DHAI Overseas Sector

Dear DHAI Experts:
I just want to know why the price of DHAI overseas sector are much higher (1 Kanal=USD85K as per DHAI website) as compared to recently introduced DHA valley overseas block (8M=USD12K). How far are these sectors from ISB highway? On the otherhand DHAI Ph2 Ext files are being sold at 9-20 lac per Kanal without any development charges.
Your input are greatly appreciated.
Regards
Saifee

Bahria Town Lahore population map.

There are still about 5-70 plots which have construction started but have not been shaded in yet.

arsalan replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 09:37 PM PST 

This shows the number of houses constructed and being constructed.

chamo replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 11:28 PM PST 

What do you mean by 5 - 70 plots, where construction has started but you have not highlited them in the map.You mean another 70 need to be highlited in this map.Please clarify and must say good effort.

arsalan replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 11:32 PM PST 

yes I meant 50-70 more then the presently highlighted.

A big hug from me for this effort. Something others can follow

Hussain Kaisrani replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 05:04 PM PST 

Arslan Sahib!
By producing these map here, you have provided a great service. Please accept my heartiest Thanks in this regard.
Hope you will not mind if I say both of these maps are yet in process of CHANGE. Though these make many things clear for us but friends are requested NOT to make decision of your buying or selling considering this map.
I have seen the sketch of latest edition of Sector C, Bahria Town map which have different changes in it.
Thanks Again.

Hussain Kaisrani replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 05:12 PM PST 

Sorry for mistyping in your name arsalan Sahib.

chamo replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 05:46 PM PST 

Kaisrani sab, when you say both of these maps are in process of change, you mean we can expect some change in Sector - B also, as one of these maps is for Sector - B. Please clarify.

arsalan replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 08:01 PM PST 

I want to thank everyone for such positiveness and hugs all around :). There is a lot of construction activity in Usman Block, the new 10 marla cuttings in Shaheen block and the 7 or so houses under construction in Sector C have not been highlighted in the given map. A total of 3.25 lac approximately needed to be paid to BT in the shape of charges before the commencement of construction.

arsalan replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 08:10 PM PST 

Hussain Kaisrani bhai I am waiting for your long post on BT, kindly post it.

tzk replied on Sunday, November 9, 2008 07:47 AM PST 

Arsalan & Kaisrani

Arsalan thanks for the map. It is a great effort but it raises a question. I asked Husain Kaisrani a few days ago and he told me that there is not much construction in Ghori block but a lot in shaheen.

By looking at this map, i dont fin d much difference. The difference in number of houses is not much.

Can you please elaborate?

DHA is asking for 27000rs as member ship fee per person not per plot.if u transfer ur plot to another person he again has to pay 27000 rs to DHA to become a member.
not only that u have to pay 1500rs for 5 marlas and 3000rs for 8 marlas as file opening fee after which file willbe opened for 2 months. in those two months u can trasfer and sell ur plot. after 2 months u again have to pay that fee.

Those who bought these plots for short term profit are in trouble as the first installment will be due in no time which is 55000 minimum

sleepless_in_islamabad replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 03:03 PM PST 

heard that you can pay the membership fees in installment, is it true? Has anyone paid the installment yet? What about the membership form? And what is the benefit of being a member to DHA? I mean, what the non-refundable processing fees for? And I bet the membership fees in non-refundable too and fat lotta good this membership fees will do!! If this gets me membership to the Jacandra Club.. then it makes sense!

Akram replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 11:47 AM PST 

Why are you involving yourself in this big discussion. people will show their abilities and give lengthy lessons. You are not sucking the people blood. No one will give you proper guidelines. But truely speaking, I have noticed in my life that people who are giving big big lessons on Sood, and found them in any part of their life involve in Banking interest bsiness.
They are giving instruction but they are themselves zero.

Sheraz replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 12:27 PM PST 

Please dont finger the Mullas. You can search this topic here already.

Mohsin replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 12:45 PM PST 

In theory the tax you are paying is for the services you are getting from Government. Nothing to do with Haram or Halal. Whereas Soon (National saving schemes etc) are all Haram.

It is forbidden in Islam to even give Sadaqa from Haram money and similarly all taxes must not be paid from haram money. Do not support any scheme which is dealing in Haram even if you are getting losses. Pay Zakat and Sadaqat honestly and purely for Allah Taala's sake and not for show off and not to get something in return from the needy.

