Should State Life members worry about it? Not really, because DHA has better growth potential.<\/p>\n<p>If the merger takes place, State Life\u2019s Phase II will most likely become a part of Prism 9, but this is a mere guestimate and you should not rely on this information until the DHA comes out with its version.<\/p>\n<p>In our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/dha-lahore-shows-interest-in-acquiring-state-life-phase-ii.html\">previous post<\/a> on the subject, we did a comparison between property prices in Prism 9 and State Life\u2019s Phase II. Let\u2019s review the prices once again with brevity: The average price of a 1-kanal plot in State Life\u2019s Phase II is PKR 3,250,000. In Prism 9, the average price of a 10-malra plot is PKR 5,098,990. So rest assured, the merger will prove to be fruitful for members.<\/p>\n<p>If this merger takes place, DHA will develop the project and possibly levy additional development charges. We understand this is vexing for members, but they should keep the potential of the DHA in mind. Once again, an official announcement from the DHA will clarify this matter as well.<\/p>\n<p>Well that\u2019s all about merger of State Life\u2019s Phase II with DHA Lahore for the day. Rest assured, we will keep a close eye on the matter and will update you as soon as any further information becomes available to us. Till then we can continue our discussion in the comments section below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A number of rumours regarding the merger of State Life\u2019s Phase II with Defence Housing Authority (DHA), Lahore are making rounds right now.
