## Short answer

The DLD register gives Legado by Prescott a completion date of 31 August 2027, while Prescott has given Q4 2027 since launch in September 2024. A DLD inspection on 30 September 2026 recorded the tower 23.31% complete. With about three quarters of the work left and 11 months to the registered date, both dates are under pressure.

## Key figures

- Registered completion date (DLD): 31 Aug 2027 (DLD project register via Continental Club, updated 5 Oct 2026)
- Latest construction progress: 23.31% (DLD inspection, 30 Sep 2026)
- Developer's stated date: Q4 2027 (Prescott, 9 Sep 2024)
- Progress, July to September 2026: +3.18 points (DLD inspections, 2 Jul to 30 Sep 2026)

## Legado by Prescott handover date: the latest position

The Dubai Land Department (DLD) register gives Legado by Prescott a completion date of 31 August 2027. Prescott has given Q4 2027 since the launch on 9 September 2024, and its payment plans show the handover payment due in Q4 2027. Full project details are on the [Legado by Prescott](/projects/legado-by-prescott/) page.

The latest DLD inspection, on 30 September 2026, recorded the tower 23.31% complete. Between 2 July and 30 September 2026 progress rose by 3.18 points, about 1 point a month. Finishing by Q4 2027 would need a much faster pace from here.

## Legado by Prescott handover date by building

Legado is a single 34 storey tower with 343 units in the DLD register.

| Building | Construction progress (DLD, date) | Registered completion date | Developer or portal date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Legado by Prescott | 23.31% (30 Sep 2026) | 31 Aug 2027 | Q4 2027 (Prescott); Aug 2027 (Property Finder) |

Progress and the registered date are from the DLD project register via Continental Club.

## How the Legado by Prescott handover date has changed

| Date | Event | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Sep 2024 | Registered construction start | DLD via Continental Club |
| 9 Sep 2024 | Prescott launches Legado, handover Q4 2027 | Prescott |
| Sep 2024 | Payment plan schedules the handover payment for Q4 2027 | Prescott factsheet |
| 2 Jul 2026 | DLD inspection records 20.13% | DLD via Continental Club |
| 30 Sep 2026 | DLD inspection records 23.31%; registered date 31 August 2027 | DLD via Continental Club |

The developer date has not changed. The registered date of 31 August 2027 sits one to four months before Prescott's Q4 2027. About 77% of the work remained at the end of September 2026.

## What the Legado by Prescott handover date means for payments

Construction instalments on Legado are fixed to calendar dates, not to progress. On the standard plan, buyers pay 20% on booking and 40% in seven instalments from January 2025 to February 2027, so 60% is paid before handover even if the tower is late. The remaining 40% is due on handover. On the post-handover plan, 10% is due on handover and 30% over three years after, at 2.5% a quarter (Prescott factsheet). A later handover moves only the handover and post-handover payments.

## What to check before relying on the Legado by Prescott date

1. **The completion date and grace period in the SPA**, given the gap between 31 August 2027 and Q4 2027.
2. **The calendar instalments.** The February 2027 payment falls due whatever stage the tower has reached.
3. **The start of post-handover instalments.** On the 60/10/30 plan, the three year schedule begins at handover, so a later handover also pushes back the final payment.
4. **The next DLD inspection.** At about 1 point a month, the tower would be well short of complete by late 2027; a faster figure on the next inspection would change that.
