Furnished accomodation in Lahore,

(57832)
Friday, April 16, 2010 11:41 AM 

Dear brothers,
I live abroad and would like to come to Pakistan for admission of my son in Engineering University.
We would try different options like NUST, UET, GIKI.
My son needs to prepare for entry test in KIPS. For a family to stay in Lahore, (I am not from Lahore) I need to rent a furnished house or flat or portion for about 3 months. Could any visitor of this site help me find such option of accomodation? I am planning to be in Lahore in the 2nd week of June 2010.
Would appreciate a serious and sincere advice and guidance.

Regards,

Dear Mr. Ashraf,
I have no idea. But please go on and quote. My aim is to meet the goal for which I am ready to compromise. If you wish, you can send me a detailed email as well.
Regards

@ashraf bhi go and find some International company that can give you this much for luxury lifestyle

I think Amar is looking for average size accomodation with budget range around 50k per month

Amar sahib, my suggestion to you is to go to a guest house for a couple of days and search for renatl when you are in Lahore. You can find a furnished single portion (like an apartment) with all the amenities for 40-50 thousand rupees a month. I will also recommend to mention to the rental agent that you are visiting from Karachi. Whatever you say NEVER mention the six letter word A-B-R-O-A-D. If you do that, there will be no shortage of the Asfrafs who will overcharge you way over the market.

@Ashraf. Ashraf sahib, kuch khuda ka khauf karo, the economy is no longer as good overseas as you would imagine. Lets see 300 thousand rent, the most expensive brand new 1 kanal house in DHA rents for 80,000-100,000 lac. That must be some very nice furniture that you are renting for over 200,000 per month.

Dear All who responded to my query and need!
Mr. Ashraf surely mentioned an amount to, most probably, push me away. Now when I am in this situation, I realize that such options are very hard to find in our country if not possible. My choice is to remain near Johar Town area.
Dear Info and Salim khan sahib, your sincere advices are taken and I would approach from this angle as well.
Thank you all and I still await any further advices from friends on this site.
Regards,

Dear Rizwan sahib,
The NUST test centre for candidates in Lahore is already declared as Punjub University campus at Wahdat road. The registration for GIKI is not open yet but I believe they would also have such option. This is something very good on part of these universities.
Thank you for your concern and recommendations.
