Dear CMY;

Is that an indirect confirmation of phase 5 extension ballot in December too? Do you expect those plots to reach atleast 50 lakhs (excluding development charges) after ballot given the prevailing rates in phase 5?

I agreed that most of the out-standing balloting of DHA will be soon including DHA-9

But my worry is when DHA will finish all the resources to generate money what will happen ? They have taken most of the amount from DHA-8 but no development started yet and I hope they are not spending resources of Dha-8 on DHA-6 and similarly why DHA has not touching few sector of DHA-7.

Where development charges of DHA-6 and 7 has gone ?.

If I am right DHA-9 will suffer the most and take much longer period to develop and perhaps as long as never.

Central Park

Dear All,

Can some body put light on Central Park Housing Society. I have bought 4 plots in that Scheme. I am living in Saudi Arabia. I have no idea if prices in Central Park improved or not yet.
It has been about 7 years since I bought plots and still one two three plots are not under posession. One is in G block and development work completed in that block but rest of D, F are still without development.
I think Urban Developers are very greedy people, they just know how to steal money from their memembers but don't know how to fulfil the promised they made with their members.
I am quite worried about the future of my plots and those who have bought in that society.

Malik replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 10:26 PM PST

Posession of D,F in near future seems impossible. Posession aras are well developed but price not improved. You may talk with the management und ask them to convert your plots into posession areas. You may have meeting with their top management and better to take 2-3 persons with you as so easily they will never convince.

DHA Lahore Phase 6 & 8 ( Unrealistic prices )

Dear all,

could you pls share your information that what are the reasons behind the sudden prices hike for DHA phase 6 and 8 in lahore. i perosnaly visited the site in phase 6 but did not find much construction of houses except few from contractors and in phase 8 there is nothing to see and discuss.

The question, WHY ?? is there big Mafia who are just increasing the prices, and there is no authority to stop them to do so. i dont think so next 15 years phase 6 will be fully consturcted and occupied. Suprisingly the paksitani expacts playing with rates and the local community is suffering becoz of their investments. Good Business.

dha replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 07:04 PM PST

sir 15 yrs are too much you will see phase 6 filling in 2 3 yrs and phase 8 has a advantage of location you will see big jumps in rates as the development work starts there.

Yousuf replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 07:37 PM PST

Dear, Sorry to Say, Not Agreed. i am visiting the phase 6 site more than 5 years and recently found the development.Phase 6 1kanal plots do not have average worth more than 65 Lac for A,B,J,K,H and L blocks. There is something Fishy fishy. DHA/Agents/expats are involved for this unrealistic hike. Tell me, From where you will bring the people to construct all these plots. people do not have money to live their life and working hard to buy the food for 1 time.

Habib replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 07:41 PM PST

prices are set by market trends and have no justification or logics, I dont think it is due to mafia, There are many reasons of price improvement, 6 ys back price was high but the a long slump came so as per natural cycle of up and down it had to happen, Two big phases of DHA has benn ready one namely phase 6 already handed over and that too 3 to 4 later than sceduled time but now is ground reality, same is true with phase 7 , These 2 are big on ground facts,
Before all was in air, so I dont think price of plots in phase 6,7 will be adjusted, Phase 8 is also getting advantage of this trend about 1 year back you could get a reasonable plot in DHA 8 in 40 to 42 Lac Now even worst location are 45 lac.
there has been following improvemnt in price
DHA 6 average range plots from 50 to 70 in 2 years
DHA 7 average range plots from 38 to 50 in 1.5 years
DHA 8 average range from 45 to 55 in one year.
This price appreciation will stay rather might increase in phase 7 after hand over.
DHA 6 might stay here for few years as similar change is not seen in DHA 5. If DHA 5 will gain then only phase 6 will gain more.

Inflation and PKR value replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 09:34 PM PST

Don't be confused or fooled by high units .... 8 million is still just 80k USD.....;)

DHA replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 10:28 PM PST

Mr. Yousuf and Mr. Fahad.

If somebody can't afford 80 lac kanal plot, he should not start complaining that only people with illegal money can afford it. That's a very negative and defeatist mindset. I have seen dozens of people in the last 10 years who have made millions through their hard work, intelligence and of course with the grace of Allah, and are now purchasing expensive plots in DHA. Let's not be jealous of them.

And for somebody who still think that plot prices in developed phases like phase 6 can be controlled paradise have been reading too many conspiracy theories circulating these days. Prices in files can be manipulated in very special circumstances but I doubt in a big market like DHA, the plot prices of developed phases can be manipulated to a degree which defies common sense.

What you guys need to consider is the rate of inflation prevalent in the country. The purchasing power of Pak Rupee is going down by around 15% every year. 80 Lacs would have sounded lot of money 10 years ago for even the upper middle class of Pakistan. You could have bought 25 acres of land around Lahore with that much money 10 years ago. Now? you can't even buy 8 acres.

And lastly, overseas Pakistanis and people abroad think pakistan is on the brink of failure and businesses are all closing. well friends, the only class in Pakistan which have suffered is the salaried class, that too not because of business environment but because of inflation. Businesses are doing well, you rarely come across a businessman in Lahore who says business is very bad. I know these people. Things may not be as rosy as in 2004 but it's not that bad either as some people tend to think.

