Karachi, also known as ‘The City of Lights’, is the biggest, and arguably the liveliest, city in Pakistan. With a population of over 20 million, this city has a very busy lifestyle. People work here in different shifts round the clock. Karachi generates large amounts of revenue on a regular basis, remarkably contributing to the economy of Pakistan. It is also home to ‘Karachi Port’, which is one of the biggest harbours in South Asia. The increasing cost of plots in Karachi hints towards the significance of the city’s real estate market. If you want to buy land in the neighbourhood located in any of the cantonment areas, then you will come across a great variety in terms of size and location.
Be it Malir, Clifton, Karachi or Faisal Cantt, the cantonment areas of the city have a long list of properties available for sale. While buying plots in Cantt, people should be careful about the area in terms of it being residential or commercial. These residential plots already have all essential utilities such as clean water, gas and electricity connections.
The price ranges differ according to sizes, so a 125 sq yd plot in Cantt Karachi has sale price starting from PKR 22 lakh and goes up to PKR 15 lakh. However, if you want to buy a plot of 250 sq yds in Cantt, then the price tag for it usually ranges between PKR 67 and PKR 250 lakh. These cost differences among the plots of similar sizes are mostly due to the availability or non-availability of neighbourhood amenities. As compared to other areas of Karachi, the price ranges are low in certain Cantt areas, but you may need to compromise on the quality of the location. Buyers interested in bigger investments can also purchase 500 Sq yds plots in Cantt, however, there is less variety in this area size as compared to the two previously discussed.
