Buying a house

Dear Readers,

I am looking to buy a 5 marla house in lahore to live in a decent area (including southwest and central lahore) . My budget is 25 lac. I want some suggestions that which part / scheme is better and affordable in this budget.
Also if someone is interested in selling one, do let me know to be contacted.

Thank you and Allah hafiz.

Waqar Latif replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 02:21 PM PST 

25 lac for 5 marla house..

the only places where you can look would be going upwards at canal 2wards Sozo Water park. since cost of double story house 5 marla is also around 2 million.. (u can say 4 less)

Waqar Latif replied on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 02:25 PM PST 

I am currently working on a guy.. who is selling a house on 30 lac double story of 4.5 marla for my personal use.. but that street is only 12 feet.. which is the biggest disadvantage of this.. but access wise that house is at perfect
location.. (& it is not a bad place to live either like towards jhaal.. since it is pretty close to Gulberg, liberty.. etc.. )

Exchanging Bahria Overseas plot with Safari Villa

Brothers/sisters,

I need your help here.

I am planning to visit Pakistan in March and considering exchanging my overseas Bahria plot in Rawalpindi with Safari Villa either in Lahore or Rawalpindi.

This Bahria plot cost me 29 K sterling pounds. In case of exchange I am willing to spend more money on Safari Villa or worse case scenario is that I would go for refund that would cost me 20% deduction of my original money (29 K sterling pounds).

Somehow I think Bahria Management cheated us on the name Overseas Block.

Any good advice would be appreciated here.

Dr. Asif Hamid replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 02:06 PM PST 

They are big cheaters. Don't go for Safari Villa. They used third class material and no class for quality of work. I am a doctor and can build myself much better than bahria contractors. If you are interested I can forward pics showing the quality of work.

hak replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 03:34 PM PST 

Dr.Asif, i am also planing to go fot 8 marla safari villa. Would be a favour if you could provide few pics to assess the quality of work.Thanks


Adeel replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 05:20 PM PST 

>>Somehow I think Bahria Management cheated us on the name Overseas Block

Same management would be dealing with Safari Villas.

Best is to get rid of it and buy a plot in some reputed scheme during your visit.
Construction takes about 6-12 months. Plan to rent a home during construction period and try making home of own choice for yourself or atleast under your supervision.

Dr. Asif Hamid replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 06:07 PM PST 

Dear Hak
I have sent 42 pics. Just tip of the ice.....

Regards

Pardesi, Jeddah replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 06:16 PM PST 

Dr Sb

Can I have the pics too as I was also interested?


Rizwan replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 08:54 PM PST 

if you get refund, you will loose more then 40%, they will give you refund on PKR @ the exchange rate on which they receive money. So 20% deduction by bahria & 20%+ loss on currency devaluation.

Dr. Asif Hamid replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 09:11 PM PST 

Dear Pardesi Sahib

Assalam-o-Allaikum

Please check ur mail. I have sent 42 pics as requested.

Dr.Asif, thanks a lot, i have received.

Dr. Asif Hamid replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 09:25 PM PST 

Dear Hak and Pardesi Sahib

Please give your honest opinion after going through all the pics. Everybody has the right to know true picture. You can even upload these pics on you tube or any other internet site for the benefit of expat clients.

Thanx

Hamid, Toronto replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 10:46 PM PST 

Thanks for everybody feedback. Much appreciated!

Dr sahib, could you please send me some pics as well at ?
I think I should get back refund money in pounds. Lets see how this goes. I know it will not be an easy task but will you all my cards.

Thanks CMY for picking up my call. You are ray of hope for overseas fellows. Thanks for providing us this wonderful forum. May Allah bless you and your family for this.

Rizwan, bostonexpress@hot replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 11:04 PM PST 

I have doubt that they will refund you in GBP. Please let me know if you do get, because i'm also planning to get refund.

Bahria Orchard - Official detail are now provided

Dear All,
Salaam,

Bahria Town has now announced details and sales of its project Bahria Orchard on Raiwind Road.

It seems that Awami Villas will be called as Bahria Cottages in future.

Details are available on
http://www.bahriaorchard.com/

Thanks.

owais replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 12:31 AM PST 

what are the rates?

Hassan Malik replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 03:34 AM PST 

Kaisrani sahib can u confirm that bt has possession of all the land.

Hassan Malik replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 03:36 AM PST 

and also if bt will be linking this to there project on canal road, if possible can you please map this projects
location.

Ali11 replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 04:29 AM PST 

Bahria Orchard earlier was named as bahria fairwinds.

I've been constantly watching the development which is very good. Bahria has constructed some 1-kanal houses and are available for sale. possession ranging from 1 month to 1 year. One kanal house roughly 1.4 crore .installments option also available.