Malik replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 10:32 PM PST

Do you people realy think that a 1-Kanal plot in DHA with possession having price of 50-60 Lac is still costly?

Inflation and PKR value replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 11:29 PM PST

@DHA u r so right and thats my point to give people some examples in 2001 my manager used to get 500k bonus now this year he got about 80 lakh

And I bought a plot in valacia in 2004 for 700k same is now worth 4million.

Hope people will understand and guess what phase 6 will be avg carore by 2012 end again I m talking it's value coz 1usd will be 100 plus

Ali Abbas replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 01:22 AM PST

MR YOUSAF AND FAHAD
PEOPLE WHO DONT HAVE EVEN MONEY TO BUY ONE TIME FOOD DAILY ARE NOTHING TO DO WITH DHA. DHA DEALS WITH ELITE OR UPPER MIDDLE CLASS FAMILIES.AND THEY BOTH HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY ANYTHING.
DHA PHASE 6 PRICES ARE HIGH DUE TO HIGH PRICES OF DHA PHASE 5.AS THEY BOTH EFFECT EACH OTHER DIRECTLY.IF ONE CANNOT BUY A PLOT IN PHASE 5 HE WILL GO FOR PHASE 6 BUT HE WILL NOT GO FOR ANYOTHER SOCIETY. DHA IS A BRAND AND BRAND HAS ITS OWN VALUE YOU SHOULD ALL KNOW THIS. DHA IS NOT FORCING U TO BUY PLOTS. IF U CANT AFFORD GO FOR ANYOTHER SOCIETY.THATS IT, WHY BLAMING DHA

FAHAD replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 02:15 PM PST

Mr. Ali Abbas

With due respect, can you please explain upper middle class how it can earn crores in a country where there is no business...means its a black money or mafia money who are circulating to their money to trap overseas people hard earned money...as far as BRAND is concerned...i think living in a country one should remain away from such rubbish things..do you know wot a brand name means..it doesnot mean to sell average quality product on an exorbitant price....no doubt DHA is a good society i am not biased about it like you on the other end...but DAH DOES NOT have oil reserves underneath...this i want to make you understand....

Syed Wali replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 06:42 PM PST

IT is very much realistic and market trend

Prices in DHA is still reasonable,It a well known and branded organization.Is there any similar place where after possession you get One Kanal less than 45 lakhs.

I think the prices in DHA Phase 6 and 7 will remain so with average 50 to 65 lakh and even more..

There is no Black mafia....now market trend is that there are more buyers (mostly Pakistani living abroad)....still they found a well developed,branded,One kanal Plot is cheap at 50 Lakh average

There is on average 8-10 lakhs more increase in next few months or so...then it will be stand still for next 1.5 years especially in DHA-7

Hope 4 the Best

Bahria is panning to start another project in islamabad named margalla enclave, insider info is bahria town management want to use bahria enlcave as a tool to repair its shattered reputation after phase 9 and safari villas mess, so they will finish development work maximum by june 2012 well before planned time.
this is a good time to invest as prices are gona jump once development work proceeds.

Truth, Islamabad replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 02:47 PM PST

There is saying " Azmoda ra azmodan kar e hamaqat ast" expectng good from Riaz Malik is ???? Prices will never jump in nex ten years anyways, with thev situation in the country and tens of thousands plots available n the market. He does not have any NOC for Islamabad and bothe these schemes are in Zone where housing is not allowed. Even if he gets permission from CDA and Parliment act would be required. Supreme court will never let him plunder the poor oeople, he will then offer you to go get a slot in Phase 8 and 9 or your money would be refunded after ten years with many deductions. Allah may save us.

Facts replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 05:44 PM PST

@ Truth, Islamabad:
Please don't spread false information without any base.
The Bahria Town has already acquired the NOC from CDA. Visit the following site:
http://www.pakistantoday.com.pk/2011/09/cdaâ€™s-financial-position-sinks-further/?printType=article

To see the overall development of Bahria Enclave in the past two months, please visit the following site and see the latest pictures.

I would recommend to all people who are interested or who has purchased plots in Bahria Enclave, to please visit the site of Bahria Enclave once to observe by own eyes the status of development.

Don't listen to the rumors spread by people for their small interests. May Allah guide us the right way. The situation in which we are now as a nation, is just because of our own acts (amaal). May Allah forgive us. AAmeen.

ABC replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 06:40 PM PST

@ facts:
I fully agree with you.

I am not a personal fan of malik riaz, but one thing i know is that he has made it possible for working middle class to have thier own house in islamabad through bahria enclave. I know many people who have bought plots in bahria enclave, both 10 marla and 5 marlas, and these are people who would never have imagined they can have thier own house in isb. Investment in bahria enclave might be risky but its worth taking for people who want to construct a house rather than just an investment.

jk replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 09:17 PM PST

There is no land in Islamabad proper and
Malik Riaz is not interested for just few kanal projects. His interest is to built a parallel Islamabad on the other side of Margala hills connected through a tunnel but impossible to be acceptable due to security reasons

Khayyam Shahzad replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 11:31 PM PST

@Tehrik-e-azadi, As Atiq bhai pointed above there are plots on the norther strip of E-11, which CDA has taken possession of. They are completely developed and I must say developed nicely. You can build on it right away.

