DHA replied on Friday, February 17, 2012 09:13 PM PST

There are many pockets in the new balloted area of phase 7 which have not yet been acquired by DHA. These areas have been marked most as "unplanned area" or "reserved area". DHA seems to have learnt a lesson from its past and is only allotting plots in locations which have been already taken over by DHA. With time when DHA acquires more land, these "unplanned areas" be converted into plots as well.

today i did live chat with dha operator and i asked in which areas of phase7 development is going on they told me in P Q R blocks.i asked when development will be started in newly balloted blocks like Y Z he replied no time frame can be given.
friends whats your opinion about this.in my opinion dha did ballot under the pressure of parkview files holder to shut their mouths but now they will take time to develop these blocks to tease parkview files holders.whats ur opinion.

Salman replied on Friday, February 17, 2012 01:32 AM PST

Why to tease us,doesn't sound right.i donot like their decision of giving land in phase 7 instead of 8,actually a victim too but teasing makes no sense.

To All,
While buying PV file, were you 100% sure, or got the firm assurance that you would get the plot in original Parkview or in Phase 8? If your answer is no, then thank Allah and move on.
I for one, at least had been told clearly by my estate agent (LRE) and DHA staff back in 2008 that the location could be anywhere and even across Barki Rd. Due to that uncertainly PV files were never charming and always less than ph 8 proper (I paid 7 lacs less than Ph. 8 proper file back in 2008 and now satisfied with the outcome). It was always a gamble which we played and lost. Cheers,

Khan replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 08:59 PM PST

I am a PV file owner. I fully endorse the above which is logical and realistic. If we start thinking outside the box, our worries will be much less and we will lead a much contended life. We do not accept the outcome of our own decisions and would always blame some one else for it.
Just cheer up.

FX replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 09:07 PM PST

Khan and KAR; Hats off to both of you for such positive thinking, which is almost missing in our society now.

parkview replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 09:23 PM PST

i do not agree with kar and khan.it is written in out files that these files holders will get plot under phase8.and in 2008 when i bought my files lahorerealestate team assure me that parkview file holders will be adjusted in phase8 and same place of parkview.

Khan replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 09:48 PM PST

Mr. Parkview, it is hard for me to believe that LRE gave you any such assurance. I have fairly long relationship with them. My experience tells me that they are outright professionals and do not make such loose talk and do not give such assurances.

We some how like to draw our own conclusions which suit us and are not based on facts. Let us grow up.

Dr. Khawar, qatar replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 10:05 PM PST

When the DHA phs 8 proper and park view files were available I was interested to buy a file and had many conversations with LRE staff about which one I should buy. This is obviously before the DHA phs 8 ballot. They clearly mentioned to me that proper file is more expensive because it is sure that they will be alloted plots in DHA 8. The park view files on the other hand were much cheaper and that was because there was doubt about the location. They said if you want to make 100% sure then pay more for proper file. If you take chance in park view file, you will pay less but the price is less only because there is some doubt about location. I chose to play it safe and bought a proper file. Later in ballot I was alloted a reasonably good plot in X block of phase 8.

I am happy that i paid more and bought proper file. But had I bought park view file instead I would definitly have in mind that I am paying less and if I get inferior location it shall not bother me. The silver lining here is that my proper dha 8 plot in X block will be developed years after the park view plots just balloted even though park view holders gamble or taking a chance has not given best of the possible outcomes.

Happy Man replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 10:48 PM PST

I agree. Since Phase 7 will be delivered years before Phase 8 the adjustment in Phase 7 is much better in a sense specially for people like me who need the plot to make home. Now our file is converted to plot. We should be happy. Price will appreciate very well after possession in Phase 7 just like phase 6 which is not too far and where 10 Marla plots are priced as high as 55 to 60 Lakh. Also your plot will be close to centeral Golf Course of Phase 6+7 which will practically be a single phase after the hand over of Phase 7. Do not be too disappointed. I guess DHA did not have enough land around Park View scheme to adjust so many files so upon the pressure of file holders they have given them another location which is not that good but has some good prospects too. I have heard some of these plots are already developed but possession is not given yet.

Sincere adviser replied on Friday, February 17, 2012 12:19 AM PST

I think everyone to judge his own profit and loss depending on what price he bought PV file. If it gained you should be happy, if loose money even then be happy as after 3-4 years your loss would hopefully turn in profit. If in need dispose it off and invest elsewhere.

Khan replied on Friday, February 17, 2012 05:35 AM PST

Mr Ahmad, Let us again think a little cool. Suppose on a ballot in Ph 8, you got a plot next to grave yard and 7 feet ditch ( which incidentally many people in ph 8 got). Would you be satisfied then or it still be fraud. File is a promise to give you a plot. Its location and topography is not guaranteed. Even after allotment, the location can be changed unless you pay full amount and take possession. This a universal practice. Lets not always talk of fraud and rule of the law. This in fact is the law.We should accept the consequences of our decisions made for future gains(it may become losses as future is as uncertain as any thing). Do not lose heart may be your next effort will be more rewarding. Insha Allah. Good luck.

Salam! mera sawal yeh hai ke kya fake registry par inteqal ho jata hai kya aisa mumkin hai?

