Grandala Construction Progress Summary
Ninety-six days after the June visit, the inspection of 23 September 2025 recorded mobilization ongoing, enabling works completed, and foundation and structural works progressing, while the DLD register reading for the same date moved from 15.25% to 20.36%. Measured over that span, the register gained ground faster than in the opening stretch from the May 2024 baseline.

Payment Linked Progress
What 20.36% Progress Meant for Grandala Buyers
Stage-linked installments in Dubai off plan contracts are often tied to named structural works, such as foundations or the frame, which makes the exact wording of each inspection note relevant to a buyer. Grandala's construction-linked plan of record sets 20% plus the 4% DLD registration fee on booking, 40% during construction and 40% on handover, and at this reading the construction share was the one running against foundation and frame works like those the note recorded as progressing; your own SPA decides which recorded works trigger which payment, while current terms on the remaining units are settled with the developer at reservation. At 20.36%, four actions mattered most.
Check the escrow account for project 3046
A payment linked to foundation or structural works after this reading belonged only in the DLD regulated escrow account registered for project 3046. Grandala escrow account verification should precede every such transfer; the lookup itself takes about two minutes against the official DLD project record.
Read how your SPA defines each milestone
Check whether your sale and purchase agreement defines milestones by named works, such as foundation or structure completion, or by a register percentage, because the September 2025 note recorded foundation and structural works as progressing. Not sure how your installments map to this reading? Send me your SPA schedule and I will map it against the recorded milestones.
Note when the snagging window opens
At 20.36%, with structural works still in progress, the pre handover check of a furnished Grandala unit lay more than a year beyond this inspection. The Grandala snagging inspection guide covers how that window is timed against handover.
Set each reading against the measured spans
Two dated spans now exist: about 1.13 points per 30-day month up to June 2025 and about 1.60 from June to September 2025. The Grandala construction updates hub lines up every later reading against them.
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.
What a 20.36% Entry Looked Like
In September 2025 Grandala had its enabling works recorded as completed and its foundation and structural works under way: a buyer committing then still took on most of the build, with two measured spans of register progress to judge it by. Every payment goes to the DLD-registered escrow account for project 3046, released against construction progress recorded in the DLD register.
- Enabling works completed per the 23 September 2025 inspection note
- Foundation and structural works progressing at that visit
- Roughly 12 to 15 months to the Q4 2026 expected handover window
- An unbuilt plot, with no register reading yet to check
- The full build period still ahead before keys
- First pick of floors, views and layouts

About the Development
Grandala Project Details
In September 2025 Grandala was a foundation and structure site: enabling works recorded complete, with structural works progressing on a Ground + 2 Podium + 8 Floors + Roof building of 86 residences, the first project of Palladium Developments. Current starting price: AED 1.16M ≈ USD 316K.
For a buyer at that point, the trade off was more than a year of building still ahead in exchange for a position backed by two measured spans of register progress, with handover expected in Q4 2026.
Grandala at Jumeirah Garden City Project GuideSite Context This Cycle
Explore Grandala Location on Dubai Map
Grandala occupies a compact plot on a Jumeirah Garden City street just off Sheikh Zayed Road, across the road from Satwa Park on the developer's account, with finished buildings on either side. In September 2025 that meant formwork, reinforcement and lifting all ran inside site hoarding on a tight urban frontage, with the high-rise skyline close behind the upper deck.
The district around the plot was already complete and connected: on the developer's figures the Museum of the Future and DIFC were about five minutes away on foot and City Walk about five minutes by car, so for a September 2025 buyer the variable that mattered was the building's own progress rather than any infrastructure still to arrive nearby.

Grandala at Jumeirah Garden City Construction Progress in September 2025: Frequently Asked Questions
The DLD project register recorded 20.36% for Grandala at the RERA inspection on 23 September 2025, with the previous inspection shown at 15.25%. The inspection report from that visit gives no figure of its own, only a progress bar graphic and the Progress Status Main Contract - Progressing.
The register reading rose from 15.25% on 19 June 2025 to 20.36% on 23 September 2025, a gain of 5.11 points over 96 days. That is about 1.60 points per 30-day month, compared with about 1.13 over the earlier span from the 09 May 2024 baseline; both figures are arithmetic on dated readings, not forecasts.
The inspector recorded on 23 September 2025: "At the time of the site inspection, mobilization ongoing, enabling works completed, foundation and structural works progressing." The previous note, dated 19 June 2025, read: "At the time of inspection found; mobilization ongoing. Substructure works completed. Superstructure and block work are in progress. Building MEP Services are in progress." Each note is quoted exactly as recorded on its own date.
The RERA report for the 23 September 2025 visit showed the building several floors up behind scaffolding and site hoarding with a tower crane above it, column reinforcement and formwork on an upper deck, and an enclosed floor with block walls and stacked props. The DLD register lists six inspection photographs for that visit; they belong to the register record and are not reproduced here.
At 23 September 2025, 79.64 percentage points separated the 20.36% register reading from handover readiness, with handover expected in Q4 2026. Both measured spans so far, about 1.13 and 1.60 points per 30-day month, covered ground, foundation and early structural works, so neither was a dependable guide to the pace of the frame, envelope and fit out stages that followed.
No. The header image is project imagery of Grandala; it is not a photograph of the site and does not record progress at the 23 September 2025 inspection. The dated site images from that visit are the inspection photographs held with the RERA and DLD register record.
The 20.36% reading dates from the 23 September 2025 inspection and was 373 days old when this page was prepared on 01 October 2026. The following reading is covered in the Grandala January 2026 construction update, and the live figure for DLD project 3046 should be confirmed on Dubai REST or on the Grandala construction updates hub.
