attention atiq raja sahib
alhamdullah u r come back now i felt ur absence a lot.i want to take some advice from u regarding investment in DHAi phase 2ext.i want to buy 2 plots in phase 2ext one for 7 to 8 years and 1 is for 3 years investment.i want to ask about 3 years investment.if i buy a plot in 9.20 lacs what u see the price after 3 years.because after 3 years i want to investment money in business so kindly tell me what u see price after 3 years whether i should invest for 3 years or not and over all for 7 to 8 years how is this investment.when development will get start.please must reply so that i could take some decision.thanks

atiq raja. replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 07:56 PM PST 

very simple new sectors one kanal dha price with all dues clear is around 40 lack rupees,so phase11ext plot potential is more than 40 lac rupees, example is commoner town,this town is part of phase2ext but its planning and development will not equal to phase2ext and price is around 40 lack,because around 65 percent development is completed,when officially development will start you will see the
prices will go up,at present there is not a single scheme of cda and schemes around isb/pindi for quick return ax apt dha certificates and agocha11 because its location,the prices are less due to dha,because dha fficers are involves for purchasing dha certificates and agochsii plots and not giving proper ionfomation to members and dha web is also quit about this.

I wish to sell off my main boulevard corner plot of 8 marla in overseas valley DHI Islamabad in the end of November, mid December.

If interested please contact.

limo replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 11:01 PM PST 

Can you just put your demand here.Don't take me wrong, but i feel that the people who have won the recent DHI ballot and want to sell their plots off, wont get good response from the market.

akhtar replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 11:28 PM PST

Dollar Strong for no obvious reason

Dollar is very strong and major currencies are losing a lot against Dollar with no obvius reason. In 2000 when dollar was strong there were a strong reason of Dot com Boom, but what is reason now can any one tell,
UK Pund is 6 ys low against dollar and lost 20% value as Compared to its value in July,
Candian Dollar is worst loser, it lost about 30% Value as Comparted to last year aveage.
Euro is also down 25% as compared to its value in July.
Goto yaho finance and currencies and see these horrible graphs
I feel there are more than 50% investors from Canada UK and Europe so they must have not lost a lot investing in Pakistan, For eample Canadian Dollar holders are getting almost same [63 vs 64] Pak rupee against their Currency what they were getting one year Back in 2007.
This situation will directly effect Dubai realestae Market, Recently most of buyers in Dubai are European mostly from east europe, They have Booked on highest prices, and now they will have have to pay 30 to 35% More if Dollar stays here [Dollar always = 3.675 UAE Dhs].
If you are not losing and have some interest in Global economics, This is life time experience to see watching this economic strom.

Dr.Habeel replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 05:58 PM PST 

I don't think there will be a much impact on DUBAI Real estate because it is a different kind of market.Recently The Govt. has given unlimited guarantee to all depositors.This kind of bold support you will not find anywhere in the world.USD/Dirham rate is fixed no volatiliy.Due to various steps by the Govt.to encourage/support investors now uae is a heaven for investors.

Pardesi, Jeddah replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 06:24 PM PST 

The obvious reason for correction in US$ against other major currencies is that the disposable income everywhere has shrunk forcing to maintain daily consumption items; bulk of which are traded in US$. thus US$ is in demand again.

There are also possibilities (based on unconfirmed news) that international currency giants (in and out of US Govt.) are also gambling on US$ these days instead of Gold/oil/real estate/other currencies to artificially raise the value of US$. The argument is supported by analysts that recession in US economy/soaring loans on US Govt. & major institutions/War expenses/High costs of production as compared to cheaper imports cannot sustain the high value of US$ for a longer period.

Jameel replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 07:46 PM PST 

So Perdesi in your opinion, one should convert some of Capital to UK pound?? as I remember I bought UK Pound in 1999 in 6 UAE Dhs and now it is again to 5.85, In between it had been as high as 8.1 UAE Dhs. In last 10 years at least 9 ys UK pound was expesive than this. i guess best thing may be to wait for US elctions, If Obama wins the US dollar will surge even more but should not be able to sustain for long time. As real economic problems will stay, to decrease soaring deficit US will have to weaken the dollar.
I think even now dollar is overvalued but trend will continue for some more months.

Reader replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 03:33 AM PST 

There could be different logical explanations for the events happening these days. But Jameel has correctly described it as 'economic storm' and in storms, panic sets in. This is what is happening now. Its just chaos and perceptions/preferences change quickly. People are trying to find refuge some where. That is why one day stock markets move up 7-8% and fall 10% the next day. Actually no one is sure where to be now.

