Phase 9 commercial

Hi experts !

What is the timeline for zone 1 commercial phase 9 possession ?

When can rental return be expected ?

Thank you

Nasir replied on Monday, March 11, 2019 12:21 PM PST

End 2020

baba g replied on Monday, March 11, 2019 12:46 PM PST

Good question!!

let us say that possession is given in 2020, So people start building their houses from 2021 to 2026, you can see at least it takes 5-8 years to have enough (30-50) % population in any DHA lhr phase. then it will take to build your plaza and and 1 year to get good tenants.so rental income starts.

I may be mistaken with my estimates , if someone has better answer please share.

Mir replied on Monday, March 11, 2019 01:30 PM PST

To be honest, expect to rent near the year 2030.

KSA Banker� replied on Monday, March 11, 2019 02:11 PM PST

Dear Friends, I have a similar question. I visited the DHA-9 town and Prism during my last visit to Pakistan in December 2018. I entered from Bedian Road and exited from the point near Ashiana. I saw the boulevard of DHA-9 town as an extension and part of the boulevard of Prism. The CZ-1 in Prism is barely 10 minutes walk from CCA of DHA-9 town and both are on the same boulevard. Now, if we see the prices indicated from time to time by LRE or other sources, we can see that an 8-marla on ground main boulevard possession plot in CCA of DHA-9 town can be probably purchased today for around PKR 70-75 million. DHA-9 town is getting populated quite rapidly and in another couple of years time, there may be enough population in DHA-9 Town to support development of commercial space in the CCA of DHA-9 Town. So investors purchasing those plots may be able to start generating decent rental income in a couple of years and it may only improve once next door neighbor (i.e. Prism) gets possession and starts getting populated.

On the other hand, the prices estimated for 8-marla main boulevard commercials of CZ-1 in Prism are indicated to be around PKR 90-100 million. As so rightly pointed out by some forum members above, those commercials will probably not generate any rental income for another 10 years. So in light of this price disparity, timing of maturity, and location on the same continuous boulevard, does it make sense to go for commercials in Prism today compared to CCA of DHA-9 town? It is just an open question for input from all respected members of this discussion forum as I may be missing some points being an expatriate and living far from the place only occasionally visiting.

Looking forward to your kind input.

Best Regards

2030 seems like the right time for rental yield and return. Expect prices to decline massively in commercial plots in next few years.

Junaid Khan replied on Tuesday, March 12, 2019 08:25 PM PST

Correction phase has begun since long. Over supply of DHA properties and less real buyers or investor will keep price under control for foreseeable future. I daily pass through Phase 8 and there is little house construction activities going on. One can see far way the constructed roads, plots and blue colour transformers and DBs. It will take at least 5 years more to get some population in Phase-8. Commercial activities will lag 2- 3 years more. For Phase-9 it is beyond 2030. Stay calm and use this money somewhere else. You will not get return on the invested money from rent only.

Property prices are continuously falling in Lahore Bahria town 10 marla plots are available for 40-50 lacs. Prices were nearly double of this value about 2 years before.
Overseas Pakistanis were investing in property and specially in DHA because it was safe and sound investment giving them good returns.
It is time now to switch to other modes of investment rather than property.

PAK Overseas in KSA replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 02:59 AM PST

Dear Irfan Sb

Can u quote any plot bahria town 10marla in 40--50 lack.
I need this.
Thanks for ur advise.

Friend replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 09:44 AM PST

Orchard 4 at Bahria Town Lahore is around 40 K to 50 K now for 10 Marlas and also on installments. Those are now on ground possession plots.

Friend Of Jaranwala replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 09:46 AM PST

Also we should not forget State Life 2 where 1 Kanal is still under 30K. I understand that it is file but one should not forgot that State Life 2 is one of the most prime location (DHA all around) and also right at the ring road.

2018 is the year of 2018, whatever mess is going on over there for a decade now, 2018 would be full stop to those and it would sky rocket over the night!

