AVA at Palm Jumeirah Construction Update - August 2026

The RERA inspection of 26 August 2026 recorded AVA at Palm Jumeirah, DLD project 2382, at 95.93% construction progress, with the project status still Active. The DLD inspection card gives the previous reading as 91.02%, the figure filed on 18 June 2026, which puts the gain at 4.91 points and leaves 4.07 points before the record reaches 100%.

It lapsed without the building reaching 100%. The 26 August 2026 inspection took place 57 days after that date, and the DLD register still listed project 2382 as Active at 95.93% with 30 June 2026 as the completion date and no revised date registered. The scheduled handover for AVA is Q2 2026, and a revised completion date, if one is filed, appears in the DLD project record before anywhere else. Every AVA reading in date order is listed on the AVA at Palm Jumeirah construction updates hub.

Internal works. The Independent Progress Monitoring Report dated 26 August 2026 states: "Enabling, foundation, structure and internal works were completed. External envelope, MEP, internal finishes, and external works are progressing at different stages at the site." The 18 June 2026 report still listed internal works as progressing, so the open items narrowed to four packages: the external envelope, MEP systems, internal finishes, and external works.

It was slower. AVA added 4.91 points over the 69 days from 18 June to 26 August 2026, about 2.13 points per 30 day month, against about 3.02 points per month between 27 February and 18 June 2026. Across the full 180 days since February the average is about 2.68 points per month. These are past measurements only: the DLD record gives no reason for the change and no date for the last 4.07 points.

Yes. At 95.93% on 26 August 2026 the register still listed AVA as Active, so handover and the buyer's own pre handover inspection both lie ahead. With internal works recorded as completed, the residences are closer to their delivered state than at any earlier reading, which makes the weeks before the handover notice the practical time to line up an inspection of the glazing, private terrace pools, smart home systems, and, for the upper levels, the duplex and penthouse layouts.

No. It is a project rendering prepared for the August 2026 update and does not show the state of the site. The site evidence for this reading is the set of 11 inspection photographs the DLD app lists against the 26 August 2026 report for project 2382, a larger set than the 7 filed in June; they sit with an Independent Progress Monitoring Report marked "Independently inspected and progress audited for RERA" and are viewable in the DLD app rather than reproduced on this page.
