About 79 points of work remained with 13 and a half months to go, so the next inspections will show whether the date holds. ## Key figures - Registered completion date (DLD): 15 Aug 2027 (DLD project register via Continental Club, accessed 11 Oct 2026) - Latest construction progress: 20.73% (DLD inspection, 30 Jun 2026) - Developer's stated date: Q3 2027 (SOL Properties and Fairmont, PR Newswire, 5 Jul 2024) - Portal estimates: Q3 to Q4 2027 (Prop971; Dubai Asset; OffplanIndex, accessed Oct 2026) ## Solara Tower handover date: the latest position Solara Tower is registered to complete on 15 August 2027, and SOL Properties' date since launch has been Q3 2027. The DLD inspection on 30 June 2026 recorded the tower at 20.73% complete. Prices and plans are on the [Solara Tower](/projects/solara/) page. The registered date and the launch promise agree. The open question is pace: about 79 points of work remained at the end of June 2026, with 13 and a half months to the registered date. ## Solara Tower handover date by building Solara Tower is a single 55 storey tower: four basements, ground, mezzanine, three podium levels and 51 floors on the DLD filing. | Building | Construction progress (DLD, date) | Registered completion date | Developer or portal date | |---|---|---|---| | Solara Tower Dubai (231 units, project 2928) | 20.73%, 30 Jun 2026 | 15 Aug 2027 | Q3 2027 (SOL at launch; Prop971); Sep 2027 (Dubai Asset); Q4 2027 (OffplanIndex, Dubainary) | DLD figures are from Continental Club, Mitchell's and fäm Properties, which republish the DLD project register. Mitchell's counts 247 homes against 231 units in Continental Club's copy of the register. ## How the Solara Tower handover date has changed | Date | What happened | Source | |---|---|---| | 5 Jul 2024 | SOL Properties and Fairmont launch the tower, "scheduled for completion by Q3 of 2027". | PR Newswire | | 1 Aug 2024 | Construction starts on the DLD register. | DLD register, via Mitchell's | | 12 Aug 2024 | Project registered with completion on 15 August 2027. | DLD register, via Dubai Data | | Apr to Jul 2025 | First DLD sales registered; Q2 2025 median AED 3,070 per sq ft. | Mitchell's | | 15 Mar 2026 | Agent page gives September 2027. | Dubai Asset | | 30 Jun 2026 | 20.73% complete. | DLD inspection, via Continental Club | No change to the registered date appears in these sources. Portal dates differ by up to a quarter, from Q3 2027 to Q4 2027. ## What the Solara Tower handover date means for payments The 60/40 plan leaves 40% of the price due on handover. The other 60% is paid in the first 24 months after booking: 5% on booking, 15% by SPA signing and four 10% instalments at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months (Tanami Properties). Construction payments are therefore tied to the booking date, not to progress, while the final 40% waits for completion. On the median DLD sale of AED 7.57 million, that handover payment is about AED 3.03 million. ## What to check before relying on the Solara Tower date 1. **The completion date and grace period in the SPA**, and whether it uses 15 August 2027 or a later portal date. 2. **Progress after 30 June 2026**, through DLD's project status enquiry for project 2928. 3. **Funding for the 40% handover payment**, which is large on a Downtown unit and falls due on completion. ## Frequently asked ### When will Solara Tower be ready?