!!!! MARK MY WORDS !!!!

dxb replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 12:16 PM PST

it is excellent opportunity for people living in Pakistan to purchase since prices are lower ..... many new entrants will purchase homes/ plots/ commercial .... these will be genuine buyers thus moving the communities forward

Habib replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 12:36 PM PST

short term investors should look for other options . And Long term investors wait more as prices still did not hit the lowest.

Junaid Khan replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 01:48 PM PST

Property prices are falling and will keep on falling at the same rate in coming year or so. In Pakistan real estate prices jumps with pouring in of black money and investments by speculative foreign groups. Now with USA pulling back its support to Pakistan and US aid which used to remain within few circles and international scenario changing property prices will remain in check for quite long period until something extra ordinary happens. Moreover there are abundance of plots and real estate options. A decade back there used to be only few societies other than DHA and Bahria having good development standards but now there are plenty of options for common persons. So guys its a changing time for Pakistan and new avenues for investments to be explored and worked out. Not good for real estate investors but overall a good omen for the nation as real estate is a dead investment without generating means of living for common man.

Saleem Khan replied on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 06:49 PM PST

40-50 K for 10 marla at Orchard sounds like a good buy. How are the prices for 10 marla possession plot in proper Bahria these days?

Faheem Ansari replied on Wednesday, January 10, 2018 12:03 AM PST

Where in bahria town 10 marla between 40 to 50??

Guidance on Stone Crush

Dear Experts,

I need your guidance on use of crush for house construction/grey work. What are the benefits of using Margalla Crush over Sargodha Crush and what is the difference in rate. What will be the effects on structure strength and salts/mositure on walls and rooms if Sargodha crush is used.
Thanks in advance on advice.

Waseem� replied on Saturday, July 8, 2017 11:15 PM PST

Margalla rate is around 80 i guess, before Eid it was around 70. Sargodha is 58. Margalla absorbs less water has more strength than Sargodha. If building a kanal house, prefer using margalla in the slabs(lanter) & you can use sargodha in the katcha (flooring base), or you can mix sargodha & margalla if budget is tight.

Habib replied on Sunday, July 9, 2017 01:26 PM PST

Margalla is preferred on Roof RRCC and RBC and Rohri/ Sargodha Being Cheap can be used in Floors Foundations etc

Junaid Khan replied on Monday, July 10, 2017 05:20 PM PST

Thanks Mr. Waseem and Habib. Margalla Crush rate Rs.80/= is for per Sq-meter or else. Also what is the rate of Sagodha crush.

DHA multan forecast analysis

I was thinking to post some forecast analysis on DHA multan for weeks. Today got some time so though to share my details. According to my analysis, DHA multan installment options (almost all of those) will not give a handsome return in future because DHA multan management has very intelligently launched the installment values at maximum possible limits.The size of the project is huge, and will not be even 50% populated in next 10-15 years. The true present value of 5marla is 20 lakh and 1 kanal in 60 lakh. So after installments are completed, 5 marla would be at 25 lakh and 1 kanal would be at 76 lakh that is already the launch place + ongoing own. In 10 years time, 5 marla would be at 60, 1 kanal at 165-170 including development charges. It is not a negative review as I myself have investment in cash files, but the true picture of DHA multan. In my opinion, those who can invest in cash files can only get good return as files are under-priced comparing with installment price of 68. Regarding commercial, it is huge NO for me as highly over-priced considering dynamics of multan

DHA-Multan replied on Wednesday, June 28, 2017 10:23 PM PST

seems like you are also loser could not win in ballot.
check rates in Wapda town Multan, 10 marla is around 80 to 90 lacs as of today, think after 3 years. DHA will be top of all society after 3 years all size plot will be more than Wapda town and other famous societies. People already selling in other society and planning to move to DHA.

