Prism DHA Lahore Phase 9 Updates

Selling Properties Market Prices
#31

Dear Mr CMY

I asked you some questions related to DHA 7, 8, Prism and Town.

a) If Prism rises would prices in DHA 7 and 8 not also rise proportionately.

b) Did DHA Town own all the land in sector A to D before start of development work? Is DHA Town to be expanded? Did it take 4 years to develop sector A to D despite owning the land?

c) Why would DHA own land for Prism and not for DHA Town when land is generally in the same area? What are your expectations of price increase in Prism over the next few years? At what price should investors exit Prism?

@Bajwa I have nothing against Mr CMY. I do not believe in spreading disinformation as I am neither an agent nor a market maker. I am just sharing my knowledge, experience and thoughts.

Very valuable input by CMY sb and Arshad sb.

I agree that government spending in any city would boost the real estate in the respective city, in this case, Lahore is of course been adorned and heavily invested in by the current government. So in general real estate across lahore will prosper.

Points taken on land issues in phase 7 and landfill in phase 8. But Arshad sb has very valid points regarding DHA Town, coz it was to be done on highest preference, reason being the allocations were for Shuhada, even then it took about 3-4 years to get to possession for a few blocks… so how come a gigantic phase like prism will be delivered in the same time frame. Nevertheless on an optimistic, in fact idealistic side, it can be done for a few blocks, if fast track development Actually kicks in.

CMY has been an advocate for prism since long, far as I could remember, but many people didn't understand its potential well including me. The recent ballot and price hike has proved CMY's recommendations were right. Whether he was able to promote something more or less at a given time cannot be an obligation to him, especially when it’s a free advice.

We must confess that the kind of information and analysis he has been providing us with was unprecedented in Pakistan real estate. I am sure many of us learnt a lot about real estate from him and had he not been there, people wouldn’t be putting an analysis the way they are doing it now. Now everyone’s become an expert on property, quoting directly/indirectly many of the points first raised by CMY so he very duly deserves the applause. But in this case, the points raised by Arshad sb on comparing DHA Town are very valid and not been heard from CMY, at least not in my knowledge.

From this point onwards, I think we all agree, including CMY that price gains will not be as significant as they have been in last few years, though there will be consistent gains across DHA. The extent of gains in each phase may vary naturally at different times due to major progress in anyone of them like major developments in knowledge village or hospital in phase 7, possession in phase 8 or due to the speed of earth work in phase 9.

All investments will have their pros and cons. No one investment is perfect. They are good or bad depending upon the timing of you putting in the stakes.

People have both lost and earned millions in prism only because of the difference in their timing of investment.

Will an investment be a nightmare or a lottery; it’s up to your ability of reading market and making a timely decision.

I just want to add a note, its good to be rational but not suspicious.

If someone shares information, we must be thankful not start doubting his intentions that he will become a billionaire by posting on zameen.com

The problem with our attitude is we are too quick to put tags on people.

If one cannot tolerate a difference of opinion, he must not get into an argument. Period.

P.S. This is not directed to anyone here, just an observation on attitude of people commenting on different threads including those on LRE website.

I give credit to Mr CMY for being a pioneer in online estate agency in Pakistan. He will be long remembered, he has provided a great service for us overseas Pakistanis to participate in Pakistan real estate while being abroad.He is a likeable person.If anything I would like Mr CMY to give us more of his valuable time as without him things are not the same. I enjoy reading his comments.

The discussion in not about Mr CMY or Prism. Any asset acquired will increase in value over the longer term. The key issue in investment is return, which is determined by timing of purchase and sale and price paid for asset. People need to consider the pro and con of each investment and not get carried away by the hype. People need to be able to analyse the worth of something today and its price in the future to be a successful investor. Getting the same or less return than the market means the investor has failed to perform. If your assumptions are wrong then a good investment can turn out to be a bad investment.

Therefore assumptions always need to be constantly questioned.These are not arguments but a healthy debate. People in Pakistan always think they are right and everybody else is wrong and get into arguments but as far as I am concerned it is a debate and nothing personal.It is possible that I am wrong to be cautious after my experience in my only file in lahore which has underperformed all my other investments but usually the truth will be somewhere between optimism and pessism.

#35

Any updates about development start? Which blocks getting developed first.

#36

MBS and Arshad some points cant be made in public to explain this in detail.We have to work with DHA office on daily bases for transfers etc. So I have few limitation what can be disclosed in public. Will only share enough info that will give you basic idea.

Very little land was taken in DHA town before its development was announced/started in hurry on Gen Kiyani pressure. Perhaps 10% land or less was in DHA possession for DHA Town at time of development and hand over in 2 years time before Gen Kiyani retirement. To get land in hurry a juicy deal was offered to have 4 files issued for 5 marla plot size for four kanal agri land instead of only one kanal plot file for 4 kanal agri land. 4 five marla files were sold twice more than one one kanal file at that time.