If all property holders of this forum pay their Zakat honestly no one will remain poor in this country Insha Allah

Habib replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 01:43 PM PST 

God have given us certain guideline and you should interpret by your own wisdom, Knowlege and take arguments from Ulma see their point of view but then decide yourself.
God want to save us from all finacial system that is based upon Exploitation and Zulm No matter it is sood, or trade or agreement, I give you an example in UAE, You know here the right of expatriates are limited and there is always a sword of Visa renewal on their head, and they have to take signatures from their Kafeel many times a year.
Here there had been Practice of Taxi business, local will goto bank he will not invest monay or any thing gets a Taxi on Instalment , Gives to Pathan driver and tells him
1.You are reponsible for paying Instalment
2.You are supposed to pay me this much Money per Month
3.Car insurance is all you coast
4.All minataince is your headache
5. When Bank instalment will finish you will add equilat amount to section 2.
Now poor Pathan driver has To "drive" 6 hours a day for instalment, 5 houre a day for Fuel and Miantinace and Now if he want some living he will have to drive another 5 hours more.
Such that poor man have to work about 15,16 Hours a day. And arab is making money in Home without hassel or investment or whatsoever.
If income of that Arab is Haram or Halal you can continue discussion 1500 ys and you will not reach any conclusion using sterotyped Ulma.
All the systems based of Zulm no matter Trade, or Sood or law, are Haram. And and what is Zulam has been told to you by God in Inside Your brain when you was created. See Surat Ul Balad [it refers to Two ways Given to you], If you think depositing the money in National saving is no doing any Zulm to ther and helping your Govt it should not be haram.
Coming to Electricty Bill Govt is still providing you at about 70% cost, they are not over charging you. Energy is really very expensive.

Syed replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 05:13 PM PST 

Yes it is correct that Zulam is the main curse, and it is very important that muslim should come forward and promote Islamic Banking. It is very much allowed in Islam that two partners work together one should use his brain/service and other should use his capital.Only thing is that they should share the profit as well as loss, and there are many ways you can make the agreements, it is also not necessary that both should have 50-50% share it could be of different ratios. We should study these ways of various ventures and should also promote these. Unfortunately these ways has not been taught in our country and common man have have very little knowledge about them.

Well said Mr. Habib. replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 06:58 PM PST 

Mr Habib the words you have written "God has given us guideline and we should interpret by our own widom" are really admirable and of great importance. But the fact is that many people who say that national schemes are based on sood don't use their wisdom in fact they believe in wisdom of so called Mullahs. Those people are programmed. Any one who has faith and believe in himself is achieved little bit of peace.

limo replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 07:09 PM PST 

Dear Zero, you can purchase a plot, construct a house over it, sometimes two portions and rent it out. Thus you can have regular monthly income, that would be purely halal and you will be in a better position to face Allaf in the doomsday.

hak replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 08:03 PM PST 

Habib, unfortunately we people take our religion very casually. We are Muslims with very bleak knowledge about Islam.If asked to recite a page of Quran, we would make hundreds of mistakes in pronunciation. And you are guiding people to interpret shariah with their own wisdom. Not fair at all.Our wisdom will always find the course that is easy and better suits us and that is what is happening today.

Muslim replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 08:22 PM PST 

In many Ayats Allah claimed that, He has given this Quran in the easy and clear language so that, it will not be difficult to understand by the ordinary human beings.

Quran 44: 58 Verily, We have made This Quran easy in the tongue, in order that they may give heed.

No matter which translated Quran we read, the Quranic materials remain the same to us and every sentence is self explanatory and it does not take a rocket scientist to comprehend what is the message Allah wanted to transmit for mankind. Yet, some Muslims try to have their personalized “divine guidance” based on their own preferences. Allah has given us the Noble Quran which is just like a Map which is supposed to be followed as prescribed. Now if we have to use our own navigational system (wisdom) to find out the correct course of action then what is no use of this Map, the Noble Quran. If this has been the case then any body can find what he is looking for in that book, thus can have a midway by believing in some and rejecting others. For such people The Holy Quran tells us.

Quran 004.150 "Those who believe in some but reject others": And (those who) wish to take a course midway,- 004.151 They are in truth (equally) unbelievers; and we have prepared for unbelievers a humiliating punishment.

Interest on money has been forbidden very clearly by Allah. No matter what wisdom or guidelines you use to make it lawful on the pretext of present age’s financial system. The religion Islam was revealed for eternity not for the 7th century only.

hak replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 11:22 PM PST 

I speak of myself,only after going through almost 4 pages (A4 size) of Tafheem ul Quran by Moulana Moudoodi, i could get an idea about what exactly Allah ST said in small surah "Al Asar".Today itself Ulemas are trying to figure out the meanings of alif, laam, meem and no one is able to tell for sure what is the hidden wisdom behind these kind of words, only Allah ST knows.