ShahzadQamar� replied on Thursday, June 29, 2017 02:16 AM PST

for people like you i mentioned that i myself have investment in DHA multan. Comparison with Wapda town is not apple to apple due to huge size of DHA multan and my friend its all about supply and demand. Wait and you will see

Junaid Khan replied on Thursday, June 29, 2017 03:35 PM PST

Dear Friends,

I think Mr. Shahzad has given his candid views and which seems quite logical. Instead of countering it with some references just telling him that he is loser indicates internal fear of the persons. Many of the Real Estate dealers in Lahore have same views about DHA Multan Installment plots what is presented by Mr. Shahzad. In fact I wanted to buy a 4 Marla Commercial in DHA Multan but walked back to invest in some other option. A small plot 5-10 marla in DHA installment plot is feasible both in long and short term but for bigger sizes and commercial the base price is set too high.

Question replied on Thursday, June 29, 2017 04:56 PM PST

Brother ShazadQamar, I agree with your logical comments on dha multan. Please advice if you recommend buying a residential installment file in dha bahawalpur and give gour feedback on gains over there? Thanks.

new replied on Thursday, June 29, 2017 05:58 PM PST

DHA Multan commercial seems very reasonably priced keeping in view it is in same range as DHA BWP however location and dynamics are far superior. Even current own is less than DHA BWP

new replied on Thursday, June 29, 2017 07:23 PM PST

Very valid arguments. I have the following answers
1. 225 lacs are payable in 6 years time in dha multan 4 marla commercial not today.
2. Even today no reasonable option is available in lahore in this price range in dha.
3. The point in comparing bwp and multan was to stress that multan inis cheper in commercial but better located and better dynamics than bwp.
4. Oversupply argume
nt would be valid if there were many options in multan and many commercial plots. As it seems dha is the only and safe option in its class and has only 300, 4 marla commercial plots.
5. DHA BWP starting own was 32 which stabilised at 28 for a Long time.
6. Don't forget it is mainly for army officers who have already been allotted land there, so not only for zamindar and businessmen.
7. just my fair analysis however I must say holding for six years will get you the maximum return

ShahzadQamar� replied on Friday, June 30, 2017 04:18 AM PST

Newly born bhaii the question is not 225 lacs or payment plan for 6 years. The thing is what will you get out of 225 lacs after 6 years? shall it be 5.5 crore in 10 years time ? if your answer is No then perhaps thats what myself and junaid are talking here. And for DHA bwp those who bought at 38 own what those buyers are earning now as profit except tension perhaps. DHA lahore is entirely different thing dont make that a bench mark.
and Question bhai DHA bwp residencial is totally risk free good investment considering very low rates as of today because we can expect at least one time jurk up there that might not come in dha multan now.

M Ali replied on Friday, June 30, 2017 01:57 PM PST

ShahzadQamar is a big time loser. His analysis is always wrong. He made lot of wrong predictions about DHA phase 9 before and after balloting. He is again trying to fool people with his useless predictions and trying to promote his investments.

Junaid Khan replied on Friday, June 30, 2017 07:32 PM PST

My humble request to the contributors not to be personal. If you do not like someone's comment or no matter how much absurd is a comment please do not post harsh and personal remarks. It will be good to counter the comments with logic, references and statistics. Such approach will definitely help all of us and give us various angle to analyze different investment options.

ShahzadQamar� replied on Saturday, July 1, 2017 08:07 AM PST

Ali all my analysis and predictions on phase 9 were proven right. when it was at 50 I asked everybody to stay out of it as it will fall down to 42_44. it did fell down to that level and that time i tried to post hundred times at LRE website for people like you to buy immediately but LRE website blocked all posts but those who were in personal contact with me almost all of those bought at 43 on my recommendation. Even i posted expected rates of prism in 2017 immediately after ballot and current rates are in same range that i posted. Then i entered multan at 28 and asked almost everybody including yourself to buy but at that time almost everyone including you were against DHA multan. Only CMY and myself were in favour of thsi project at 28 then even at 33 and later on even at 38. So please dont post your knuckle head type comments without any reference or details. Regarding your comment of "loser" Alhamdulillah i did not apply even a single plot on installments because i knew people will cry as most of you actually are. instead i invested in cash files.

