Dear Friends from Rawal pindi and Islamabad,
Assalam alaikum,

contact of a relaiable construction company like Malaysian construction company or any other.I am planning to come to pakistan for 2 wks in ist wk of july 09.Please help me in the above issue i will be grateful.

Khayyam Shahzad replied on Thursday, May 21, 2009 01:31 AM PST 

Dear Friend,

I highly doubt you will find a foreign company to take on an individual project, but I could be wrong.

I was also in the same situation. I reside in USA and was looking for a very reliable builder/contractor that could build my house on a turn key basis. I spent over three months in search for a builder with good reference, proven quality of workmanship, and some one who I can trust with my eyes closed. The builder I ended up selecting is:

Mr. Ahmad Waqas
Telephone:
Email:

Please feel free to
contact me directly at if I can answer any of your questions. I picked Mr Waqas after seeing his work first hand, checking his references, his commitment to level of details, and quiet honestly my gut feeling after meeting him in person a few times. Please note the house build process is not officially started yet, but some of the leg work is being handled by Mr Waqas and he has exceeded my expectations already.

Please do your own due diligence. I highly recommend Mr. Ahmad Waqas to build your house.

What is Istam paper?

Today i saw a property (house) was available for the sale, it was writing underline that "Istam Paper"

I know what exactly Istam Paper means, but what does it means in property term. Does it means it has no registry or LDA transfer? Just a single Istam Paper. What is the future of such property?

Shadab Colony

Ref to discussion 43330
Dear Shadab lover would you share with us the development status and stabdard of Shadab Colony and how fair and Transparent is Tansfer of these plots with Ahbab developers

Sadab Lover replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 02:24 PM PST 

I sold the plots due to main entrance was not so good. Its almost .75 KM small road to reach its main gate. That time double road was not built and the area was so dusty.

During my visit last year I saw that houses already built in A block. I remember my both plots were in :A: block. I bought the plots in re-sale at 2 lac each. and sold at 6.50 lac each. after holding of five or six years.

The seller was here in Saudi Arabia. We went to Ahbab office. and transfer was made during half and hour with nominal transfer fees.

Same thing happened when I sold. Just visited the office after so many years and surprise to know that no charges were due during these years. They said your plots are clear. Purchaser paid the nominal transfer fees and it was done within half and hour again.

As far as know I was paying every-year a handsome amount to maintain my other plot in Muslim Nager opposite to AWT 2 society.

SADAB colony comes under Ahbab Developers. A middle class society with normal facilities but with clean deals.

(Its only memory which I shared with you).

Waqar Latif replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 02:37 PM PST 

65K for 1m

thats even great, i guess throw away price.

Sadab Lover replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 03:21 PM PST 

I sold three years before dear waqar...

Jameel replied on Thursday, May 21, 2009 12:55 AM PST 

I have been visitor here for Long but this information is new to me and very helpful.
I think we should keep interest alive, by sharing this type of information.

ss replied on Thursday, May 21, 2009 04:21 AM PST 

There is another small society in that area opposite Pak arab and much devloped now. Don't exactly remember the name now the
prices are around 1lac per marla.

Habib replied on Thursday, May 21, 2009 01:25 PM PST 

Opposite pakarab is mian colony and on Back side is Gulshan Ahbab I dont know which one you are referring to. Gulshan Ahbab I have seen But i did not Like as level of roads re far below the Main road so sewage propblem of this society can never be solved.
Only good society there is pakarab I dont know what are rates there now.

Usman Farooq replied on Sunday, January 3, 2010 02:19 AM PST 

I was just surfing the google to find the infomration about Gulshan-e-Ahbab opposite to Pak Arab, Lahore. And i found this discussion forum. I have a 1 kanal plot in Gulshan-e-Ahbab available with me from last few years. I am only keeping it for investment sake. Can anybody guide me should i retain it for some time if there is going to be increase in per marla price after Gas connection gets available here as told by developers, and the proposed Ring road gets constructed just outside the colony or i should sell it right now?

Friends, I would like to invite comments on the CDA auctions. As you may know, CDA is having an auction on May 29 & 30. The residential ones are:

D-12/1: Plot # 1485.
D-12/4: # 468 and 469 (Both facing Margalla on 150’ double road)
G-10/2: # 58-69, 93, 94.
G-10/3: # 135, 166-169, 181.
I-16/4: # 1-7. (I guess on service road)

As a non-expert, I feel that the it offers a better opportunity than a normal purchase (PROVIDE YOU LOVE THE LOCATION) because:

A. The chances of fraud in the plot papers are Zero. I would be very hesitant to handover somebody one crore rupees or more and then hope that no problem will come up with the papers years down the road. May be this is just because I am not used to this business.

B. You will be trusted more whenever you are ready to sell because you would be the “Original Allottee”.

C. Chances of buying too much under or over current market price are slim, as in any open auction.

I want to know if there is any weight in these points or not.

Aamir replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 01:09 AM PST 

"Fraudulent Free" is the most attractive aspect of this deal.
Rest budget,
location etc are your personal choices. I will highly recommend if you can afford.

Jabbar replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 01:39 AM PST 

Just to share a thought...very often I have seen that
prices in CDA auction are higher than the market prices. Reason that I came to know was that just before the auction, some big investors would buy plots in the area where plots are being auctioned. Then they will go in the auction and buy 1 plot at a higher price. This will then become the market price and hence they will make profit on their plots.

Waseem Malik replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 11:32 PM PST 

Jabbar this mechanism of price control won’t work at this particular time, when investors are not too anxious investing in real estate.

@Aslam Sahab

Sorry i misunderstood.

