Wadi Hills handover date: the latest position

Wadi Hills, DLD project 4100 in Dubailand Residence Complex, has a registered completion date of 31 January 2028. HRE Development gives Q1 2028 and Property Finder lists January 2028, so the sources agree. Prices, sizes and the payment plan are on the Wadi Hills page.

The DLD inspection of 14 September 2026 recorded 7.72% progress (Continental Club, registry updated 7 October 2026). The building is a single B+G+11 block, so all 131 units share one date. Construction was registered as starting on 1 November 2025, and Sharjah Islamic Bank holds the escrow account.

The registered date has not moved. Progress rose 5.11 points between June and September 2026, about 1.5 points a month. Meeting 31 January 2028 needs about 5.6 points a month from mid-September 2026. Continental Club’s own projection at the pace of the past year runs far past 2028, though it labels this an estimate and not a developer commitment.

What the Wadi Hills handover date means for payments

The published plan is 10% down payment, 50% during construction, 10% on handover and 30% after handover (Property Finder, Binayah). Only 10% is tied to the handover date itself. The 30% post-handover balance starts after that, so a later handover pushes the end of the plan back too. On a studio at the DLD median of AED 726,000, that is AED 72,600 at handover and about AED 217,800 afterwards.

What to check before relying on the Wadi Hills date

  1. Progress at the next DLD inspection, against the 5.6 points a month needed. The last three inspections came three to four months apart.
  2. The SPA completion date and grace period, and whether the construction instalments are tied to dates or to progress milestones.
  3. The start and length of the post-handover instalments, which neither portal sets out.
