He added that the government has not given any official notification regarding compensation to those affected.<\/p>\n<p>Investors who have a stake in the society need to wait until March 10, and hope for a favourable court verdict. If the ruling goes in their favour then property prices will see a sudden increase.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the prices of plots in the locality are as follows:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\"><strong>Plot Size<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"312\"><strong>Price Range<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">5 marla<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">PKR 1,600,000 to PKR 2,500,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">10 marla<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">PKR 2,700,000 to PKR 3,500,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">1 kanal<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">PKR 4,000,000 to PKR 7,000,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>One-kanal plots on the society\u2019s main boulevard are even valued at PKR 10,000,000.

I believe that this is the right time for investors to jump into the society.<\/p>\n<p>However, those who wish to live here need to adopt a wait-and-see policy, as currently there is no trace of development and the future management of the society will take years to complete development work.<\/p>\n<p>Investors who already have their money in the society should hold onto their property for a little bit more time. However, they should keep a close eye on everything that is happening in the society so that they can take the right decision at the right time.<\/p>\n<p>Investors should avoid commercial properties located at the entrance and avoid buying residential plots in Block A to avoid any complications because of LRR\u2019s development.<\/p>\n<p>I will keep you posted about further developments on the management related issues plaguing the society, along with the court verdicts.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions about the society, feel free to discuss them with me in the comments section below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it first debuted, the National Fertilizer Corporation (NFC) Employees Cooperative Housing Society Ltd caught investor attention because of its cheap prices.
