Azizi peaks in 2027, when 36 of its 60 tracked projects are scheduled to hand over. Reportage peaks in 2028 with 12 of 38. Published handover dates move, so read them as developer intent rather than a delivered date.

50% of the Azizi projects tracked are listed as sold out or out of stock, against 41% for Reportage. That is the share of each book no longer taking new bookings at listed prices, which reads as demand on the way in and as scarcity on the way out.