MQ replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 12:18 AM PST 

How about using our wisdom, in our health matters; no it is matter of life and death; we have to go to the best sepecialist.

We are very careful in the matter of this temporary word but in Deen most of us want to use our wisdom.
If our creator has forbidden Sood, we have bring conviction in our heart that it is not good for me and the society; Whether I understand it or not.
May Allah guide us all and keep us on the straight path.

Please get yourselves informed also about how much gross profit is being earned by these so called Islamic banks from customer's deposits. These banks are paying very little percentage ratio to its customers from gross profits. They have made billions from these innocent customers. But the poor customer is happy that it is earning halal. Pitty on us.

Do not fed up from DHAI, do not feel suffered a lot mental stress.
You know why you feel stress and suffered because you hear daily different sounds (rang rang kee awazain) you read different peoples different sound. Did DHAI tell you any thing, why they should tell you without any updates, when there is update you will receive by mail or on news paper, thora subar"

Dr.Rasheed Aghai replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 05:05 PM PST 

Dear Friends,

Dear abo ali sahab, i agree with you but if you see the web site of DHAI since last 7 days, it is completely hopeless as it is changing every day, as first day they mentioned the ballot result of SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE OF OVESEAS BLOCK ( i have saved copy ), second day they changed it by UNSUCCESSFUL CANDIDATES of DHA valley overseas applied ( so can you say, it is sense). So it is my impression that DHAI is absulately lacking in professional ethics.

Thanks AboAli, i have download the form. It needs 2 members Name, Tel Numbers, Membership num: & address.

---About Barack Hussein Obama II ---

Barack Hussein Obama II has won the 44th presidential election of the United States of America. He is now a president elect and will take office of presidency in January 2009.

His father's name is Barack Hussein Obama Sr., a Muslim from Kenya and his mother's name is Ann Dunham, a white American from Wichita, Kansas. He is 47 years old, born in August 4, 1961. His parents met in 1960 in Hawaii while attending University of Hawaii at Manoa. He was only two years old when his parents were separated and later divorced. His father died in 1982 at the age of 46.

His mother later married an Indonesian Muslim, Lolo Soetoro in 1966 and they moved to Jakarta, Indonesia where in 1970 the couple had a daughter, Maya Kassandra Soetoro. They were divorced in 1980. Lolo Soetoro died in 1987 at the age of 51.

Obama had his early upbringing and education in Indonesia and later in Hawaii. His mother died in 1995 at the age of 52. Obama is a Christian, he was baptized at Trinity United Church of Christ in 1988. He will be the first US president of African descent (black).

Obama graduated from Columbia University, New York in 1983 and later Harvard Law School, Massachusetts in 1991.

Obama met Michelle Robinson in June 1989 in Chicago and they got married in 1992. They have two daughters, Malia Ann, born in 1998 and Natasha (Sasha), born in 2001.

Barack Obama was against the war in Iraq from an early stage, however he is expected to take a tough stand if Federally Administered Tribal Areas in Pakistan continue to provide sanctuaries to militants. In order to stop the spread of global terrorism he has favored taking action in FATA without the support of Pakistani government.

Jameel replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 02:28 AM PST 

Other than this Political issues, after Obama for at least one or Two quarters US stock and US dollar is expected to surge as gamblers will take a chance to swing the Market. This will make Dollar more expensive for countries like Pakistan.

Assalam-O-Alaikum,

Personalities don't really matter in the west; as they have clear cut policies and party agendas on all the prevailing issues and work accordingly to achieve those goals. As far as Pakistan is concerned, it doesn't really make any difference for us; whether it is Obama or would have been McCain, all we have to do is ... and beg for mercy despite having a million strong army with atomic bombs at our disposal; shame upon all of us Pakistanis for being so Be Ghairat (I am sorry for not being able to find an appropriate word in English)!!!!

Why should we waist our time in other state's politics, while we failed to make the right choice.

Dear Moderators

Please block those using abusive language at ths forum. We strongly condemn spreading negetive behaviors and dirty language as some of these people are poluting every other thread.

Can America kill its way to victory?

Isn't talking and negotiating a better solution?
The BIG question is whether Obama will continue the failed policy of attempting to kill Ameirca's way to victory, or will grown men from both sides sit down together at a table and rationally discuss what is going on.

There will be STRONG STRONG pressure from the neo-cons and zionists to continue to kill and destabilize Muslims. They want no part of discussions and peace.