Gas is not available, they say they can arrange LPG cylinder, if you are really crazy to live in that part of the world.
From Bahria Orchard raiwind is less than 2 minutes.

Ali11 replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 04:31 AM PST 

There will be no link of this project to canal Road. I think its impossible.

Hassan Malik replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 04:34 AM PST 

so Ali sahib do you think this project will not succeed because of the distance and over pricing. Because it has taken BT canal projects to get to this stage after more than 1 decade.

Habib replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 01:44 PM PST 

Bahria are good developer @ Max they will give promised Plot in promised time with no extra charges. But to but a kanal in 40, one will definitely see what other options we have in mind. what about NFC 1 Valancia or DHA 6 you can arrange in these 40 to 45.

Hassan Malik replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 02:43 PM PST 

if the price was set at 30 lac then people would definatly buy and due to the buying the rate would have gotten to the 40's stage but this way no one will buy. They really should have made a new project right next to there existing one on Canal road.

M. Ali replied on Monday, January 19, 2009 12:21 AM PST 

I think it will be important for people considering buying in Bahria Orchards that NOT all the picutes shown in Community Features at Bahria Orchards' website are really of Bahria Orchards. Many of them are from Bahria Town's along the canal projects. I hope most of the people visiting this website will be aware but I just wanted to highlight that just in case.

DHAI - overseas block

Dear all,

I got the allotment of dhai 8 marla plot in overseas block. I had to pay 1200 dollars before 26th december 2008 which I paid by sending the pay order. How can i get the confirmation of payment of this installement from dhai?
I am trying to call dhai office for last month but its not working.

Any suggestion?

Regards

Hamid, Toronto replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 11:58 AM PST 

You can call at main number and they will give you another number for account dept. You can confirm about your payment from there.

I have to say that their services are not that good. I have dealt with Bahria and they are very responsive on this matter. From Bahria, within two weeks, you will get your receipt

nadeem replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 12:43 PM PST 

yes , you will get receipt in two weeks but what about plot ?? to have possession, if at all any , your son should have grown kids.

Naem Abbasi replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 02:47 PM PST 

Dear Nadeem , u r very right, this is what i have told my son that Bahria Town Rawalpindi may hand over my Awami Villa to u r son ( once u grow up n get married n get a son ).Thanx Nadeem sb for preparing the menbers of Bahria Town for worst

Asif replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 11:24 PM PST 

Never buy any villa or bahria home. I booked 2 safari villas in their Lahore project and was told that I will get possession within 3 months of full payment. Awaiting possession since 2006. If anybody would like to see the quality of work done I can upload all the pics. Can somebody guide me how to upload pics on you tube.

Hamid, Toronto replied on Sunday, January 18, 2009 11:18 AM PST 

Asif Bhai,
Can you please share your experience here? Actually I am planning to visit Pakistan in March and considering exchanging my overseas Bahria plot in Rawalpindi with Safari Villa either in Lahore or Rawalpindi.

Any good advice would be appreciated here.

Phase 7

Dear readers

I have invested in DHA in phases 7, in P and S blocks. Over the past two weeks the markets mood seems to be alot better and in high spirit.

I would like to know whether know is a good time to sell or is it wise to wait a further 6 months before selling these plots.

The question I an answer for is it worth holding the plots for a further 6 months will prices increase enough to justify this holding of the plots for a further 6 months.

Jameel replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 04:03 AM PST 

It all depends on you if are happy with current market rates which are still low, as per last 2 ys trend then it is OK.
I think only that person can be happy to sell at this time who got these plots in 9 lac each I mean ballot or Army. Only in Nov 2006 the
prices touched less than this but at that time Dollar was 57 So still those investors are at loss.
Conclusion is that price of Phase 7 should be higher than this in Near future. Investors are coming back only thing is Tension between India and Pakistan.

Ch Latif replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 05:08 PM PST 

thank you for your response,

Do you think that6 months the
prices will increase by a decent ammount or not. I need to sell in 6 months as I want to start a project else where but will iprices increase by then and how much.

Hassan Malik replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 05:46 PM PST 

Choudhary sahib the
prices will pick up very quickly during the next month and will remain rising with a steady pase for at least 4 more months.

Jameel replied on Saturday, January 17, 2009 08:59 PM PST 

You can wait 4,5 Months, If you need money in 6 Months. Good thing in DHA Plots is that you can sell them immediately if you sell 1 to 1.5 Lac less than Market price. It does not mean that you necessarily wait for May. You make your mind to sell at certain realistic level and if yo get then sell it immediately no matter it is Feb or April. But now it is clear that Jan is better than Dec so Trend may continue for a while