M Ali replied on Saturday, July 1, 2017 10:51 AM PST

Once again Mr ShahzadQamar is lying. Plz prove when did the file touched 42lac in phase 9 after your analysis? Everyone Plz be aware.

ShahzadQamar� replied on Saturday, July 1, 2017 02:52 PM PST

i think your memory does not work or you are out of mind. it did fall and my closed ones bought. Anyhow I am not here to prove anything but to share my details for normal innocent people to give them best possible guidance. If you can not give any facts or figures stay silent

ShahzadQamar� replied on Saturday, July 1, 2017 02:53 PM PST

Akbar replied on Wednesday, December 12, 2018 12:21 AM PST

Possesion Year of Prism Phase 9 D.H.A

Respected LRE,
I have 10 Marla Residential Plot in "L" block. I want to construct house on this plot within 2 to 3 year.
Please to evaluate the expected possession year.

Khalid Mehmood. replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 01:53 PM PST

Phase 9 will be delivered after 9 year of Ballot approximately, and livable after 5 years more.
You can estimate it when you may able to build it as previous history of DHA, even ok if DHA delivered it all in 2025.
Please do not take it personal its history of DHA.

Mir replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 02:04 PM PST

People here (who have been heavily influenced by self-serving dealers) will have you believe that possession is imminent in 2/3 years, whereas, any one with common sense can imagine that it'll take ATLEAST a Decade to deliver possession in phase 9. You will therefore be able to start construction, by 2028 (if you're lucky).

I remember once the balloting of phase 9 was done in 2015, most people here had a period of 3 years in mind for delivering of possession and created a hype. Two years later, you can see that possession is far off.

M Zahid� replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 03:05 PM PST

Those who have missed the train will tell you Prism possession is not going to happen in 21st Century. Its a scam, its a worst project and even some see the prices coming down as they themselves looking at prism upside down.
But if you ask the other side you will find many positives and lot of optimism. On ground development is progressing better than expected. K,L,M side is more advance than others and DHA may offer possession first from this side. First possession will be InshaAllah in end of 2019.

observer replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 03:47 PM PST

Zahid sb only one person is posting all this crap about prism using multiple names and IDs. CMY should intervene to block him. People have forgotten Allah, instead of seeking barkat from Allah they do envy others

sardar replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 03:50 PM PST

these people r talking so negetive about the prism n spreading a wrong informations for the reasons that they intend to make people get rid off their holdings on throw away prices,AND THEY WILL GRAB ALL THESE.it wont happen.mark my words that the prices are ascending and will keep on increasing despite of ur negative propaanda.

Mir replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 04:14 PM PST

Lol. How immature of everyone to assume that anyone speaking facts related to Prism has some ulterior agenda OR is using multiple IDs. Sach karwa hota hai. Everybody knows Prism was a hype and scam created by dealers. That does not mean that its not profitable, all I am saying is that there is a good chance that the hype will not be sustained and nobody will have buyers at inflated prices when it'll be more clear that development will take AGES.

Learn to disagree without using foul language and with logic.

I wish no one any loss.

Investor DT replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 06:53 PM PST

Some people here bash Prism that it has gone down in prices over the past 12m etc and that there are no buyers etc. If I could share my experience of Prism over the past month.. I bought a kanal plot in June 2016 and just sold in past few weeks for about 10 lacs profit (after allowing for 4 development charges instalments). The point is there are still buyers in the market and there are still sellers in the market. People here often just make random statements without any evidence.

