* G-14 & G-13 but please check for the sub sectors of G-14, I think at least one of the sub sectors of G-14 is not good for buying. Similarly in G-13 be alerted for the railway line facing plots, they are very bad for buying!
* DHAI phase-2: Good sectors are B, C, A, H and all others sectors are also coming up now.
*DHAI Phase-2 Commoners Town: The declared sectors only.
*DHAI Phase-2 GT road front side commercial plots INSIDE DHA-2. You can get now one commercial plot measuring 4 Marla from 55 to 65 Lacs. The standard plaza, built on these plots with the basement, would give you at least 1.5 lacs monthly rent. The banks and other companies are renting as this is prime location, alongside GT road.
* Stay away from BT as BT is surely good but then always there are rumors and allegations on the management and you would find yourself in a constant tension even if BT keeps proving good.
*DHA Homes: The Turkish Company has started the construction and if you can go see for yourself the location. Now they are selling at 2.5 lacs in loss but soon they will break even and then start making profit but remember! DHA will not deliver them on time!!!
Also it must be remembered that the DHA Villas in sector-F are delayed but DHA is paying rents to the villa owners! RS 35,000 (some are getting 25,000) is being paid to them on monthly basis.
No other scheme in Islamabad is good for the time being.

I heard G-16 is about to give possession soon, possibly in this qtr, i think its good time to buy in G-16 as G-15 is fully developed and people are living there, I bought a plot here couple of years back, not sure how much will that worth (G-16, Plot number 343, Corner, Front Green Belt & G-15)

Dear Expat Advisor and Mian Nadeem Sahib

Please confirm if DHAI-2 commercial plots of 4 marla on GT Rd. are in fact priced at 55-65 lacs? I thought they were much higher...
