Furthermore, most of the 10-marla plots are scattered around 1-kanal plots; a location trait that makes any plot fall in the prime category.<\/p>\n<p>Zameen.com noticed a major hike in rates of 10-marla plots in the second quarter of 2018. The journey from there onwards has also been less than unnoticeable. In fact, the statistics recorded during the start of the fourth quarter also suggest that the next months could also bring along decent appreciation in rates. The average price of a 10-marla plot is PKR 6,455,250.<\/p>\n<p>Here is how the year has turned out so far for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/index\/buy\/plots\/lahore\/dha-defence\/10-marla-dha-phase-9-plot-price-index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">10-malra plots in Prism IX<\/a>;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/10-marla.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-44134 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/10-marla.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"637\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/10-marla.png 1255w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/10-marla-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/10-marla-768x363.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/10-marla-537x254.png 537w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 637px) 100vw, 637px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>1-kanal plots<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The year didn\u2019t started off good for 1-kanal plots as rates continued to plunge for the better part of the first half.
