Can you please suggest some other options in a budget range of 14 to 16 million PKR?
Asalam O Alikum.
Zahid Saab,
Alhumdolillah you have a very good budget and you can get massive returns, IA.
Why do you want to repeat the same mistake what others did? and are still regretting..
You are abroad and you must have put in a lot of effort to earn this much. Have you done a thorough research? do you know how much can you make it from this much amount?

Thanks, Mr. Sayieen,
Are you suggesting not to invest in the commercial hub?
then kindly advise me what options I have.
Thanks in advance

Regarding investment.
First Thing:
You spend a big deal of time, energy, money, and emotions in saving this much money. Now, you deserve to treat yourself and family by investing in right places.
Secondly:
For investment, do a thorough research. Compare different options and then go for the best bet. The education that we get in schools is not useful if we are not able to do comparisons in real life. Simply getting A grade in mathematics is of what use when we fail in real life? And I assure you this investment in Pakistan is far more easier than solving phasors or doing tripple integration.
Thirdly:
Now you have 15 million (1.5 crores).If you buy a shop/s then the maximum rent you would be getting is 75000/month. It will take you 16 years to even out.
Now, If you invest in real estate plots (residential or commercial) you can easily get 80 percent of your money within 2 years (and sometimes even within a year). All it takes is ALLAH ki Raza ....Thorough research.
Plz avoid Phase 8 as a whole for investing. People are suffering because they invested in it blindly. And now who is there to rescue them? They are not even getting the money which they invested in. The location of Phase 8 is not ideal. And in future it will be further not-so-good.
Try investing in societies closer to Islamabad like Gulberg. I recommended Gulberg to all when the plots were hardly 18-19 lakhs for 7-marlas..Now the same plots are above 40 (A block). A 100% return. The future target is at least 65. Indeed Allah knows the best.
Same thing with Topcity. It used to be 28. Now its 48-52.
Thats how people make money.
The losers are those who simply buy a shop and then they try to live on rent. Why would one do it when better opportunities are available? take a look at property dealers. They are not even metriculated. Look how much do they make. Char lafz angrezi key bolney ka fayada kiya jab eik property dealer aap sey achi zindagi guzar raha ho.
Investor wo nahi jo paisa lagaye..Investor wo hey jo Allah key fazl sey sahi wakt per, sahi jaga per aur sahi price per cheez khareedey.
You are blessed that you are investing in a developing country like Pakistan. you would not be able to do the same had you been in India or China.
Apney aap per rehm kerein..apni mehnat ki savings per..aur apney bacho key future per.
Walekum Salam,
my apologies Sayeein Saab,
See I did not know much about property market. Appreciate if you could advise me a couple of options.
I contacted few property dealers but it seems all try to sell their own plots.
I received extremely contradictory opinions, one guy is calling one property as Golden Investment and the other calling it dead end.
Honestly, I am confused.
Living abroad, how can one do a thorough research?
Dear All,
I am new here and looking for honest future advice.
I have 10 million at my disposal and I am planning to invest in Bahria Phase 8-Extension.
I plan on investing for 3 years.
Also can someone suggest better options (if available)
@Nadeem bhai. You said commercial hub is failure. Head office is going to shift?
Do you mean Bahria Town Head Office in Phase 8 will shift? Where is it shifting to? and expected time when?
Mahad sb seriously?With that much investement u are going to buy such a useless thing?
Dear Falcon/ Sayeein and Nadeem Sb,
First of all thanks a lot for your valuable comments and advice, JazakAllah!
I was about to conclude a deal in Hub Commercial at around 15 million but put the decision on hold after considering Mr. Nadeem and Mr. Sayeein advice.
Now looking at Mr. Falcon comment, it seems a complete consensus that phase 8 is not a right choice.
Dear Gurus,
Please guide the ignorant overseas like me so we could avoid wasting our hard earned money.
Thanks in advance.
Dear Ahmed,
I never said that Hub commercial is fail.After shift head office prices may little down.Lot of new construction around Hub commercial so it will take little time to full peak.New head office under construction close to Bahria expressway.About location you can see in below link

Dear Mr. Nadeem,
In your view, what are the prospects for Hub Commercial in long run?
is it wise to buy a 5 marla corner at 15 million considering 3 years retention time?
Dear Zahid,
As you know Safari valley which is big area around Hub commercial so it's not a bad option for long term.Hum commercial will take little time to full peak.
Regards
Asalam O Alikum.
Zahid saab,
First thing is that I don't blame you for being confused as so many dealers wanted to make money out of you.
Like you there are many overseas brothers who are constantly looking for best research and best investment ideas. There are prominent WatsApp groups which have a track record of success.
I highly encourage you to join these groups for good ideas.
One group, "Islamabad Best Investments" is highly rated as it is free of spam and it compares different potential societies for investment purposes. Brothers there have made money and are very helpful and I highly encourage you to send a request to the admin of group and he will add you IA. His number is number +923455175575
If you want my sole opinion, I do not recommend anyone investing in Phase-8 whether its commercial or residential. People have lost millions and they are crying. They are simply stuck in it.Why to risk money when better opportunities are there.
May ALLAH bless us all. Aameen
Dear
Nadeem sb rightly said about buying near new Bahria town office. This office will NOT BE ONLY the local office. It will be the Pakistan Bahria town central office and the buying near that area will IA prove good.
You can get now a commercial at 3 crore and make shops and flats. They will be sold like hot cakes after office shifting.
Gulberg Green is good but as IB is dead slow, it may rise on slow pace.
Top city is risky but Mumtaz, Ghandhara and Faisal town must be explored as well.
DHA-5 is also very good to invest.DHA-4 the front plots are also good for future rise.
Keep watch on DHA valley situation and keep yourself well informed there!
Phase-8 is not a block, it is city inside the city. Explore residential there.
Hello Gurus
I am overseas l have a 10 marla plot in phase 8 st 3 how much it should be because in selling section I see prices of phase 8 from 40 to 65 so I am confused why so much variation in prices also I have a DHA ph 2ext file in sec B st 4 how much that should be thanks in advance
Please consider DHA 3 Serene city which is located in Bahria garden city and now has access to GT road also
Yes
Adnan sb is also right.
DHA-3 is also very good
Walikum Salam,
Sayeein Saab,
thanks a lot for your valuable advice and sharing of WhatsApp group number.
Have sent a request to admin.
JazakAllah
Dear Nadeem Sb, Abdul Qayyum Sb and Adnan Sb,
Thanks to all of you as well for providing your valuable advice,
Going through all this discussion, I think, I must complete my research on all these options before committing investment.
Thanks again and take care
