THINGS TO CONSIDER
Lake City, Lahore, is pinned on Raiwind Road, but since the project is a bit far from the main city, where all the offices are usually situated, residents have to cover longer distances to get to work and back. This was a significant reason why investment in Lake City slowed down considerably for some time.

Apart from the location, some of the major residential communities, educational institutions, medical facilities, and tons of different amenities and facilities are in proximity to the project. Property experts recommend buying properties in sectors where possessions have already been handed over.
