Sobha Crest Grande, three residential towers at Sobha Hartland, received its Building Completion Certificate on 25 March 2026. Sobha said customer handovers were “scheduled to commence shortly” within the timeline it committed to under RERA, the Real Estate Regulatory Agency. No specific handover date for individual units was given in the announcement.

Due in 2026

Three projects are listed for 2026. Sobha Hartland 2 and Verde by Sobha are both listed for Q4 2026, and Sobha Reserve for around Q2 2026 on Propsearch, a quarter that has already passed without a confirmed handover. All three were named, alongside Sobha One, in Sobha’s July 2026 statement that it planned a record 6,819 handovers across five Dubai projects in 2026.

Construction progress varies within Sobha Hartland 2 itself. Its Series 1 buildings were 89.59% complete in Q1 2026, described as closest to handover, while Series 3 was only 21.06% complete at the same date.

Due from 2027

Sobha Solis, Orbis and Elwood are listed between 2027 and 2028, and were all under 10% built in Q1 2026. Sobha Central and Sobha Sanctuary are the newest launches, from May 2025 and January 2026, with first deliveries not due until 2029 at the earliest.

What to check before booking

  1. The completion date and grace period stated in the SPA for your specific project, phase and building, not the headline date for the wider community.
  2. Whether a Building Completion Certificate has been issued. Crest Grande shows what that looks like: a dated certificate followed by handovers starting.
  3. The DLD project status for your building through Dubai Land Department’s project status enquiry service.
  4. Which source you are reading. Sobha Solis alone carries two different published completion dates a year apart, so match the figure to its source and date before you rely on it.