Habib replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 04:58 PM PST

yes it is possible
There are many types of Fake
1. Fake stamp papers but Buyer and seller OK yes untill Fake pers are caught
2. Double registry: seller does Fraud and sellls the Land Twice., It is common Frauds People when get registry sometimes they are so stisfied by Court that they Become Lazy to report to Patwar Khana For Intiqal for years, In this case Intiqal will be done in Fabvor of the First person who reaches Patwar Khana. If 2nd one come soonafter then Intiqal of First will be held.
3. Seller is totally fake Like Plot is in name of a women who Just does Thumb impression and sellers who is usually a family member does Fraud in her name. In this case again intiqal will be done.

All these are examples of Dewani Cases which can continue for years.

That is why when Buying remember 2 rules
Check Papaers are Original [ we all do that]
Check seller is correct or not This is mostl Forgotton [This Complicates further if the Plot is Owed by a woman or Mukhtar Nama involved]

In Short Neither Court No Patwar Khana varifies the Originality of Papers or seller, they only see that all procedural formalities are fulfilled.

Faisal replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 05:22 PM PST

Thanx for the reply

kya intiqal bhi fake hota hai? i mean k double hosakta hai like registry agar fake registry par intiqal hojaye tu asal house holder koun hoga?

Thank you very much Mr. Anas Javed for your update. Any guess about habitat; how many families are residing in there?

Khan replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 09:10 PM PST

Go to the google earth and see for yourself the construction in Sukh Chayn. Since the neighborhood has 24/7 security control the habitat really does not matter. However according to my information over 200 families are living there. It has telephone/gas/internet cable and all the other facilities.Some +100 houses are under construction.

Hussain replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 10:13 PM PST

Thank you Mr. Khan, in fact, I checked google map but it not updated since may 28, 2011, o i wanted to know about the growth during last one year or so.

I reckon, you are living in Sukh Chayn and may be the best person to talk with if you do not mind to share your e mail or phone number with me. I have almost made my mind to built my house there but want to clear few doubts. Thanx!

Anas Javed replied on Saturday, February 18, 2012 05:49 PM PST

Mr. Hussain Sukh chayn growth is very fast as per my experience because when I Visit Last year my sister start to built house I surprise during this visit that to many families are living there and to many houses are under construction .So I decided to start construction of my house as well as my brother House. BY the grace of Allah both Houses are now get start construction. My Advise if you want to construct house then don’t wait because price for construction material in Pakistan rapidly increased from last year, Difference of material cost about 600,000 Rupees for the same construction.

Hussain replied on Saturday, February 18, 2012 10:39 PM PST

MohsinOCS replied on Friday, February 17, 2012 07:34 PM PST

Yes Bahria overseas B is fully ready for possession and construction.
No idea and never heard of any club fee.
If you immediately apply for possession after buying a plot then their will be no monthly charge for 3 Years. If you do not complete the house construction within those 3 years then a monthly charge of 2500 PkRs will be imposed after completion of 3 years. And if you just buy the plot and do not apply for possession then you will have to pay Rs 500 monthly.
@Jamz
Transfer fees of 10 M plot is 73500 Rs
Stamp duty is 23000 Rs
Dealer commission 1%

Advice

Salaam

Need sincere & honest advice I was born and brought up in Dubai and now working here I recently (December 2011) purchased a 1 kanal file in DHA 9 from Lahore real estate on my mother’s name
The money was transferred though proper channel UBL bank from Dubai to Lahore in my father’s account.

Fewdays back my family in Pakistan received a letter from FBR or income tax dept. asking them to declare the source of money & payment of income tax I guess as I haven’t seen the letter yet

now my question is do I have to pay income or sales tax on 1 kanal file as I don’t have the land yet it’s just a file and secondly the money with which I have purchased the 1 kanal file on my mother’s name is earned in Dubai am I bound to pay tax on oversea earned money in Pakistan ?
as my mother is a house wife and my dad is retired after completing his services in Dubai and we don’t have any kind of business or source of income in Pakistan

jj replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 12:45 AM PST

just show ur remittance receipt ..no need to pay tax on foreign earned money

Irfan Khattak replied on Thursday, February 16, 2012 02:06 AM PST

@Junaid. Please tell your mother to reply to that letter as under:-

" I am a house wife. The file is purchased from the remittences of my son who is serving in Dubai. In this connection, I am enclosing the bank statement of my husband bank account in which the remittence made by my son is highlighted. Regards "

This reply will close the issue.

Dear All,
I think some have not understand the news. the fact is that some alloties have applied for the refund of their moneys deposited against allotment of plot in LDA Avenue 1, and LDA is not going to refund their money back to them. This is the news about such cases, that LDA is now going to refund the moneys to such applicants, and not to all alloties of under litigation plots.
Don't you worry....

All Park view files are allocated behind Phase 7, extention of block U, T, X and Y towards BRB canal. It would be good if they will get the access form Bedian Road but there may not be appreciation in price for 1-2 years as the price of plots for these blocks of phase 7 were already low.
Please suggest what could be the price range of 1 kanal in these extended block with development charges and how much would be the development charges to be paid?
