It has been witnessed that the major cash inflow was from KPK, Waziristan and Swat where insecurity prevails because of absence of law and order. The same happened in Karachi, where many businessmen moved their families to safe vicinity of Islamabad and Lahore.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time when bank interest rates are low with ailing economy and lack of business investment opportunities, one is for sure to see all the investment moving from all sources and means to the real-estate market. Islamabad (CDA) property has turned out to be the savior for all the privately owned residential housing schemes including Bahria, DHA, Multigardens, Naval Anchorage, PWD and AJKHS.<\/p>\n<p>However, investors and buyers are advised to invest in Islamabad with care and caution as the property prices are already on the high especially in sector E-12 and D-12 influencing rest of the property market. It is also expected that Islamabad realty market will see a dip as soon as the new government takes office because the government\u2019s main priority would be to bring much wanted investment in the industrial sector in order to uplift the country\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently the property in Islamabad has seen an un-expected surge.
