Defence Housing Authority, or DHA, is known throughout the country for its well-planned housing communities. One of DHA’s oldest projects is in Lahore, where newer phases are being consistently developed, keeping the society at the forefront of all the real estate happenings in the city. DHA, Lahore, features a range of plots in varying sizes in every phase, but we’re here to discuss the best phases for 10 marla plots in DHA, Lahore.
Average Price of 10 Marla Plots in DHA, Lahore
We’ll discuss three of the most popular phases of DHA, Lahore, below, along with giving you a deeper insight into why they’re so popular among investors and what the average price of 10 marla plots is like in each. But first, let’s dive into a detailed overview of the average price trends for 10 marla plots in DHA, Lahore.
As detailed in the table above, Phases 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 of DHA Lahore have the highest average prices, since these are the oldest sectors. All of these are also fully developed, with Phases 1 to 5 being close to the main boulevard of DHA, Lahore, making their location ideal for residence and investment.
Moreover, Phase 6 enjoys proximity to the Lahore Ring Road, which keeps it at the top of the pack in terms of price. As per the table above, we can also see that the average cost of 10 marla plots in Phase 9 Town is somewhat similar to the average price of same-sized plots in older phases. This is because Phase 9 is divided into two parts, with the town being fully developed and ripe for investment.
In contrast to the above, we can see that Phases 7, 8, and 9 Prism are on the lower end of the spectrum when it comes to average prices, primarily because these phases are still being developed and continue to witness fluctuations in prices as per the prevailing market conditions and the pace of development. While DHA, Lahore, Phase 7, is nearly 90% developed, Phase 8 is still seeing steady development in extensions such as Block Z (IVY Green). As such, prices of plots are bound to increase in Phase 8 once the newer blocks have been developed and are ready for possession. The same can be said for DHA Phase 9 Prism and its 16 sectors from Blocks A to R, all of which are under development. However, Phase 9 Prism might require until 2021 to be entirely developed and ready for possession.
