The World Islands off-plan handing over in 2027: 6 projects
6 of the 10 off-plan projects in The World Islands, Dubai, are scheduled to hand over in 2027: 60% of the community. By quarter: Q1 3, Q2 2, Q4 1. The median starting price is AED 44,750,000, and the middle half of them start between AED 3.05M and AED 44.8M. The median project asks AED 2,366 per sqft, across 3 projects with priced units.
2 of the 6 projects stating a sale status are not marked sold out at the last observation. A handover year is the developer's published target, not a certificate of completion, and the date moves often: read it as when the keys are promised.

A project is in this list when its developer publishes a delivery date in 2027 and it is still off-plan: a project already marked delivered is not counted. AED/sqft is the project's own median over its priced unit records, and priced units is how many of those records it carries. Every project landing in 2027 is listed, including the 3 with no priced units and the 1 with no published starting price.
