Competing Supply (Potential Risk)

57 Launches

57 competing off-plan launches tracked in Dubai South — potential handover competition

SKID tracks 57 competing off-plan launches in Dubai South. While phased handovers and district demand may absorb new inventory, a concentrated pipeline increases potential competition among resale buyers at handover.

Why this matters: Future supply impact is a potential risk rather than a certainty: if multiple towers deliver in the same window, sellers may face longer marketing times or more competitive secondary resale pricing.

Handover Horizon (Potential Risk)

~3.4 Yrs (2029-09)

Estimated ~3.4-year horizon until 2029-09 target handover (~41 months)

Target completion is scheduled for 2029-09. SKID does not assume or predict developer delays, but a ~3.4-year construction window carries potential schedule and market-cycle exposure.

Why this matters: Capital committed during construction remains illiquid until handover, and multi-year timelines carry potential exposure to contractor pacing, phased delivery, and market shifts.
