My Pick with reasons:
B-17 MPCHS (Because Potential Gain for locating between/Near 4 famous roads. G.T Road, Motorway Road, Upcoming Margalla Avenue, Upcoming Ring Road, CEPEC Rout Hakla Intechange)
Bahria Phase 8 Extension ( Minimum Rates, Next to purposed RRR, Development is faster than DHA 3)
Gulberg Residencia ( IBECHS new 4th files & D Markaz sale will give a lot of revenue to the society. They want to Acquire & develop the land as soon as possible & to Complete the society till Year 2023 deadline)
I-12/15/16, C-15/16 (Bcoz CDA management is putting their money in these sectors Especially Sector C).
Park Enclave Phase 3. ( New deal from CDA)
For the plots investment I-15 have a potential to grow exponentially and touch the price of I-14. Particularly go for 3 and 4. I-12 is also in the race. Other than that F-14 have a huge potential and FGEHA is currently putting its maximum efforts to develop long awaited projects. F-14 can be seen at par with G-13 and G-14. Smart City is bit long term investment consider it atleast 5+ years of invesmtent.
Also FGEHA apartments specially in G-13 have a huge potential to give maximum ROI in next 3 years time.
With the budget you have, only invest in CDA in progress sectors or on ground possession plots in private socities. Only go for DHA and BT possession plots. Consider DHA 3 and DHA 5 in particular.
In my opinion
1-Dha-3 proper developed area
2-Dha-5
3-Bahria Phas-8
4-Park View City J and H block which near to possession
5-B-17 E,F,G blocks
6-Faisal Hills
7-I-12/14/15/16

Smart city series by HRL is on par with DHA’s new projects and backed by a real solid team as we can see from CSC’s on-ground work till now.
In the longer run, we may see DHA and Smart series competing as BT being a one man show may loose the race.
As of now, CSC development pace, quality, marketing strategy far exceeds both the BT & DH combined!
The turn-off seems to be the location, however, if and whenever RRR materliases to something concrete or more population concentration in that Chakri area, the prices will reach pretty much same level as DH/early phases of BT.
Though they are trying their best to overcome that with interchange approval and multiple entry points. Being Land Owner and Developer is their strength backed up with a strong marketing team.
The pitfall to avoid is dealers game that will kill the brand is dealers game (a glimpse of that in commercial of Harmony Park) ...
Can some property gurus and senior members of this forum throw some light on Blue Area II project location etc. This is the first time I heard about this project. Thanks in advance.
Rauf sb, here is the original topic
https://www.zameen.com/forum/discussions/buying_property/is_the_new_blue_area_worth_investing_in_-33016.html
Here is my post with insights back in the day, like an year ago ...
=======================
Total Size = 170 Kanal (not much)
Location = Between G-9 & F9: Jinnah Avenue to be specific (A rectangular strip between Jinnah Avenue & Ibn e Sina Road). Approx 3 to 4 km on straight road from the Centaurus & less from F-8 Markaz.
Estimated Revenue by Land Selling = 25 to 30 Bn PKR (25 to 28) Commercial Plots for Auction
** 30000000000 PKR/(170 X 20) = 75 to 88 Lakh approx per Marla.
Hopefully, I havent missed any zero(s), here and there...
Revenue/Size gives a rough figure in terms of price/marla/sq. Yards.
CDA needs money, area is small surrounding is prime and developed. If CDA doesnt mess that up as usual this is show that can be started and completed within 1 year.
-------------
Here is the location on GMaps (rectangular slot) Starting and Ending exactly between G-9, F9 where both start and end:

What are the views of the experts about DHA 4?
Details please.
I have different opinion for Capital Smart City. Because in Property Investment the only thing Matter is , Location, Location & Then Development. What every you have developed, If your location is remote or far away from the main chunk of population, It will take alot of time. I think it is 10+ years investment 3 years to take for RRR construction only.
Furthermore, HRL is a big name, But you can not sell your name only, It will always be Location first, Then development & name. at the current CSC is out & far away from main RWP ISB City. new city infact. Same as islamabad was a new city near rawalpindi. It took many years to develop & populate islamabad although it was capital. How much it will take for CSC, I think very long.

Quite realistic approach.
Based on facts, not based on dreams shown by dealers.
@Imtiaz sab, thank you very much for your response, brother. I believe your logic is quite valid. Personally, though, I feel I would not consider apportioning a major share of my investment basket to either LSC or CSC since it seems to be all about catching that train on time, as you said 
@Imtiaz sahib, many thanks for your detailed reply. You are no doubt a most helpful person on this forum.
Thank you Ali & Rauf sb, humbled to read your kind words! It's a community spirit and collective efforts that we all share bits and pieces from our end for a collective enlightenment!
Crowd-Sourced Consultations ... :)
I see two factors dominating property market in 2021.
1. Worsening economy.
2. "Game of throne"
Impact of point 1 is quite obvious and clearly evident in poor response to "Construction Package" and hidden amnesty, both are going to expire in December. The package failed to stir up market and economy as the planners expected. Only CDA and DHAs benefitted from it.
"Game of Throne" refers to power struggle or dog-eats-dog situation. No wonder joker Malik Riaz and his glamorous BT projects are under alien attack while boring DHAs (and the likes) are prospering exponentially. And no doubt all mega investments on ring roads, corridors and by-passes are designed to benefit them.
With these gross assumptions, I see 2021 as a year of safe investment. Build long-term assets with dividend (rent) option.
Don't stick out your neck too much or it will be chopped off !!!
@Rizwan sab, from what I have heard, and it might be wrong since I don’t have much personal knowledge on the topic, DHA Phase 4 is dependent on possession and development and people are not really expecting possession in 2021. So it is only a medium-term option. Other experts will be able to inform you better, I hope.

True that and good analysis as usual Isloo1 sb.
During search, I stumbled upon this interesting thread. Shows how we were all thinking last year and now that 2021 is ending, we can look back and see if our predictions were correct or not.
For the next year (2022), I see fresh investment coming into real estate due to poor economic indicators, hyper-inflation and crashing stock market. Money will find its way into non-value-added, short-term, speculative file trading. Is this another bubble in the making? Well, December is the crucial month, so brace for impact !
@Isloo1 thanks for flagging this thread. It does making an interesting read. I agree that real estate will continue to remain the favourite mode of both short and long term investment for resident and non resident Pakistanis in the foreseable future. Crypto trading did shine for a while but most people who jumped in to crypto without doing any research are now licking their wounds. The most worrying aspect I see is the ever looming depreceation of the pkr currency and hyper inflation.