Yes either DHA7 MUST RISE or DHA9 PRISM plus IVY GREEN PRICES WILL FALL IN FUTURE TO KEEP PROPER BALANCE.I have already strongly recommended buying DHA7 recently about 4 weeks ago in my posts as its now too under priced comparing to DHA6 7 8 and especially to Ivy Green and Prism

To prove 100% my pont DHA have only 10% land before DHA town development was announced I am letting you know about few weeks a mini ballot was held AFTER DHA TOWN possession was announced all files having under 1000 numbers were allotted developed ready to build plots in blocks A to D. Plots recently allotted were in many 100s because file numbers in DHA town were like 890/1 890/2 890/3 etc

WHAT MAKES CMY DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS IS TRUST IN DHA , WHICH CAN BE BASED ON SOURCES OF CMY OR PR . IF CMY TRUST ON DHA THAT THEY WILL DEVELOP IN 3 YEARS AS MENTIONING , IF DHA EVEN DEVELOP IT IN 8 YEARS , CMY WILL STILL BE WINNER , ONE BLOCK OF PRISM 9 WITH 8 MERLA COMMERCIAL OR A 5 MARLA BLOCK WITH 50 FT ROAD OR THEME PARK WILL BE HEAVIER ON ANY PREVIOUS PHASES AND BLOCKS , SUPPOSE IN FUTURE PHASE 6 KANAL INCREASED TO 4 CRORE TILL DHA 9 DEVELOP IN 3-8 YEARS , WHAT WILL BE PRICE OF KANAL IN PRISM THN 5 CRORE? SUPPOSE 4 CRORE , DEFINITELY NO ONE BUY PHASE 6 THAN EITHER PHASE 6 WILL STRANGLED OR LOOSE PRICE ,IF PHASE 6 CANT COMPETE THAN BAD LOCATED PHASE 7 CAN ? SO THIS IS Y POTENTIAL FUTURE IN PRISM ,SO THIS Y IT NAMED PRISM NOT PHASE 9 ONLY.

NOW THE POINT ARSHAD RAISE AND MBS INDICATED

BUT I DISAGREE ON FEW POINTS FROM ABOVE U CAN CLEARLY SEE WHEN TO EXIT PRISM ANSWER IS NEVER ,OR UNTIL POSSESSION .FRIENDS YOU CAN PREDICT ONLY , NO ONE TELLS U FUTURE CLEARLY , MAY BE A EARTHQUAKE OR WAR CHANGE WHOLE PIC BUT NOW SCENARIO INDICATING PRISM WILL GLOW OTHERS PHASES WONT COMPETE IT .DHA TOWN DELAYED DUE TO MANY INTERNAL DELAYS IN ARMY, PHASE 7,8 WAS BAD LESSONS . NEW MISTAKES BY DHA MAY DELAY FROM 3 TO 5 OR 8 BUT AS FIRST DAY OF DEVELOPMENT MADE PHASE 7 PRAISERS CRAZY ,WITH EVERY WEEK AND MONTH PASS B5 ,PHASE 9 WILL TURN INTO PRISM ,NOW FORGET DEALERS CAN PLAY MUCH IN PRICES NOW AS IN FILES THE DID , PRISM JET TAKING LAUNCH .

LAHORE - An inaugural ceremony was held in Defence Housing Authority, (DHA) Lahore’s largest phase Prism -9, in connection with developmental works.

Administrator DHA, Lahore, Brigadier Zafar Yaseen Babar was the chief guest on the occasion.

In his address, Babar said that the phase would be developed in four years, and would have all modern facilities.

The phase, spreading over 40, 000 kanals, could be accessed from 8 different directions.

A city mall, having latest facilities, a modern university as well as a modern hospital would also be built in it.

Spacious parks of the phase seem to enhance its beauty, while mosques, churches, cafes, golf courses, water theme parks, business centres, a drive-in- cinema, polo clubs, race courses, convention centres, electronic parking system, emergency service and a police station are all such specialties of the phase that will directly or indirectly benefit millions of its residents as well as businessmen

On the occasion, Chief Engineer Colonel ( r ) Shah Jahan, while giving details of Prism 9, said that there would be 25, 600 residential while 1, 900 commercial plots in it; the phase would spread over 16 acres; maximum length of roads in the phase would be 30 km, which would be 120 to 150 ft wide

Other roads in the Prism, consisting of 2 to 3 lanes, would be 60 to 80 ft wide, and these would be capable of bearing an increasing traffic load.

For public convenience, service lane would also be built along every road.

27 overhead water tanks, along with tube-wells, would be built in the Prism.

These would cater for the requirements of residents of this largest phase.

Round the clock.

Keeping in view peoples’ needs, 6 sewerage stations would also be built.

6 grid stations would be built for the power supply.

The system would be underground While LED lights would also be installed

Wells would be built in all parks for the water sanitation, while the water would also be preserved for irrigation purposes.

The most important thing about Prism 9 is that a boundary wall would be built around it for security purposes.

No doubt prices would increase of all phases but Prism is currently at the same price as Ivy Green and 80% of the price of fully developed DHA phase 7. As CMY stated Prism will have to fall or DHA phase 7 would have to rise. There is a lot of hype at the moment and many people will be wanting to offload their investments and shift to DHA City which has more potential. There could be a stagnation in Prism prices in the short term. It is not certain but a possibility.

Waooo ... Prism is inflating inflating & more inflating.

Cant believe that some of PRISM plots (all in air) have actually surpassed Phase 7 possession plots prices.

#49

Sheikh bro, this is not the first time. Didn't Phase 8 non possession plot prices also cross possession plots in Phase 7 long ago? Reason was Phase 8 is sooo much better location as compared to Phase 7.

What is artificial is not that Prism has exceeded Phase 7 because again there is a massive difference in location.

But what might be problematic is that Prism prices have reached very near Phase 8 prices. Phase 8 is better located and nearly complete. Actually I think Prism high-end prices are same as Phase 8 low end prices. This means best location plots in Prism are equal in price to worst location plots in Phase 8 such as on boundary or near grid station, graveyard etc.
