## Short answer

Raw District 2 by Imtiaz has a registered completion date of 1 December 2029 in the Dubai Land Department (DLD) register, while broker launch material gives Q2 2029 and Continental Club records the developer date as Q4 2029. The DLD inspection on 8 July 2026 recorded 0%, and construction is registered to start on 1 December 2026. The project sold out on its launch day in July 2026, so the gap between Q2 2029 and December 2029 matters to every buyer's SPA.

## Raw District 2 by Imtiaz handover date by building

Imtiaz describes Raw District 2 as one development with homes, offices and shops. It is registered as a single DLD project.

| Building | Construction progress (DLD, date) | Registered completion date | Developer or portal date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Raw District 2 by Imtiaz (741 units) | 0%, 8 Jul 2026 | 1 Dec 2029 | Q2 2029 (Inside Realty; Mira International); Q4 2029 (Continental Club) |

The first Raw District building next door is a separate DLD project and is not covered by these dates.

## How the Raw District 2 by Imtiaz handover date has changed

The project is new, so the history is short.

| Date | What happened | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Jun 2026 | The first Raw District sells out on launch day, at about AED 2 billion. | Cresco Real Estate; Imtiaz |
| 8 Jul 2026 | First DLD inspection records 0%. Registered completion date 1 December 2029. | DLD register via Continental Club |
| Jul 2026 | Imtiaz launches Raw District 2 and announces a launch-day sell-out at AED 1.5 billion (confirmed 27 July, per Cresco). Launch material gives Q2 2029. | Imtiaz; Cresco Real Estate; Inside Realty |
| Early Oct 2026 | 317 sales registered with the DLD, all from the developer. | DLD register via Continental Club |
| 1 Dec 2026 | Registered construction start. | DLD register via Continental Club |

The registered completion date is two quarters later than the Q2 2029 date used in launch brochures and in payment plans that show the final instalment in Q2 2029.

## What the Raw District 2 by Imtiaz handover date means for payments

On the 50/50 plan, half the price falls due on handover: AED 333,000 on a studio at the AED 666,000 launch price, or about AED 365,700 on the median registered studio price of AED 731,416. On the 60/40 plan, 5% is due on handover and 40% is paid quarterly over three years after it, at about 3.3% a quarter (Mira International; OffplanIndex).

Under the 60/40 plan, payments would run to about mid-2032 if handover comes in Q2 2029, or to late 2032 on the registered date. Mira International's schedule shows the first construction instalment on 15 November 2026, before the registered construction start.

## What to check before relying on the Raw District 2 by Imtiaz date

1. **The exact completion date in the SPA**, since Q2 2029, Q4 2029 and 1 December 2029 all appear in sources.
2. **Whether the first DLD inspection after 1 December 2026** shows work under way, as the first sign the schedule is holding.
3. **The grace period in the SPA**, measured from the SPA date rather than the DLD date.
4. **For post-handover buyers, the quarter the 40% starts**, which moves with the handover date.
