(55154)

In order to benefit from the expertise of our Property Dealers, it will be an excellent idea to create a dummy portfolio fund of 3 crores to be invested as per the recommendations of each known property dealers. This fund will be invested in dummy plots in various housing & other schemes .
I'll appreciate if one panel consisting of CMY & other learned persons dealing in Real Estate should prepare guidelines viz different sectors (commercial , residential etc) at different locations & of different sizes .Panel should start monitoring the index. Property dealers can change their strategies & recommend alternatives plots Performance can be weekly or monthly updated.
For realestate lovers, it would serve as a guideline for their futur investment.

Why create new real estate games, when one can indulge in gambling many other ways like online poker, or cricket live betting etc etc..... C'mon guys! is this what we have come down to.....speculation, gambling, things that are intellectually stimulating but may not be so morally?

I wish that Pakistanis start building businesses, start enterprizing loose structures of commercial activities, invest in LIVE businesses rather than put their money in things that may or may not exist, sit on their backsides and wait for some innocent 'local or overseas idiots' to walk into the trap and provide them with their profits.

Use this website and other real estate websites to research to buy and develop. Pakistan needs value addition, not trading the raw material. Stop warning 'dead money'. Start small business, however small might they be!

Good luck!

It seems my brother (out of respect I cannot write his name)has taken me totally wrong or did not understood. First of all Real Estate is in itself an industry & major portion of work force is working in this Industry.The main purpose is to have competitition between Property Dealers, so that the investor is able to identify the best performers over a period of time- valuation based upon realistic data gathered for each society by the Panel. Investors can benefit from their thinking process . In all leading international educational institutions/professional firms , these type of studies are done to educate fresh graduates as well the general public benefits.

Understood sir. Howsoever sophisticated it may sound, how different is real estate speculation from stock market, forex market, bond market, list goes on and on...? Yes it is an industry, but so are gambling and prostitution!

How is property speculation different from Black Jack or Poker or any other games, the only difference being that people are trying to make a living out of this gambling!

I was trying to underline the importance of saving the youth of Pakistan from gambling full stop, be it betting, stock market, forex or property.

Hopefully noone on this portal thinks that this property wheeling and dealing is not gambling!