With regards to the development status, of course it will take sometime as it is the largest of the phases yet by DHA but it is progressing in the right direction plus the land doesn't need to be filled as was the case with phase 8. No wonder why the prices in the top location plots is crossing 140 lacs and yet not all development charges are paid.

In my opinion Prism still has a lot of juice left and in 2-3 years top location could be around 250 bracket in a likely scenario.

Adnan_Ali� replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 06:56 PM PST

Dear ASA, no need to be panic. Just believe in Allah, Here lot of people always ready to start debate about pro/con of Prism. since you have plan to build house after 2-3 years, its very rare chance that you get possession, but DHA promised for 3.5 years dev period starting from 1st Jan 2016, so even if you get delay more as worst case, then you will be able to switch from Prism to any other phase, Because after 2019 Prism will be at same stage where DHA8 was in 2015.

Sheikh Ghunaim Ahmed replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 07:31 PM PST

Dear,
Take the decision on the right time, Switch to Phase7 now and build your dream house ant time, otherwise it will make you screaming and cry the DHA. now am building my house in ph7, Y sector after 11 Years waiting. this is to let you know the facts, not disappointing you.
make your smart move that's it.

Ashfaq� replied on Monday, May 29, 2017 08:33 PM PST

Many people missed the train of Prism and now for the "the grapes are sour".

Mir replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 01:43 PM PST

People here are encouraging other people to invest hard earned money in Prism, (just to safeguard and increase the value of their investments and to obtain buyers in the market when they sell their plots at inflated prices). If anyone wants to build a house in the next 8 to 10 years, Prism is not an option for them. Its as simple as this.

Junaid Khan replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 01:46 PM PST

Interesting comments. Actually there is conflict of interests. One party is the actual owner who wants to build their home and purchased the plot for this sole purpose and others are investors/dealers who are vehemently opposing it. Looking at development history and livable conditions of DHA Prism is clearly 10 years from now. You can see that still see many deserted sectors in Phase-6, 7& 8. So if you want to build a house in 2-3 years then better move to other phase. If you want to retain it as investment then hold it for next 3- 5 years.

Going through all the discussion I am surprised how intolerant society we are. Instead of understanding the objective of other person and give him a sound and sincere advice we start beating our own trumpet.

Mir replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 02:18 PM PST

Completely agree Junaid. The person asked a valid question about building a house, and the clear answer that should be given to him is that the Prism will not be developed in 2/3 years, and not even in 7-8 years. And this is what the vultures and the mafia can't digest. A genuine buyer who wants to build a house will steer away from Prism for now ( and he is the end user). Any attempt at persuading him to wait it out for years (and perhaps a decade) is insincere and bad advice.

Uber replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 02:45 PM PST

Anybody who tells you that Prism is a bad investment or a scam is completely fabricating the facts or lying. Prism is an excellent investment and will yield very positive results. There is NO DOUBT about that!

Similarly, if anyone tells you that Prism will be ready in 2/3 years by some magic ultra fast lightening speed, that is a completely false information. DHA

Lastly, it is two simple questions with two simple responses:

1. Do you want an investment with great returns? Invest in PRISM. It is an ideal investment.

2. Do you want to build a house in DHA within the next 1-5 years and can not wait? Move to DHA 6,7 or 8 depending on your budget. Period!

Uber replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 02:51 PM PST

Just to add to comment above, even if Prism was ready in the next 3 years which is absolutely not possible (at most one block might be developed), it will take 5 years for it to be liveable which makes it at LEAST 8 years before it is worth making a house. The argument that it is surrounded by DHA phase 5 and will therefore be populated quickly is absolutely ridiculous. By those standards, DHA phase 8 should have had hundreds of houses being constructed because it is populated on all sides by Air Avenue / DHA 6 / airport etc yet it has VERY little activity despite possession. Same is the case with DHA phase 7. Even Phase 6 has taken over 10-12 years AFTER possession to get as far as it is now and still it has several empty blocks.