Khan replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 08:29 AM PST 

Dollar is strong for a reason and a good reason.

Traders are fleeing the Euro b/c the EU’s credit crisis problems are even worse than what’s going on in USA. America screwed up but so did a lot of other countries. Some people are speculating that the Euro/USD rate will go as low as 1:1. There is enormous pressure on the European Central Bank to lower interest rates in the next few months.
Also there is believe that when everything is sattled and this global financial crises come to an end. USA will be the first to recover from this crisis, making US dollar more attreactive.

For short and medium term US Dollar is will rise against most other curriecies.

Naveed Yaseen replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 01:54 PM PST 

I believe US dollar is over-valued.

In last few years it has lost lot of core in several different aspects like,,,

- trade deficit
- currency injection (politely said 'liquidity injection')
- official public debt
- foreign ownership US liabilities (like US dollars and securities)
- valuation meltdown
- dominance flip

The last factor is especially important. Dominance usually flips within a few stable states, say head or tail, with no stable continuum in-between.

United States, even in most optimistic scenario presuming it gets the speculated leadership that can successfully handle ongoing confrontations, it will still not regain the dominance in global political and economic affairs it had ten years ago. It may still continue to be a considerable power, but it will not be alone super-power anymore.

That is because some policies of last few years have done some irreversible damage. And the repairable damage, presuming the best handling by new leadership, will still take some time to repair.

And that is also because global political and economic environment today is different than ten years ago. And in coming ten years this difference would only increase.

Pardesi, Jeddah replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 08:20 PM PST 

This discussion reminds me concerns in early 90s by some analysts predicting adverse global situation from 2015 onwards.

By now you (Mr. Jameel)must have reached to the conclusion that its not the question of Sterling or Euro rather revert to the principle, not to put all eggs... & another priciple, not to trade in currency for the sake of gains; maintaining value of money by keeping your accumulated cash in FCY for future investment is something outrightly different vs. trading in currencies for gains & should not be mixed-up with each other.

To strengthen what Naveed said, political & economic system is based on the nation's behavior. Skepticism & suspicions give negetive impact (as in case of Pakistan rumours are spread through ficticious SMSs). Now with the change in believes over free-market economy people are calling their volatile investments back causing loss of PRODUCTIVITY. Sarcozy is calling for Govts. intervention but I am still doubtful for how long Govts' artificail respiration will sustain.

KAR replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 10:33 PM PST 

The dollar will continue to be strong against all the major currencies for a simple reason - Oil. As you all are aware that global trade of oil is done only in dollars so most of the nations especially emerging nations keep their imports to bear minimum except for oil imports. Therefore, the currency they require the most during downturns is dollar as compared to any other currency and gold. Check the historic value of USD vs. Gold, GBP and Oil; USD is always inversely proportional to those.

In my opinion the same trend will continue for a year or so till the current fiscal crisis is behind us. In recession it has nothing to do with the state of American economy but the currency required most for trading. However, for some reason if OPEC decides to switch to other currency (which by the way Iran and Venezuela are trying for some time) USD will be worth nothing.

Arif replied on Monday, October 27, 2008 10:31 AM PST 

Naveed,
You are either an ideologue or you read a few dollar bear economists and made a summary here. Nobody benefits from statements such as "dollar is over valued" unless you specify when and how much will it correct. BTW, I didn't see you posting a message that
Lahore Real Estate is over priced in ? Or did you say China/Pakistan/Indian stock markets are over priced or that Yen is under priced in last few years? Dollar/Yen have been an easy short trade for hedgies for a long time to a degree where Euro/Gold/Oil all became over valued. Part of dollar strength is because of natural regression back to fundamental value of dollar. US currency at core is backed by its economy and like it or not, it is the biggest economy in the world and that is why Oil is traded in dollars because the biggest economy is the biggest consumer in the world.

In all crisis, losers keep looking back at what investments previously had great runs assuming that next boom cycle will be about same investments. It wouldn't. This is the official death of easy credit/money and with it, you have a real estate slow/flat cycle that may last 5-10 years. The days of dollar/yen carry trade for leveraged investments in commodities, real estate, emerging markets are over. The next era is going to be about green technology especially if Obama is elected. People are fixated over Oil/Plots/Gold/Euro which means these investments are still saturated.

