So, the formalities for the map approval of all three blocks are being fulfilled. Yet, no confirmed date can be given for when the approvals will be obtained.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Market Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the experts interviewed that prices have been slightly declining in Grand Avenue Housing Scheme. The prices currently stand as follows:<\/p>\n<table class=\"post-tbl-cust\" width=\"360\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\"><strong>Size of Plot<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"312\"><strong>Price in PKR<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" width=\"623\"><strong>Residential Plots<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">5-marla<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">2,000,000\u20142,700,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">10-marla<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">3,300,000\u20144,200,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">1-kanal<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">5,500,000\u20146,500,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" width=\"623\"><strong>Commercial Plots<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">4-marla<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">7,500,000\u20148,500,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>According to the sources, the situation is set to continue until the housing scheme gets gas connection. However, appreciation of prices can be expected after that. Possession is available in parts of Sectors A and B, so the situation can also be expected to significantly improve once the construction of houses has begun.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should the investors do?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The best approach would be to hold your investment for a bit longer, till the map gets approved and construction begins. The Southern Loop of Lahore Ring Road benefits the housing scheme and so will DHA Phase X. The best news for those who have already invested in the housing scheme is that the society may get gas by March next year, which will mean that the prices will go upwards then too and you might want to hold on till then.<\/p>\n<p>For those looking to invest, Altaf suggested that the project can considered for long-term investment. Any such investment will have to span between two to three years. A lot depends on the construction of the houses in the project, and people living in them, for which no clear timeframe could be given at this point.<\/p>\n<p>Have you invested in Grand Avenues Housing Scheme?
