Westwood by Imtiaz handover date by building
Westwood is one DLD project, number 2431, with one building of two basements, ground, a podium level, 10 floors and a roof.
| Building | Construction progress (DLD) | Registered completion date | Developer or portal date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Westwood by Imtiaz (188 homes) | 100%, inspection 27 Nov 2023 | 27 Nov 2023 | Q4 2023, handover completed (Imtiaz); 1 Dec 2023 (Property Finder) |
The register lists 188 homes, the same count Propsearch gives. Data Habibi gives 198. Westwood is a different building from Westwood Grande and Westwood Grande II, separate Imtiaz projects in JVC. Westwood Grande was handed over in October 2024, almost a year after Westwood.
How the Westwood by Imtiaz handover date has changed
Westwood took almost six years from the registered start to completion, but there is no record of a published target that was missed. The dates Imtiaz and the portals carried in 2023 all pointed to the end of November or early December 2023.

What the Westwood by Imtiaz handover date means for payments
Westwood was sold with a post-handover plan, so handover did not end every buyer’s payments. Data Habibi records the launch plan as 10% deposit, 30% during construction, 15% on handover and 45% after handover, spread over three years. For an original buyer on that plan, the handover payment fell due in November 2023 and the last post-handover instalments run to about November 2026. Imtiaz’s own page does not publish the schedule and says payment terms now depend on the unit and agreement.
What to check when buying a resale unit at Westwood by Imtiaz
- Whether post-handover instalments are still owed to Imtiaz. A seller who bought on the launch plan may still be paying the final part of the 45%, which has to be cleared or transferred at sale.
- The building name on the title deed. It should read Westwood by Imtiaz in Al Furjan, project 2431, not Westwood Grande in JVC.
- The price history behind a listing. DLD records for Westwood include very low gift and transfer entries alongside true sales, so recent studio sales between AED 670,000 and AED 820,000 are the useful comparison.
- The service charge record since November 2023, since the building has run for nearly three years.

When was Westwood by Imtiaz handed over?
In November 2023. The DLD register gives 27 November 2023 as the registered completion date and recorded the building 100% complete that day. Imtiaz's project page says handover was completed in Q4 2023.
What is the Westwood by Imtiaz completion date?
27 November 2023, per the DLD register (project 2431). Property Finder lists an expected completion of 1 December 2023 and Data Habibi a target of 30 November 2023, so the building finished just ahead of both.
Is Westwood by Imtiaz in Al Furjan or JVC?
Al Furjan. The DLD register places project 2431 in the Al Furjan master community, in the Jabal Ali First area. The text on Imtiaz's own project page says Jumeirah Village Circle, which does not match the register or Imtiaz's own community listing.
Are there still payments due to Imtiaz on Westwood units?
Possibly, for original buyers. Data Habibi records a launch plan of 10% deposit, 30% during construction, 15% on handover and 45% after handover over three years. Counted from the November 2023 handover, that schedule runs to about November 2026.