Silicon project? whats that? u mean IT Tower, Gulberg? If yes, it is way behind the time line, because the work was stopped for a while (i guess they too concern about recession), but started with the delay of 6 months. But its pretty slow, Let see....

I personally never have any interaction with them, but I think they are a bit more credible then bharia town owner

Pakistankakhudahafiz replied on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 07:57 PM PST 

Mr. Waqar Latif,
Good to see you commenting on property matters in contrast to mostly anti Pakistan bragging.
Unfortunately, you’re out of proportion reaction to a simple question, hints that you are desperately trying to look a property enthusiast rather than one of RAW’s propaganda stooge.
All those links that you have provided and much more can be found by simple web search.
If you have some information about ground realities than please, do share with us!
Tell us about the development work, number of homes being built, facilities, security, real market value etc. etc.
Other wise just keep bashing Pakistan army.

Sadab Lover replied on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 10:42 PM PST 

I kept two plots of 10 merla for six years and later sold in Sadab Colony. Society did not ask any extra money or charges. All they said your plots are with clear dues which were paid long long time before I purchased them.

Although I did have some confrontation with Waqar Latif in recent past, but in my opinion, he is patriotic and a good muslim (better than me)...so dear YOURkhudaHafiz, plz show some respect for some one who at least shared some info even though it is available on google.

And dear moderator, why dont you block the posts having offensive words...PakistanKaKhudahafiz should not be allowed in a Pakistani forum...hope you understand. Thanks.

shahzad replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 04:14 PM PST 

I think central Park is a flop society, they are advertising a lot that does not mean its doing good, so many years have past since the launch of this society but no good progress because there were not much buyer interested to live her or to invest. Urban Developer though have good projects under their belt but still you have to be careful with them as there have been many cases where they have not returned the money.
Location and the surrounding area is the biggest problem here plus Urban Developer is also not a credible name for me

Dear CMY,

Need you advice regarding Bahrai 8 Rawalpindi for next 3 - 4 years time limit. please advice how far this is recommended. Thanks

akhtar replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 12:23 AM PST 

Brother Ali,

DHA Valley is very good investment DHAI is able to give you plot possion any time after the payment, because the land is under their possession.

CDA cannot deliver any more sector in islamabad, because in each sector some villages are existed, the poor owner of the lands ask CDA to pay them market rate for their land, and choor cda is not able to pay them market rate and they cannot handle the people any where in rural islamabd the property agents have relations inside cda and also with the district administrator, to grab the money from cda.

since 20 years i am watching CDA develop sector I-10 but I-11 is still not yet handed over to the plot owners they are waiting.

same G-12, D12,E12, D13, E13 etc...
cda have I 15 and i 16,i 17 only.

C 12, C13, D13,14, E14, for next 30 years. not yet land acquired.

DHAI valley's land was acquired in bfore 10 years and development will be started very soon after the express way is ready.

Abdullah Qureshi replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 01:59 AM PST 

But then you look at DHAI 2 ext and there is no news of development. Seems to me DHAI has over-expanded itself and taken up too many projects on its hands.

Ali from Riyadh replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 08:24 PM PST

Thanks for your response. Plz comment on Bahria 8 prospects. Is it a safe investment?

i am wondering on views of this civilian N deal offered by France...if its true then power shortage problem would be solved and growth rate will revive...thereby seeing recovery in realestate as well.

but first of all...is this true or this is still in the air thing? because there are mixed messages...sometimes they talk about considering all options on pakistan's nukes...i hope i am not violating the non-realestate policy....this topic does relate to real-estate indirectly....

Waqar Latif replied on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 01:17 PM PST 


http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8052587.stm


There is no Agreement or deal yet, just hints (read whole news, since title seems to be miss fit). But again, it will take around 3-4 yrs just to complete single Power plant, and Normally pakistan's need is growing 1500+ MW/yr, so practically there is no sign of removing loadshadding.

Also, practically, it is not going to effect real estate in any means, but pakistani realestate, kse etc works on news so who knows.

Naveed Yaseen replied on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 11:20 PM PST 

Pakistan should look into a very simple but effective nuclear reactor design called ‘pebble bed reactor’.

China has chosen this reactor design for most of coming projects.

Azher Syed, Helensburgh replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 04:06 AM PST 

This is exactly what is known as "to make a mountain from the mole". Is this what our polticians are good at?how many stooges did accompany the chief to that foreign troop? Every one is aware of three stooges but in relation to Pakistan's political legacy, the number of three stooges needs to be greatly increased. May God Almighty have mercy on Pakistan.

Hussain Kaisrani replied on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 06:06 PM PST 

ASK Sahib! The demand and supply ratio has been very much changed in Safari Villas Bahria Town Lahore as Bahria Town has given possession of many villas recently. The price is not increased much.

Brother Javed Manzoor seems to me VERY new on this page. His demand is TOOOOOO high. It has NO relation with ground realities. The price of this
location villa should not be more than 45 lac IF it is ready to live. I don't think that it is ready to live. Bahria Town will take at least more 6 months to finalize it.
Thanks.

location and planning of Bahria Town Overseas Enclave C Lahore but could not yet get any clue. I am of the view that Bahria Town management has not made themselves clear about Category C. Please check if refund money from Bahria office suits you or market rates. Thanks.

Hussain Kaisrani replied on Thursday, May 21, 2009 01:01 AM PST 

Junaid Gill Sahib!
Welcome back to Pakistan. You should have a budget of around Rs.2 lac per marla for Bahria Town Sector B. Double story house will cost you around Rs.42 Lac in 8 Marla size. This is to give you an idea.
Prices may be little bit higher or lower.
Hope to see you in Bahria Town during next week. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you think that I am able to assist you in any matter. Thanks.
