For the longest time, whenever we thought of the real estate industry of Punjab, cities like Lahore, Islamabad, and Rawalpindi came to our minds. However, as depicted by Zameen Trends – a digital tool relaying search trends recorded from all over the country – property demand has picked up in several other cities. This is because as the real estate market saturates in major cities, opportunities have sprung up in smaller cities of Punjab, namely Rahim Yar Khan, Multan, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala. Let’s explore each of these cities in detail to understand patterns associated with real estate development in Punjab.
Real Estate Development In Punjab
Rapid infrastructural development is underway in Rahim Yar Khan, Multan, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala under several projects including the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and uplift schemes launched to assist the projects falling under this initiative.
Here, we are discussing the trends associated with real estate expansion in these cities in order to outline the investment hotspots for investors.
Real Estate Development In Gujranwala
It is one of the most important industrial cities of Punjab. However, what sets it apart from the rest of South Punjab is the presence of several small and medium-sized enterprises (SME)s that gradually paved the way for the city to gain an important status in the industry sector. For this reason, the city is expanding and with newer job opportunities and resultantly creating a growing need for housing and entertainment.
To satiate this demand, a number of projects have been established in Gujranwala. Our top two picks are:
DHA Gujranwala
The launch of Defence Housing Authority (DHA) Gujranwala has been a welcomed addition to the city’s real estate market. The projects launched by the DHA are synonymous with well-planned housing schemes featuring world-class amenities. The project is located on GT Road, Rahwali, from where it is conveniently connected to Sialkot, Lahore, Wazirabad, and Gujrat.
As is typical of all DHAs in Pakistan, this gated housing society too will offer wide roads, underground electricity cabling, and proper sewerage system. Moreover, the project will have a dedicated education city, healthcare facilities, and commercial area with shopping outlets, restaurants and recreational facilities. A large number of commercial and residential properties are also available for genuine buyers and investors. For the latest in-depth details, check out this blog.
City Galleria
City Galleria is a mixed-use building located in Citi Housing, which is Gujranwala’s renowned housing project. Due to its location in this society, City Galleria enjoys a direct access to and from the GT Road. The mixed-use building is surrounded by the best entertainment and commercial avenues and is bordered by the scenic Upper Chenab Canal on one end. Other locational benefits include:

The Ground+8 floor project offers a perfect blend of commercial and residential properties for both investors and genuine buyers and is equipped with all the latest facilities that are expected from a modern real estate development.
Here, you can invest in:
- Residential Apartments
- Commercial Outlets

Moreover, there are a host of facilities and amenities available for all genuine buyers and investors who will be living in City Galleria or setting up their business. These features and amenities include:

What’s even more exciting is that Eagle Group – the project developer – has introduced an easy instalment plan spanning over three years, with a balloon-payment option on offer. This highly competitive pricing schedule will ensure lucrative investment returns in the medium to long term.
Real Estate Development In Faisalabad
Faisalabad is known as the textile capital of Pakistan. It is especially known for manufacturing the finest cotton products in the country. However, over the past decade, the city has become a lot more than just a textile manufacturing hub. The real estate sector here, for one, has grown by leaps and bounds. It’s no longer uncommon to find luxurious gated communities here. What’s more, in order to take property development up to the next level, more developers in the city are building vertical projects.
Dawood Heights
Dawood Heights is located in the heart of the city, near the historic Clock Tower or Ghanta Ghar. This central location makes it easily accessible from all the major parts of the city, as well as facilitates access to educational institutes, healthcare facilities and recreational avenues.
Dawood Heights is easily accessible from several major developments:
- 9 minutes from Allied Hospital
- 6 minutes from DHQ Hospital
- 5 minutes from Serena Hotel
- 5 minutes from Chenab Club
- 2 minutes from University of Agriculture (Main Gate)

Moreover, the building features exquisitely designed shops for investors to set up their businesses and offices. For buyers interested in residential units, there are 1- and 2-bed apartments that are designed keeping in view the latest decor trends.
The developers have planned to offer round-the-clock security, as well as concierge services. With these features, Dawood Heights promises high returns on investment as the expected annual rental yield for commercial outlets in Dawood Heights is 7 to 8%, while the projected capital gains during the next three years stand at a decent figure of 40%.
Lyallpur Commercial Market
Lyallpur Commercial Market is a welcome addition to the commercial real estate sector of Faisalabad. Due to its close proximity to the city’s industrial area, the project offers lucrative property options. The project’s central location marks it fit to attract high foot traffic. The project is:

Lyallpur Commercial Market aims to provide a dedicated arena for the city’s commercial activities. With its fully-equipped commercial plaza, it is going to be a fancy new addition to the city’s commercial activities.
Real Estate Development In Punjab: Rahim Yar Khan
For the longest time, Rahim Yar Khan was considered a traditional city, famous for its historical bazaars, with little or no formal real estate sector. However, as the China Pakistan Economic Corridor enters its second phase, and the colonization of the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) continues, Rahim Yar Khan has emerged as the stop over in South Punjab for the SEZs. As businesses set up, and the industrial base expands, there has been a drastic increase in the demand for property.
Real Estate Development In Multan
Multan is another name synonymous with a strong industrial base. You’ll see production plants of various beverages and textile industries here. It comes as no surprise then that the business community here has contributed towards the formalization of a prominent real estate sector.
With more industries being set up, the demand for housing here has increased exponentially. In order to satiate this increased demand, the developers have introduced a number of housing projects in the city.
Al Raheem Villas
Al-Raheem Villas is a carefully-designed residential complex that spreads over 94 Kanals, and is located on Main Nawabpur Road in the heart of the city. This project offers close proximity to most of the city’s entertainment and recreational areas such as:
- 12 minutes from Multan International Airport

- 8 minutes from Bahauddin Zakariya University
- 5 minutes from Northern Bypass

This is a thoroughly-planned housing society that offers residential and commercial plots. Residential plots of sizes 5-, 7-, and 10-marlas are available, whereas commercial plots of sizes 2.3-marlas as well as constructed shops are for sale. All properties are available on easy 1- and 3-year instalment plans for both residential and commercial plots, with promised 40% gains in the next 3 years
