Project & escrow check

Is this project genuine, and is my money protected?

Checks a project against the Land Department register: registration, escrow account, construction progress, delivery timeline, and what else the developer has actually finished. Escrow is the mechanism that stops an off-plan payment being spent elsewhere, and this is the only tool here that tells a buyer whether one exists before they transfer money.

Registration and account numbers always stay exact.

Verification checks5 checks
  • Registered with the Dubai Land Department

    Project number 4186. Appearing in the registry is the baseline — it does not mean the project is a good investment, only that it exists officially.

  • Escrow account on file

    Buyer payments on an off-plan sale must go into this account, not to the developer directly. Confirm the account number on your contract matches the registry before transferring anything.

  • Project status

    Active and proceeding.

  • Construction progress

    Reported 1.0% complete. Early stage — your money is committed for a long time and against the least certainty.

  • Delivery timeline

    Stated completion 2029-08-31.

  • 1 of this developer's active projects are past their registered completion date. Ask what the actual handover record has been, and what your contract says about delay.
What this doesn't tell you

Registration and an escrow account are the floor, not the ceiling. This can’t tell you whether the price is fair, whether the build quality will be good, whether service charges will be reasonable, or whether the handover date is realistic. It tells you the project is real and the money is supposed to be protected. Everything else is judgement — which is what I’m for.

Where the numbers come from93% reliable

Dubai Land Department project, escrow and developer records, as synced. Transactions cover 1 Jan 2026 to 14 Aug 2026. Verification is a starting point, not a substitute for reading the contract.

93%

93% — the rest is delivery timeline, which varies by deal.

Solid for budgeting. One or two lines vary by deal — they are marked.

  • DLD project registerOfficial source 65%

    Registration status, escrow account and construction percentage come straight from the Land Department register.

  • Developer track recordYour arithmetic 20%

    Counted from the developer's other registered projects — deterministic on what the register holds.

  • Delivery timelineVaries by deal 15%

    A registered completion date is an intention, not a guarantee, and off-plan dates slip.