What other brothers are referring to for Malik Riaz is a totally different scheme by Bahria in zone 3 which has a long way to go. Bahria told me they are 'in the process' of getting approvals by CDA. Since that scheme directly competes with CDA, some of us think that it won't get approved easily. If approved, I myself will jump ships (i.e. move from CDA to bahria). The only reason I haven't done so is because Bahria development are too far. This new development is very close to proper Islamabad.

Hope this helps

Tehrik-e-azadi replied on Friday, September 23, 2011 01:35 PM PST

Open up the map of E-11 and D-12 and decide on your own.
I will suggest to go for D-12/3 or 2 on the top belt of margala, a for better choice then E-11 which is having far low standard infrastructure

Visited LDA One Window few days back. Looks CM Punjab put in his effort but perhaps it would not achieve the desired objectives to change the culture, improve efficiency and resolve long outstanding issues of the masses especially retired government employees in the presence of certain culprits still there (including its former Patwari/now AD)essentially responsible for the disaster in the LDA Avenue 1 such as that most of the people could not get their plots even after 9/10 years while they paid in full.

DHA replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 08:26 PM PST

Difficult to comment until one knows the exact number of your plot in G block, but for the sake of discussion, let's assume you have an average location plot in G block and wants to buy an average location plot in T or W of phase 8. G block plot will sell in mid 70's lacs and T and W block will cost you mid 60's. Let's assume the difference to be 10 lacs. Making this switch will cost you around 2.5 lacs in charges and commissions.

From what it seems, it will not be a good decision as per my recommendation. G block is developed and houses are built on it and T and W in phase 8 are on papers. There is a minimum of 5 years advantage on development side with G block and don't underestimate the value of development. There will be people who will tell you that rates in T and W will grow faster than G block in short term but I don't agree to that. May be in the long term, T and W may be higher than G in phase 6 but as of now, I expect more gains in G than T and W. With the way cost of construction going up, people have realized that they should start their house sooner rather than later.

Atleast no chances of Qabza group etc in Fazaia in your absence. So you may be quite sure of safety of investment while abroad. A 01 Kanal plot should be in your budget range now. Likely to have constructed houses after 2-3 years.

construction of basement

Dear friends
i have one Kanal plot in bahria-4 Rawalpindi.This plot is around six feet lower than road level.I have no choice except to add basement.Recomendations/suggestions from the well wishers of the forum are requested.Please do add merits/demerits and precautions if basement is constructed.

Mian Sahib replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 01:53 AM PST

From my personal experience, I think that if basement is properly designed, well ventilated & properly constructed with good drainage arrangement,there is no harm in going for that.Cost will of course be higher because of construction of retaining walls & waterproofing/damp proofing etc. Advantage is that you get an additional storey & still keep the building height within limits. In your case you will not have to carry out much excavation.

Architect SA replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 03:10 AM PST

One of the important precautions while constructing a basement is water & damp proofing. In my experience, hot bituman coating with 6 mil polythene sheets will work in combination with a porous PVC or cement pipe drain at the lowest level of the retaining wall. Make sure that porous foundation drain is provided on all sides. To darin the area around retaing wall, fill area around retaing wall upto 2 feet wide with a mixture of crush/stone and sand above foundation drain.

@Jameel Malik.

1. I also own a 1 Kanal plot on road "A" of BT Rawalpindi Phase 4.
2. Most of the houses build in the vicinity of my plot have full (big) basements. This proves that building of basement is good & popular among the people.
3. Advice of our brother Architect SA is very important. So keep it in mind while building your house.
4. I am not an expert but have found many people complaining of problems to drain the water from basement due to load shedding/failure of generators.
5. I suggest that you do not build any facility in the basement which uses water for example Toilets or Kitchen etc. Use your basement as DD, Games room/Theatre, Workout (excersise), Store etc.
You can build Powder (Guest Toilet)close to the stairs leading to basement.
6. However you will have to have a standby genrator irrespective of what you build in the basement.

May Allah (SWT) bless you with a nice house.

Regards.

one Kanak house is already big enough and there is no need to construct a beasement. it is not constuction only but to manage it also. furthet if you have made you mind that all of your kids can have portion each. none of the kids ,brithers or sisters live togather and if you your self is not living with you brother sisters do not expect from kids.

Just construct an average house and spend rest of the money on education of your kuds, may Allah help and guide you better.

you are impressive

Mian Nadeem replied on Thursday, September 22, 2011 10:51 PM PST

Dear all:In Bahria mostly plots are in land filled areas.Due to this people are constructing basement. 6 feet depression is not issue in Bahria. In 70 % plots u have to dig 5 to 10 after land test report.
I recomend u not to construct basement & construct 2 story house.
Purchase plot from remaining amount for investmemt purpose.