Mr. CMY
Its kindly requested to include bahria town phase-8 price into your
list block wise. you are updating price of phase 9 which is far behind then phase 8 anyway.
it will be great help for phase 8 plot holders.why you dislike phase 8? or there is any other reason.

thanks for your great services

CMY replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 12:17 AM PST 

Ehsan bhai first we are not dealing in Bahria Town phase 8 and Bahria Town phase 9. Since
files are traded more frequently I could post rate update on daily bases. BUT since very few plots are sold bought in Lahore for Bahria Town phase 8 I am unable to update their rates daily. To be honest in Lahore our buying selling rates have only few thousands difference BUT in Islamabad Pindi buying and selling rates are quoted min 1 2 lacs apart. If I want to buy a plot it cost 5 lacs if I want to sell plot I will be told in pindi its worth only 4 lacs in this kind of situation I cant post accurate rates. I wish we were dealing in this scheme and post true buying selling rates but my friend its not possible for me to stay updated on every scheme in Pakistan. Our speciality is DHA Lahore and we try our best to serve our clints better in here. If Lahore Real Estate was actively trading in this BT phase 8 Rawalpindi I would update the rates on daily bases.

It is requested that dealers of Bahria Town phase 8 should update their rates here and do it more frequently.

ehsan replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 01:07 AM PST 

CMY Sahib'
thank you very much again for your detailed reply.i understand your rate
update system now. to be very honest i never met you but i feel you are someone i know pesonaly. i thnk this the trust you have earned all over. and this the reason we are asking you anything without hesitation. may Allah keep you happy and prosporus.

DHA Valley Balloting For Unsuccessful

Ad Type
For Sale
DHA Valley has publicized unsuccessful candidates list. Does somebody know what is the logic behind this? It seems to me that they wanted to hide the number of plots being allocated in this balloting at least. Any comments?

Reader replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 12:19 PM PST 

Or perhaps the list of unsuccessful candidates would have been much shorter.

abj replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 01:44 PM PST 

I copied and pasted the data from CMY's list on this site on an excel spreadsheet, and it totalled to exactly 5000 unsuccesful people. I doubt the successful list would be longer than that, but who knows. I guess we will find out soon. The 5000 unsuccessful even number is kinda sticky though, or maybe it had to do something on copy/paste or spreadsheet limitations.

I remember someone earlier on the local ballotting for the DHAI came up with some big number in fees. I took the mid point 175 dollars times 5000 and it came to $, about 7 crore rupees. Not that big of a deal for DHA as an organization. So the earlier math someone else did seems a little exagerated.

DHA Islamabad replied on Sunday, October 26, 2008 12:42 AM PST 

Why DHA Islamabad don't want to show you successful applicants list?

DHA Islamabad will now be able to add as many favorite people in winners list.

DHA Islamabad will now be able to hide number of winners.

DHA Islamabad will now be able keep minting money for them self by adding their own plots to winner list when ever they need money. All Halal and legal in their eyes.

DHA Islamabad have done very disgraceful act by releasing on losers names. One more bad act learned from Bahria Town partnership.

Bahria Town Lahore Overseas Block Categories C,D and Onwards

Is any body aware or any clue of the Overseas Lahore block categories C,D,E, so on. The installment payments for all of those categories have been completed long time ago but there is no announcement or news from Bahria Lahore Management. It looks Lahore office management (in laws) is bigger culprit than any other in Bahria. Any body know the fate of those categories? Thank you for the information.

CMY replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 01:08 AM PST 

Over 90% chances cat B C D and no exisiting plots in Bahria Town Lahore sector C will be shifted to Bahria Town project after Chinar Bagh on Riawind road Lahore.

Jameel replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 04:44 AM PST 

Prices of cars are increasing due to pak currency devaluation, You know 70% parts are imported.

M. Ali replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 11:14 AM PST 

Thank you Bro. CMY for your views.
Bahria had sold all the categories by showing the
location of Overseas Block, which actually is Block A only. It will be an injustice to move them to a location on Raiwind Road, which is more than 15 Kms away from Thokar Niaz Baig. I know people who invested in this scheme considering a gated community along the canal.

CMY, I intend to invest around 30 lac in DHA-lahore for almost 4 to 5 years.Which DHA phase / block will give me fast and better return.

CMY replied on Saturday, October 25, 2008 01:16 AM PST 

DHA 8 Park view One kanal allocation file would be my choice. File would cost you near 32 lacs. Buyer pays 1.95 lacs for transfer costs to DHA and Govt. Add 1% commission for your dealer in addition to file and transfer cost.

Price immediately after ballot is expected to around 60 to 75 lacs including about 11 lacs development charges IF a ballot is held separately than DHA 8 proper and BEFORE proper DHA 8
files. Ballot is not announced yet but expected to be held this year.

What other options are avaiable to buy apart from Phase 7 in a same budget to build house in 2 to 3 yrs? I would like to make this plot adjustment in next 2 to 3 weeks. Please advise.
