Is it good or bad to have a plot on the boundry wall, considering that behind the boundry wall is the land for another housing society - a good reputable name(and not a village or a graveyard)?

STRANGER replied on Tuesday, October 12, 2010 06:24 AM 

It is good,you can have a door on the other side as well,
and can enjoy the name of two good reputed housing societies on the same time on the same location.
Bravooooo

agr iss se kuch nehain hota then why rates ar the boundary is less than normal?

Boundry wall plots normally treat and develop in end and treat as society border. Major facilities and commercials are always given to first blocks. These blocks will also be very close to main entrance or main roads.

Making Back Door on the wall will not be allowed in most cases so no way that you can enjoy the facilities given by other societies.

To understand more if you have a plot on boundary wall of small industry, or Sui Gas. On the other side there is DHA 5. Do you think that you can make a door and enjoy DHA level ?

Brother STRANGER, i am a middle class guy whose last 10 years of hardwork in the job has finally enabled him to get a plot on installments in DHA phase 8 and incidentally it happens to be on the boundry wall.

It might look futile to you, but for an ordinary man like me, its important to know if paying all these installments through the "sweat of my brow" for next 3 years will make any sense or should i just sell it off to buy at a better place right now.

I hope you understand the PERSPECTIVE Now.

Dear Salman,

i beg your pardon,
my attention was not to hurt but still i believe,that was not a question to ask,as that is only a comment sense.

I am extremely sorry,please forgive me brother

It is not bad if already developed and you know the ground realities, usually they are sold bit cheaper than average plots, For living they are good but purely for investment should avoid as these are not quick sell.
On Boundary Plots are discouraged in market the only reasons are, Till possession available Boundary plots have uncertainty, Like usually they can be smaller or bigger, Not purely rectangular in shape and security risks are involved if behind is open place. As on map all are plots are considered same size so Boundary buyer keeps margin of these uncertainties.
Once plot is developed and possession is available and good society is on the Back then it no harm in buying, But as it still carries the "tag" of being boundary so price is about 5 to 10% cheap.

Thank you Mr. Habib for a very comprehensive reply. It indeed is very helpful in my decision.

Basic facilities like shopping centre, club, mosque etc. are provided at central place and are away from boundry plots so cheaper and difficult to sell.