A.Q. Khan replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 12:23 PM PST 

fourvoyagers rightly used the abusive words explaining the exact ignorant and begging position of our pakistanis. without such elaborative critisism and with people like proud pakistani (another failed case) negating it no change is expected to happen in pakistan's fate.

Dear CMY

Are you that much busy??? Oh! Come on…. It has been long since we heard from you regarding the captioned above. Chota mota, here & there tou chalta hay … & is OK …… but it will be beneficial if you can give a detailed view in general & applying the same to different housing schemes/ societies as a reference case.

Especially for expats; we need to know what are the local investors expecting & how will the market react?

CMY replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 11:58 AM PST 

Perdesi bhai need two more days only?

fourvoyagers replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 05:03 PM PST 

Assalam-O-Alaikum,

It sounds like Mr. CMY is on your pay roll; I mean the worst of the worst bosses don't speak in that tone. Besides, even the extreme fools are seeing the writing on the wall that the markets have gone haywire and there is no sign of recovery in the foreseeable future. Go figure it out yourself!!!

Proud_Pakistani replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 06:41 PM PST 

Negetive thinking promotes violance. Asking CMY for his expert opinion is has nothing wrong in it. Fools does jump on to the conclusions without applying their minds positively.

A.Q. Khan replied on Friday, November 7, 2008 12:43 PM PST 

CMY cannot predict or forecast any market picture at this stage, but since he is nice enough not to say NO and so finally even if he does write something, it wont be true, whatever he forecasted in the early days of this website and later did not materialize. Its not just him, forecast reports written few months ago, by all the great market analyst and economists of the world, went by the drain. Here's my advise, a businessman sees every bad news as an opportunity. Follow this rule, and invest in your stock markets, now is the best time, tadawul or kse or any other markets. Property has lesser chance to recover faster than stocks.

It is located in Bahria Town phase 8, Rawalpindi/Islamabad. It’s almost all dues are paid in advance including all installments and town development charges except Rs. 97,445, which purchaser could submit to Bahria Town till May, 2009.
Bahria Town’s set price, which includes all installments and town development charges, is Rs. 909,000 for ten Marla plot in phase 8 while my submitted amount is Rs. 812,000. Save yourselves from the inconvenience of submitting installments.
There are identical developments in each block of phase 8. Bahria Town administration ensured me that development work in all blocks will complete simultaneously. Bahria Town promised to give possession of phase 8 plots during this year. Considering all factors it is general expectations that it would be good investment for the future.

I really like this statement.

Khaan replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 02:45 AM PST 

Please let us know the plot number and sector/block. If its in the initial blocks I'll be interested.

BT replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 05:10 AM PST 

This guy Tahir Jamil had been sending e-mails with this BT-8 plot with demand of 10 Lakh, and an offer of 5% commission.

Now he has an offered his plot at 9 lakh (8 + 97,445), but the actual worth of his plot is not more than 7.5 lakh with everything paid.

AS replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 02:11 PM PST 

Dear! Good plots do not require such a lengthy introduction as being done in this case. If really it is such an attractive deal then why are you selling it. Please do not transfer the load to some one else. There are hundreds of plots of BT Phase 8 available in Pindi Market on very lesser
prices. Possesion is not expected before 2011.
Thanks

Thanks M Ali,

I called DHAI representative (First Choice Real Estate) here in London and according to them DHA overseas block is different and all applicants who applied to that all will get one and they will start informing on or after 15th November.

I remember there was advert on GEO here in UK, First it was about DHA Valley when applications date was closed for DHA Valley then they started advert about DHA Overseas Block, where only Overseas Pakistanis was allowed to apply (with Valid work permit or Overseas NIC) and last date was 25th September to apply and in that advert they mentioned balloting will held on 15th november which First Choice Real Estate confirmed today as well when I called them.

Rest Allah knows better but one thing is Clear DHAi did nothing to inform us.

Kind Regards,
Fayyaz

Dr.Rasheed Aghai replied on Thursday, November 6, 2008 12:15 AM PST 

Dear friends,

No confusion now, it is clear now that "NO BALLOTING FOR DHA VALLEY OVERSEAS BLOCK."

DHAI web site mention it clearly now & recent balloting result is only for DHA valley + Overseas who applied from outside the pakistan but for DHA valley only ( not for DHA valley overseas block).

Though there was some confusion in start when DHA web site mentioned worngly about ballot result as DHA valley overseas block but next day they change the content on web site 7 now every thing is clear.

All who had applied for DHA valley overseas block , will recieve the confirmed letter very soon.
