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.

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. |

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. |

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. |

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 |