But as I have said above, if your plan is to make a home in the long term (8-10 years) or want very healthy returns on your investment, by far, DHA Prism is the best option in the market!

Habib replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 04:23 PM PST

If some one is holding prism for capital gain keep holding, If you are serious about home making then 10 years will a good guess 7 ys after ballot first few blocks will be opened for possession i.e. in 2022 and after another 3 years will be high time to start construction [this guess is based upon DHA phase 5,6,7, and 8 track record] and almost in 2 years same.

Habib replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 06:46 PM PST

All people agree on time lines, the people who don't like to listen are those who are holding for price gain and think such comments demoralize and depreciate their holding. But I don't think that is true, in fact prism is a massive train when it started moving it kept on moving and now stopped will stay for some time.

Mir replied on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 08:31 PM PST

Yes, they'll have you believe that Prism will surpass Phase 5 in a couple of years. I have never seen so many people try so hard to sell a myth. I`m not taking an issue with whether the price of Prism plots will increase in the coming years, but surely it will not have any buyers if plot-holders start demanding prices equal to the phases where possession is available.

Referenec from Lahore Airport

Dear LRE/CMY and Friends,

I am unable to understand why all the housing societies in Lahore give their location reference from Lahore Airport, i.e. 10 minutes from Airport, 20 minutes from Airport etc....

How many times in a year people travel to airport? Just a thought!

Uber replied on Sunday, May 14, 2017 09:45 PM PST

Brilliant question! Not to mention, all over the world, being close to the airport means cheaper properties. I completely understand people's preference being close to
Motorway entry / exit but airport is beyond me.

Waseem� replied on Sunday, May 14, 2017 11:25 PM PST

Airport is used as a popular, easy to locate & common reference. For anybody local or overseas, it will be easy to locate that society. This reference is also used to lure overseas customers, which play an important role in real estate.

Arsalan replied on Sunday, May 14, 2017 11:41 PM PST

Dear Uber and Waseem,

Despite all the pros and cons I would also love to have my house near Lahore Airport since the ambience of this area is excellent that can be compared to the well developed cities in the world.

Junaid Khan replied on Monday, May 15, 2017 06:28 PM PST

We are nation of strange people. Overall our analytical skills have not developed enough to analyze common issue to the core. That is the reason we are being exploited everywhere. Unfortunately our education system is pathetic and more pathetic is the way mathematics is taught in our schools. Result is that we focus on surface values rather than core issues. Same applies to the real estate. We prefer to live close to airport to listen and count daily take offs and landings rather than finding good and economical schools and hospitals, approaches and links to access our offices, etc. We are being exploited in the name of style, luxury, status, class. Sorry for being blunt but that is the truth and that is the reason we as a nation not progressing.

Nabeel� replied on Monday, May 15, 2017 06:47 PM PST

2 reasons:

1) Due to herd mentality.
2) With a large population and large family sizes, every month some unwanted relative arrives to spend holiday. Driving to pick them is a hassle. :-)

Thanks for reply. What is specific with "A" Class and with "B" Class? What are the main differences in A class and B class.

Dear Jawad (LRE),

You gave me the following estimates for my plots
:
J 477 around 38 to 40 Lacs
J 1074 around 35 to 36 Lacs
(Both Plots with current installments paid).

First of all, I would like to know how did you come up with these figures. Secondly, the prices you quoted me are 2-3 lakh less than what I got from other two agents. I also saw an ad on Zameen for plot J1075 demanding 41 Lakh.

Brother you put another add demanding 43 lakhs :-)

I would like to second it. When I asked for an estimate of Phase-7 CCA-3 Commercial 04 Marla the estimate was about 10-15 Lacs less than the market value.

@Farooq,

There is a difference in "Demand" & "Selling Price". People can make crazy demands. Couple of days back i saw two ads for same plot with asking prices 33 lacs & 40 lacs in K block.
