Will Dubai’s off-plan projects finish on time?

Each developer’s whole register, apartments and villas, as on its own page. The registered developer is often the master developer of the land, not the builder of the tower.

The top 20 of 1,444, from 250,317 registered launch sales (2004–2026) and 25,285 resales in the last 12 months. A top row is an outlier by construction.

How many Dubai off-plan apartment projects are past their completion date?

141 of 852 live off-plan apartment projects with a registered completion date (17%) are past it, measured against the Land Department register’s own date. 138 live projects carry no registered date. A date on file is the developer’s own promise, not a delivery forecast. Register dated 2026-07-06.

Which Dubai areas have the most off-plan projects past their date?

Of the eight areas with the most live projects, Business Bay has the largest share past its registered date (33%, 10 of 30) and Dubailand Residence Complex the smallest (3%, 2 of 65). Register dated 2026-07-06.

Does the register show whether completed projects were delivered on time?

Not reliably. 790 of 1,161 recorded completions in this cohort carry a completion date identical to the registered date, to the day: the register writes one onto the other, so no slippage is observable. That is why this page measures live projects past their date rather than an on-time rate. Register dated 2026-07-06.

Which registered developer has the most live off-plan projects?

Azizi Developments, with 47 live projects; 24% of its 42 dated live projects are past their registered date. The registered developer is often the master developer of the land, not the builder of the tower. Register dated 2026-07-06.
