Data source: DLD project register, 4.30% for the inspection conducted on 28-01-2025 (the app displays it as 4.3%) against 2.72% for the previous inspection on 29-08-2024. The Independent Progress Monitoring Report dated 28-01-2025 carries no percentage; it gives the Progress Status as Main Contract - Progressing, and its notes and the register fields appear here as recorded. Construction tracking against RERA inspection data runs across the full tohidfetrat.com project portfolio and is reviewed after every published cycle. Prepared on 25-09-2026, this page describes the record as of 28-01-2025, a reading then 605 days old: re-verify on Dubai REST before publishing.

Como Residences Construction Progress Summary
The January 2025 report is where the Como Residences record turns from preparation to building. Its notes field, which read NA in August, now listed four findings: main contractor assigned, building permit received, enabling works completed and foundation works progressing at site. Counted from the registered construction start of 27-09-2023, the register's 4.30% over 489 days averages 0.26 points per 30-day month, arithmetic rather than a forecast.
- Enabling works, recorded as completed on the 28-01-2025 report
- Main contractor assigned and building permit received, per the same notes
- Earlier readings of 0%, 0.01% and 2.72% between February 2023 and August 2024
- Foundation works, noted as progressing at site on 28-01-2025
- Progress Status Main Contract - Progressing, replacing Pre-Construction

Payment Linked Progress
What 4.30% Progress Means for Como Residences Buyers
By the 28-01-2025 inspection, Nakheel's launch schedule of record had dated half of the price: 20% upon booking plus 10% on each of 30-10-2023, 30-04-2024 and 30-10-2024, a total of 50% set against a register reading of 4.30%. That is recorded arithmetic, not a judgment. With the main contract running and foundations underway, four actions matter most.
Verify the escrow account
The next 10% in the launch schedule of record was dated 30-04-2025, 92 days after this reading, and a Como Residences payment belongs only in the DLD regulated escrow account held for project 2565. Como Residences escrow account verification comes before any transfer; the lookup takes about two minutes against the official DLD project record.
Reread your SPA milestone schedule
The dates and triggers that bind you sit in your sale and purchase agreement, not in the launch schedule: check whether any clause refers to the main contract or to foundation works, and read it beside the 4.30% reading of 28-01-2025. Not sure how your installments map to this reading? Send me your SPA schedule and I will map it against the recorded register readings.
Check your Oqood entry
Project 2565 had been registered since 12-04-2023 when the main contract began showing on its report. Oqood is where the DLD logs each off plan sale, so make sure your contract sits under that project number with the right unit and names before the 30-04-2025 instalment goes out.
Follow the stage label as well as the figure
January 2025 is the first report for this tower to carry a Main Contract status, so from here the stage field moves alongside the register reading. The Como Residences construction progress record lists every dated reading and stage label in order.
General framework, not legal advice: milestone definitions, notice periods, and fee obligations are set by your individual SPA and the DLD record, and both should be read directly.
Buying at 4.30%?
From this reading, an entry meant buying into a tower whose foundations were only then under way, with half of the launch schedule of record already dated and handover expected in Q3 2027. Every payment goes to the DLD-registered escrow account for project 2565, released against construction progress recorded in the DLD project register.
- Main Contract - Progressing on the 28-01-2025 report
- 95.70 points between this reading and 100%
- 50% of the launch schedule of record dated by 30-10-2024
- Built floors to look at before committing
- A shorter gap between purchase and keys
- Fewer instalments left, usually at a higher price
Unit availability is confirmed at the time of each enquiry; availability shifts between cycles.
About the Development
Como Residences Project Details
On 28-01-2025 Como Residences was a foundation-stage site with its main contractor in place, the base of the seashell-shaped tower Nakheel describes at 71 floors and 81 residences, spanning 2 bedroom apartments through a 7 bedroom duplex. Starting prices today: AED 27.00M ≈ USD 7.35M.
A buyer entering then took on the whole superstructure still to come and about two and a half years to a Q3 2027 handover, with 50% of the launch schedule of record already dated.
Como Residences by Nakheel Project GuideSite Context This Cycle
Explore Como Residences Location on Dubai Map
Plot 2692 sits at the heart of Palm Jumeirah, on a site Nakheel plans to look out on Burj Al Arab, Burj Khalifa and Ain Dubai. On 28-01-2025 the work was far below those views: the report recorded enabling works completed and foundation works progressing, and its photographs show reinforcement laid across an excavated, shored plot with low-rise homes beyond the hoarding.
Palm Jumeirah had been a lived-in island for years by January 2025, so foundation work on Como Residences went on inside an established community whose road network, beaches and utility connections were long in place. A buyer could judge the location as it stood; the variable was the building, and at 4.30% it was still at foundation level. See the project's position on the interactive Dubai real estate map.

Como Residences Construction Progress in January 2025: Frequently Asked Questions
The DLD project register records 4.30% for Como Residences at the inspection conducted on 28-01-2025, shown in the app as 4.3%, up from 2.72% on 29-08-2024. The Independent Progress Monitoring Report of the same date carries no percentage of its own, and by 25-09-2026 the reading was 605 days old, so the figure current today has to be read on Dubai REST.
On the 28-01-2025 report the Progress Status changed to Main Contract - Progressing, and the same report noted that a main contractor had been assigned and the building permit received. It is the first report for project 2565 to carry that label: the three before it read N/A (22-02-2023) and Pre-Construction - Progressing (07-11-2023 and 29-08-2024).
Yes, according to the report. The inspection notes of 28-01-2025 recorded enabling works completed and foundation works progressing at site, alongside the main contractor assignment and the building permit. Those are the report's own findings at that date; it gives no detail of the foundation design or a schedule for finishing it.
No. The 28-01-2025 report states only that a main contractor had been assigned, with no company name, and this page does not supply one. The permit line is equally brief: it records the building permit as received, without a permit number or issue date.
Slightly. The 1.58 points added over the 152 days to 28-01-2025 equal 0.31 points per 30-day month, against 0.27 over the 296 days before 29-08-2024, and the average from the registered start of 27-09-2023 stood at 0.26 over 489 days. All three are arithmetic on dated readings, not a forecast; the full run of readings is kept on the Como Residences construction updates guide.
Yes, in the launch schedule of record: 20% upon booking and 10% on each of 30-10-2023, 30-04-2024 and 30-10-2024 add up to 50%, the last of them 90 days before the 28-01-2025 reading of 4.30%. The next 10% was dated 30-04-2025. This is recorded arithmetic with no judgment attached, and a unit bought today follows its own sale and purchase agreement.
