We\u2019ve got a lot of queries regarding the best rent options in all the major cities of Pakistan. After covering the best rental localities in Karachi, we\u2019ve now brought you the top rental localities for Islamabad.<\/p>\n

According to Zameen.com Trends, the top three locations amongst the twenty most popular locations are DHA Defence, E-11, and G-11.<\/p>\n

DHA Islamabad<\/strong><\/p>\n

DHA is the most commonly searched location for rental options in Islamabad. Here, you can find both apartments and houses for rent. The apartments are located in Askari Tower, whereas houses are constructed in two phases of DHA.<\/p>\n

Monthly rent in Askari Tower<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Size<\/strong><\/td>\nGround-floor\u00a0 rent (PKR)<\/strong><\/td>\nFirst-floor rent (PKR)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3-bed apartment<\/td>\n38,000<\/td>\n28,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
4-bed apartment<\/td>\n45,000<\/td>\n35,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Amongst these, according to Ch. Sheraz Iqbal from Al-Hamdan Real Estate, the 3-bed apartments are preferred the most. This, he believes, is primarily because people who want to buy apartments lean towards smaller options, especially couples and families.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, according to Iqbal, there are variations for home rental options depending on the size of the house, location, and the portion available for rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Size of the house<\/strong><\/td>\nPortion<\/strong><\/td>\nRent (in PKR)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10-marla<\/td>\nUpper<\/td>\nN\/A<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10-marla<\/td>\nGround<\/td>\nN\/A<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10-marla<\/td>\nComplete house<\/td>\n55,000-65,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1-kanal<\/td>\nUpper<\/td>\n40,000-45,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1-kanal<\/td>\nGround<\/td>\n60,000-65,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1-kanal<\/td>\nComplete house<\/td>\n95,000-115,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The above table doesn\u2019t show data for either 10-marla upper or lower storeys, because most 10-marla houses for rent aren\u2019t given in portions, but are rented out entirely. Although there are two phases in DHA Islamabad, the rent for houses sized the same don\u2019t vary that much. Iqbal calculates the difference between them to be of PKR 5,000-10,000 at most.<\/p>\n

E-11<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Talha Khan and Raja Rameez from MM Real Estate, there are various property options available for people to rent in E-11. In Islamabad, different dimensions are used for calculating the land area and in E-11 there aren\u2019t any standard-sized houses. Because of this, a lot more options are available. Apart from houses, apartments are also easily available for rent. Amongst these, according to Rameez, Margalla Hills, Hareem Tower, Multi Arcade, and Tower Town are the most important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Houses<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

3-bed<\/td>\n40,000-50,000<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Rameez added that most people prefer 2-bed apartments as they are the most suitable for smaller families. Bigger families, in his opinion, prefer to have houses instead of apartments. For a comparison from December 2017, you can check our last update<\/a>.<\/p>\n

G-11<\/strong><\/p>\n

Muhammad Adnan Anwar from FA Property notes that in G-11, more house portions are given for rent as compared to entire houses. G-11 also has Warda Hamna, a very popular apartment building which is offering property for rent.<\/p>\n

The rents in this sector are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
