MY REPLY TO MM & AKHAR
DHA can collapse but not Bahria Town. Because Bahria town build smaller sector and portion and then launch it like abubakar block umar block and ali block in Saffari Valley phase-8. their prices are stable beacuase they have finished the work very rapidly. 60% of Bahria phase-8 (not saffary valley) is carpetted in 3 years. that area is about 25000 kanals. the remaining 15000 kanal in under development.
so their prices are stable.
now look at DHA. they anounced the DHA PH-2 EXT. DHA VALLEY AND DHA OVERSEAS, DHA PH-1 EXT. THIS AREA IS MORE THAN RAWALPINDI. AND THEY HAVE LESS MONEY TO BUILD IT. BECASUE PEOPLE DON'T BELEVIE THEN NOW.
MANY MEBMERS DON'T PAY THEM THE ADDITIONAL DEVEOPMENT CHARGES.
SO, THEY HAVE LAKE OF MONEY. OR THEY DON'T WANT TO START THE WORK. MAY BE TO GET INTEREST ON THEIR DEPOSITS.
ANY HOW AN AREA EQUAL TO RAWALPINDI AND MORE THAN 2 LAK PLOT ARE NOT EASY TO BUILT EVEN IF THEY USE THEIR WHOLE RESOURCES OF MONEY.
IT WILL TAKE MINIUM 10 YEARS FOR ONLY PHASE-2 EXT AND DHA-VALLY TO COMPLETE THE DEVELOPMENT.
NOW AS PER PROPERTY INVESTMENT POINT OF VIEW MORE THAN 2 LAK PLOT ARE AVAILABLE FOR SALE IN DHA ISLAMABAD DIFFENECE PHASES IN LOSS BUT THIER IS HARD TO FIND A BUYER FOR THESE PLOTS

REPLY FOR MR. GHULAM SARWAR

I AM SINCERE TO MY JOB AND MY WORK ASSIGNED TO ME.
BUT IT IT NOT IN MY JOB DESCRIPTION TO PROTECT THE DHA ISLAMABAD ILLIGLE WAY OF WORKING PROCEDURE OR THEIR POLICIES. BECAUSE THIS IS OPEN FORUM AND WE ARE FREE TO DISCUSS ANY PROPERTY SCHEME.
AND I AM A FREE PAKISTANI AND NOT AFRAID TO GIVE TRUE INFORMATION AND I WANT TO GIVE THE PEOPLE CORRECT INFORMATION SO THAT THEY CAN'T SUFFUR IN FINANCIAL LOSS.
HOW MANY PEOPLE GOT BENIFIT IN INVESTING THEIR MONEY IN DHA ISLAMABAD?

THE ANALYSIS I HAVE GIVEN IS A FACT LIKE SHINGING SUN IN THE DAY.
IF YOU PROVE ME WRONG THAN I WILL AGREE WITH YOU.

MY REPLY TO MR. ZAIN

I DID'T GET LOSS IN ANY DHA ISLAMABAD PROJECT. I HAVE NO PLOTS IN DHA ISLAMABAD PROJECT. BECAUSE I KNOW THE SATUATION. IF I WILL INVEST IN PROPERY I WILL PREFER CDA ISLAMABAD SECTORS D-12, G-15, E-16, E-17
WHICH IS NEAR TO COMPLETION.

NOW COME TO DHA ISLAMBAD ANALYISIS OF MR. ZAIN.
YOU SAID THAT FUTURE OF DHA ISLAMBABD PROJECT IS VERY BRIGHT.
FIRST LOOK AT THE TODAY PRICES OF THIS WEBSITE WHICH IS TRUE AND ACTUAL.

DHA Islamabad Phase 2 extension lowest price certificate file is available at 7.80 to 7.90 Lacs today while at start sector A~K file rate was 36 laks. sector L~R rate was 14 laks at start.

DHA Valley Islamabad open files 5 marla 5 paid sells at loss of = 61000 to 65000. open files 8 marla 5 paid sells at loss of = 84000 to 92000". DHA Valley file sale is also in loss. more you pay installment more loss will you get.

Now come to the progress of DHA Phase-2 ext. none of any Road of any sector is built after sale of their files in 2005. Now it is 2010 tomorow. only approach road that is EXPRESSWAY is in progress and it will take one and half month minimum because their are may bridges to be built. any other street of any sector is not built.
if you come to site of project and then show me any road which only earth work is started i will agree with you.

secondly now come to DHA Valley project.
One small pocket of land about 500 kanal area in progress from one year and still under development.
it does not means that they have started the work on whole area of valley which is more than 1 lak kanal.
So,you can imagine how much time it will take for completion. it will take minium 10 years. then DHA will say that pay for development charges due infulation.

AS PER MY INFORMATION ONLY DHA VALLEY MAP IS ISSUED TO MARKET. THE 50% OF LAND IS FULL OF PLOTS. WHILE LOOKING TO GROUND CONDITION ONLY 30% OF LAND IS ABLE TO DEVELOP THE PLOTS.
COMPLETION OF MAP DOES NOT MEAN THAT PROJECT IN COMPLETED. WHAT PEOPLE WILL DO WITH MAP IF THEIR PLOT IS NOT POSSESED OR HANDED OVER AT GROUND EVEN AFTER 10 YEARS.

Hmmm Interesting. Aside from the investment potential of DHA or the lack of it, I guess if they are going to ending up building even 20% of the files within the next 10 years it will be good in addressing the housing shortage in the country, it will allow many people to own a property of their own, and it will keep prices in check over the next 10 years. Besides profit there is a social element to housing.

forger EVERYTHING and invest in G-15, E-16/17 - Fully developed and handed over to alloties. 100% profit even in war

Interesting, you keep posting this (please limit your thoughts to one post only). May be you are a disgruntled employee who did get the piece of pie or may be you are sincere to all of us and breaking this news NOW.
We overseas need someone on ground or someone competent like CMY to provide thoughts/analysis on DHA Islamabad.
I personally own a plot in Commoners block (DHA II Ext), bought in 2006 and just paid another round of so called "development charges", although it was all paid off plot :)

I am not a disgruntled employee. i have a good position in DHA ISLAMABAD and i also got one plot in and sold it in 2 months and i invested in other place not in DHA islamabad. i did not got loss. but now same scheme plot holders are in loss now.
you have also plot in Ex-Commoners town. is is started in 2005 and still no possession uptill now. then why are you blamming me now.
Qasim is 100% right. one should invest in Islamabad new sectors for investment. CMY will also agree with me. You can check daily price update from CMY and read my analysis on rates of DHA Islamabad then u will understand.

MY REPLY TO MR. AKHTAR
if you want safe exit from dha valley or ph-2 ext. then sell your plot or file as soon as possible because in next 3 years there is no chance of increase in prices.
or if you want to hold your file or plot and want to build house then wait for 10 years atleast.

Saleem Awan Sahib thanks for your deep analysis and providing valuable information about DHAI. Please also comment on DHAI Phase I Ext, its present status and when it is scheduled to be completed etc. Thanks in advance

Thanks Saleem Awan. I am not in Pakistan so can't provide on ground reality. You may be right or wrong, only time could tell. Alot of ppl have invested in DHA because of repo they built from projects in Lahore and Karachi and ppl hope that DHA Islamabad/Rawalpindi delivers on promises they made to common man.
