According to the information I have procured from sources I trust, development work is underway at a faster\u00a0pace in certain blocks. This suggest that when possession is handed over, it would be for more than just DHA Homes. The developer\u2019s preference for development is perhaps based on the location of these blocks as well as their existing development status.<\/p>\n<p>The blocks that lie closer to DHA Phase II Extension and\u00a0Kallar Syedan Road are being developed at the moment. These blocks include Bluebell, Rose, Magnolia, Oleander and Lilly, while development work in Sunflower has been completed. Although this\u00a0suggests that property possession in Sunflower should be offered soon, unfortunately this is not the case. So generally, information about possession in\u00a0DHA Valley is as vague as ever.<\/p>\n<p>There is also no update regarding the\u00a0DHA Homes constructed a while ago that were being renovated in 2015 in anticipation of possession. From the DHA helpline I have learnt that development work is almost 90% complete in the mentioned blocks but my sources quote different figures. Per my knowledge, development work is about 50% complete in Bluebell, Magnolia and Lilly while\u00a0Rose and Oleander are\u00a070% developed. This, in other words, means that 100% of the area of these blocks is cleared of litigation and plot file owners can be sure of getting possession whenever it is\u00a0offered.<\/p>\n<p>Since I have been covering the project for many years now, the site of Dhodocha Dam and the\u00a0blocks it might affect also concerns me. If the dam is not moved to the proposed site, which falls between Bluebell and Snowdrop blocks, Tulip and Rose Block might need relocation. Rose Block is 70% developed, which means that \u00a0some area of this block will be relocated, while chances are that Tulip might shift to a new location altogether. Nothing can be said for sure\u00a0about the dam\u2019s site as the authority concerned is currently preparing its feasibility report.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Bahria Town\u2019s offer for alternate plots in its projects in Karachi and Rawalpindi seems to have simplified the situation\u00a0for the developer as almost 15,000 plot owners from DHA Valley have been moved to these projects. With 15,000 less plots to worry about, the area required for the dam\u2019s site might as well have been cleared off, but where exactly would the dam be located? I have been unable to get this information from the DHA office.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of the access road, development work is currently underway at a road that runs through Oleander, Magnolia, Rose, DHA Homes and goes all the way to Bluebell. This road will initially offer a dedicated and spacious entrance from Kallar Syedan Road to these blocks. The fact that pace of development work is speedy\u00a0in blocks that lie along this road suggests that we might get to see possession handover of more than just DHA Homes, and that too perhaps within a year.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, there is no development work going on in Bougainvillea and Daffodils which share a boundary wall with Oleander. However, there is nothing to worry about because the completion of this road will naturally make development work indispensable in these blocks.<\/p>\n<p>The vague situation is certainly frustrating. Even though the developer announced\u00a0possession handover of DHA Homes in December 2015, we haven\u2019t come across an official update\u00a0in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0I am convinced that the dark days for DHA Valley are over. My conviction rests on the fact that thorough development work is on in around\u00a0five blocks and Bahria Town is getting the needed assistance to provide a direct entrance to the project.<\/p>\n<p>When these blocks located on the Kallar Syedan side of DHA Valley are developed and handed over to the respective owners, development work will\u00a0be initiated in remaining blocks which include Jasmine, Daisy, Eglantine, Gloxinia, Iris, Lotus. Marigold, Zinia, Lotus and Snowdrop. If the expected timeline for possession handover is met, we should be able to see development work initiated and carried out at a similar pace in the remaining blocks. In other words, it is a matter of less than five years for\u00a0the entire project to\u00a0be ready to offer rewards to the plot owners,<em> insha&#8217;Allah<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, I would once again recommend that you shouldn\u2019t sell\u00a0these files. Instead, transfer them to your names and wait patiently to reap good profits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just as I promised in my last post\u00a0on DHA Valley, I am here with more updates.
