Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about handover and DLP management in Dubai. For anything else, contact KAIZEN or schedule a free consultation.
What is property handover in Dubai?
Property handover in Dubai is the formal transfer of a completed unit from the developer to the owner, covering inspection, snagging, documentation, and key release. KAIZEN manages the full journey from pre-handover readiness through owner orientation to documentation close, so buyers move in with confidence.
What is snagging in a new property?
Snagging is the inspection that identifies defects and unfinished work in a newly built unit before the owner accepts it. KAIZEN inspects each unit, logs every snag, and tracks it through to resolution, so issues are fixed before or during the Defects Liability Period rather than left to the owner.
What is the Defects Liability Period in Dubai?
The Defects Liability Period is the window after handover, commonly around 12 months, during which the developer must fix defects at no cost to the owner. KAIZEN manages the DLP process, tracking and closing unresolved items on the owner’s behalf, so nothing gets missed.
How does the handover process work for developers?
For developers, KAIZEN runs a structured three-stage process: pre-handover readiness, the owner handover experience, and post-handover control. It coordinates developer, contractor, owner, and end user, so every requirement is documented and tracked and each handover reflects well on the project.
What happens if defects are found after handover?
Defects found after handover are logged and raised with the developer or contractor for repair under the Defects Liability Period. KAIZEN tracks each item to closure and keeps a clear record throughout, so owners get issues fixed without chasing anyone themselves.
Does KAIZEN handle handover for owners or only developers?
KAIZEN provides handover services mainly for developers across their projects, while managing the end-user experience for the owners receiving those units. That means both sides of the handover, the developer and the buyer, are handled professionally by one team.
