G-13 & d-12

Buying Property Investors Advice
#1

Hello ppl. These 2 areas have been discussed a lot before but still am curious over the increase in prices here and need some guidance. I want to know how much more prices will go up here as they still seem to be going up and not stopping. In g-13 last year a 3060 plot was around 100 lacs and now is 130+ lacs. A 3570 was 140 lacs and now 190+. A 4080 was 170 lacs and now 220+. Most ppl saying within next 2 years 3570 would reach or cross 250 lacs and 40*80 would 300+ lacs.

Same goes for d-12 which is stale for a bit long time but again with development here in the next 2 years it would become very expensive of what it is now.

Are prices really going to go up that high in coming time while neighboring areas in zone 2 are much cheaper as an alternative option. Can someone clarify please as i do not understand the grounds for such increase here.

#2

D-12 prices are stable now, but they will go up for sure due to Proximity, very beautiful location & CDA Sector.

G-13, prices might go up (Just because of CDA Name), but the place is not good for living, atleast i dont like it.

#3

Sir why you say the place is not good for living can you kindly clarify. Location wise i think it is better than D-12 due to kashmir highway

#4

Yes G-13 is a better choice at this moment if you consider all aspects. As soon as roads are carpeted, it will have a better look as compared to G-11.

D-12 will not gain as much as G-13 in the short term, but in the long term after Margalla Avenue completion and development completion, D-12 will cross G-13.

But Allah knows best.

#5

Thx pk1. By short term can you tell how much period do you anticipate as short-term? i am interested in investing in g-13 in a 10 marla plot so would need your kind advice here? anyhow i am preferring investing in g-13 over d-12 for a period of 3 years.

#6

If you ask me short term could mean an year or two…as soon as KH and new Islamabad airport is completed… You could make some good gains on your investment…

#7

Arshad, you can check prices of G-11 to estimate where G-13 will end up once its roads are carpeted and water/sewer conditions improve. Similarly, D-12 fares with E-11 (MPCHS sub-sectors) which is awaiting bit more population for others to start moving in.

#8

Thx Hayat and Isloo. Yup in comparison to G-11 i think average plots 35*70 should touch 250+ lacs and 40*80 300+ lacs. But again it depends if G-11 is going to remain stable and if it increases with time then it is hard to determine.

#9

Arshad Bhai. I would again say that better to invest in D-12. Other option can be G-15 if you want to take some risk.

When the sector gets going, prices go anywhere and surprise everyone. I have seen this in E-11 and than in G-13. When housing reach 60% or less, this phenomenon happens. G-13 is on the last stages of this. D-12 is yet to enter that time.

Like in E-11, property selling takes a longer time than an year before because it has passed that phase.

I may be wrong. Just my view.

#10

Malik sb you are also recommending G-15. What are your points in favour of G-15?

#11

B.R.Malik thx a lot for the advice.sir what would you suggest going for G-13 for short term like 2 years and then move on in to D-12 because as brother PK1 has mentioned indeed D-12 has a bright scope but it will take much time probably 5+ years so the gain benefited from G-13 in the short term can be moved in to D-12 later. I assume in this short term the gain in G-13 would be better than in D-12 so it would be more or less a WIN-WIN situation.

Any suggestion.

#12

And yeah G-15 is very nice option. Prices are lower compared to G-13/14, 40-50% populated. Will take benefit from both new airport and KH access through motorway. But i do not have funds to go there if i opt for zone 1

#13

Arguments in favour of G-15 are

  1. G-15 is next in numbering series of Islamabad. Numbering has psychological advantage in winning the buyers. It seems a small edge but a very important one.

  2. I think 40x80 size is underpriced in G-15 and has a lot of potential.

  3. Population in G-15 is really surprising. I would again assert my theory of 60% population barrier. More population, prices go up as relatives and friends come to visit the hosts and they start planning to make home. Confidence is also increased when they have first hand knowledge about their relative's experience of house in the locality. This generate a lot of demand.

  4. Kashmir Highway expansion make going to G-15 easier than before.

  5. Airport inauguration would help G-15 though other factors are stronger.

  6. Proximity to both GT Road and Motorway.

Only drawback I know of G-15 is security.

I would again say that getting 40x80 level plot in 75-78 Lakh is a go.

#14

Another point is that when you enter G-15, it never gives look of G sectors. Roads are open. Houses are big. A lot of openness when you roam around in G-15.

#15

Nice analysis on G-15. Two more points to add G-15 maybe a new zero point directing towards islamabad, pindi, kpk etc. And i think housing needs are only being met by G-15 so far in zone 2 which is close to main islamabad.

B.R,Malik what you think about my approach to G-13 and D-12 i mentioned earlier kindly assist. Is it feasible?

#16

I would still favour D-12. When G-13 is finished, investors will turn to only option in Zone 1 which is D-12. People not conscious or have complex of Zone 1 will reluctantly go to G-15. Bahria and DHA is other market.

Prices in G-13 cannot increase forever. Increase has to slow down like in E-11 if not coming to a halt.

But everyone has his own angle of viewing things and I can be absolutely wrong.

#17

B.R Malik, looking at current price growth in G-11, I-8 and E-11, I wouldn’t be so sure if G-13 would go stagnant any time soon.

#18

B.R.Malik prices have gone pretty high in G-15 for 40*80 plots. You cannot find anything in 75 lacs now. 40*80 has now crossed 90 lacs threshold and most trading going on in 95 lacs. Is it worth buying it now? well private societies take a bit long for any price growth than CDA and DHA and given this gain of almost 20-25 lacs in 40*80 i think another jump would again take a long time

#19

I don't think price in G-15 is so high. I had dealing with Basit property on main road. Try that. I checked prices 3 week back.

@ isloo. You must be right. Probably I know not much about G-13. If everyone is saying that G-13 is still a good place for investment than I withdraw my arguments :-)

#20

Guys, what is the opinion about G-14, I have a plot in G-14/1 and i dont know when it will be developed.
