## Short answer

The Willows Residences has a registered completion date of 30 June 2027, while agents marketed Q1 2027. The only DLD inspection on record, on 14 April 2026, recorded the building 0.74% complete, about six months after the registered construction start. With almost all the building still to be built at that point, the June 2027 date depends on progress that no inspection has yet confirmed.

## Key figures

- Registered completion date (DLD): 30 Jun 2027 (DLD project register via Continental Club and Mitchells)
- Latest construction progress: 0.74% (DLD inspection, 14 Apr 2026)
- Marketed handover: Q1 2027 (Palmera, Proprain, accessed 11 Oct 2026)
- Registered construction start: 1 Oct 2025 (DLD register)

## The Willows Residences handover date: the latest position

The Willows Residences is registered with the Dubai Land Department (DLD) for completion on 30 June 2027. Property Finder lists June 2027, while agents such as Palmera and Proprain market a Q1 2027 handover. Full project details are on [The Willows Residences](/projects/the-willows-residences/) page.

The building was 0.74% complete at the DLD inspection on 14 April 2026. That is the only inspection figure on record, and none had been added by the registry update of 4 October 2026. The developer, SCC Vertex Development, has not published its own construction update.

## The Willows Residences handover date by building

The Willows Residences is a single six storey building with a basement, DLD project 3571, with 56 registered homes in MBR City District 11.

| Building | Construction progress (DLD, date) | Registered completion date | Developer or portal date |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Willows Residences | 0.74% (14 Apr 2026) | 30 Jun 2027 | June 2027 (Property Finder); Q1 2027 (Palmera, Proprain, OffPlanIndex) |

## How The Willows Residences handover date has changed

| Date | What happened | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Agents market Q1 2027, within 24 months | Proprain; Palmera |
| 1 Oct 2025 | Registered construction start | DLD register |
| 14 Apr 2026 | First DLD inspection: 0.74% complete | DLD register via Continental Club |
| 4 Oct 2026 | Registry update: no new inspection, completion date still 30 Jun 2027 | DLD register via Mitchells |

The registered date has not changed in the public record. The gap is between the Q1 2027 marketing date and the 30 June 2027 registered date, and between both dates and the April 2026 progress figure. For a six storey building, 14 months from April 2026 is a short window, so the next inspection figure is the main thing to watch.

## What The Willows Residences handover date means for payments

The share due at handover depends on which plan was sold. Property Finder lists 20% at booking, 20% during construction in four instalments and 60% on handover. Proprain lists 50% on handover. OffPlanIndex lists 65% on handover on a standard plan, or 10% on handover with 40% spread over 36 months after it. Palmera lists 20% on handover and 30% after it. For a 1 bedroom at AED 1.23 million, 60% is about AED 738,000 at completion. If completion slips, a larger handover payment simply falls due later, while any post-handover instalments start later too.

## What to check before relying on The Willows Residences date

1. **The completion date and grace period in the SPA**, since marketing used Q1 2027 and the register uses 30 June 2027.
2. **The current inspection figure** on the DLD project status service for project 3571, as the public figure dates from April 2026.
3. **Which payment plan the SPA uses**, because the handover share ranges from 10% to 65% across published plans.
