (SPA), plus any grace period it gives. The DLD register holds a third date. In 65 of the 177 matched 2027 projects with a DLD date, DLD's date was later than the listed month in November 2026.
Why is DLD's completion date different from the developer's?
The developer may update its marketing date and DLD's date at different times, or the project may have been given more time after the launch. DLD's register keeps only the current date. A different date is a reason to ask the developer, not proof of a delay.
What does "not started" mean in the register?
DLD has registered the project, but building had not started when the register was copied. On 11 November 2026, 27 of the matched 2027 projects were not started. A project with a 2027 handover that has not started is unlikely to finish on time.
What does "finished" mean when the listing still says 2027?
DLD marks the project as complete. Three projects listed for 2027 were finished in the November 2026 register. The listing may not have been updated. Ask the developer if handover has started and when you can collect the keys.
What happens if my 2027 handover is late?
It depends on your SPA and on Dubai law. Read do Dubai developers hand over on time? for the delay clauses in a typical SPA and what Dubai law says.
