## Short answer

Onda by Kasco has a registered completion date of 31 August 2027, and portals market it as Q3 2027. The last DLD inspection, on 19 August 2026, recorded the tower 61.1% complete. At launch in October 2024 Kasco promised Q2 2027, so the date has moved back about one quarter, but recent progress of about 3 points a month leaves the August 2027 date within reach.

## Key figures

- Registered completion date (DLD): 31 Aug 2027 (DLD register via Continental Club)
- Latest construction progress: 61.1% (DLD inspection, 19 Aug 2026)
- Developer's stated date: Q3 2027 (Kasco via MEP Middle East, 10 Jan 2025)
- Date promised at launch: Q2 2027 (Kasco, 23 Oct 2024)

## Onda by Kasco handover date: the latest position

Onda by Kasco is registered with the Dubai Land Department (DLD) for completion on 31 August 2027. Property Finder lists a delivery date of August 2027, in Q3 2027. Full project details are on the [Onda by Kasco](/projects/onda-by-kasco/) page.

The tower was 61.1% complete at the DLD inspection on 19 August 2026. Since May 2025 it has added about 3.2 points a month on average (Dubai Data), so the remaining work is roughly in line with the time left before the registered date.

## What the Onda by Kasco handover date means for payments

Onda is weighted towards handover. Most sources list 20% on booking, 10% during construction and 70% on handover, while Property Finder lists 20/20/60. One agent's schedule shows the construction instalments falling in December 2025, March 2026 and October 2026, with 60% on completion and no post-handover plan (Offplans.com). Under any version, the largest payment, 60% or 70% of the price, falls due when the building is handed over, so the handover date sets when that money is needed.

## What to check before relying on the Onda by Kasco date

1. **The completion date in the SPA.** Buyers from the October 2024 launch may hold contracts referring to Q2 2027 rather than 31 August 2027.
2. **The grace period in the SPA**, which sets how long after the contract date handover can slip before the buyer has any remedy.
3. **The bank's timeline for a handover mortgage**, since 60% to 70% of the price is due when the building completes.
