When is the Palace Residences Creek Blue handover date?

Updated 11 October 2026 Palace Residences Creek Blue

Short answer

The registered completion date for Palace Residences Creek Blue in the DLD project register is 31 March 2029, and Emaar gives the same quarter, Q1 2029. The latest published DLD inspection, on 9 June 2026, recorded the project 20.52% complete. The date has not moved since launch in August 2024, but sources disagree on whether the project is one tower or two buildings, which matters if handover is phased.

Palace Residences Creek Blue handover date: the latest position

The Dubai Land Department (DLD) project register lists 31 March 2029 as the registered completion date for Palace Residences Creek Blue (DLD register via Continental Club, updated 9 September 2026). Emaar’s date, shown on Property Finder, is the same quarter, Q1 2029. Prices, sizes and the plan are on the project page: Palace Residences Creek Blue.

The last published DLD inspection, on 9 June 2026, recorded 20.52% progress. At that point about 22 months had passed since the recorded construction start on 1 August 2024, and about 33 months remained to the registered date.

Palace Residences Creek Blue handover date by building

Propsearch lists two buildings, Tower 1 and Tower 2, of 54 and 16 storeys, and Continental Club’s summary of the DLD register also counts two buildings. Property Finder lists one 55 storey tower. The DLD publishes one progress figure and one completion date for the whole project, number 3147.

The date has not changed since launch.

What the Palace Residences Creek Blue handover date means for payments

Under the launch plan of 10% on booking, 80% during construction and 10% on handover (Propsearch; Property Finder), most of the price is paid before completion and 10% falls due at handover. On a 1 bedroom at the DLD median of AED 2.03 million, that final payment is about AED 203,000. Continental Club shows a different split with 38% after handover, so the schedule attached to each SPA governs what is due in March 2029. Property Finder lists the project as sold out from Emaar, so new buyers come in through resales and take over the seller’s remaining instalments, including the handover payment.

What to check before relying on the Palace Residences Creek Blue date

  1. Which building the unit is in, since a 16 storey block and a 54 storey tower may not finish together.
  2. The completion date and grace period in the SPA for that unit.
  3. The seller’s paid and outstanding instalments on a resale, checked against Emaar’s statement of account for the unit.
  4. The DLD inspection due after June 2026, through the DLD project status service.
