deliver

Explanation:
To answer your question, yes, you can say deliver. "Delivery of the building" is actually more common than handover, although both are possible. See examples:

The building will be delivered on schedule next month. It is the fourth office building at the award-winning five million square foot, mixed-use complex located at Route 123 and Tysons Boulevard in McLean, Fairfax County, Virginia. The project’s four (4) existing buildings, which total approximately 1.36 million square feet, have a 99.6% leased/occupancy rate.
