Buying Property Where to Buy
#1

Dear friends,

I am overseas pakistani and planning to purchase 7 marla house in safari valley abu bakar block my budget is around 12 million and as per ads on zameen i think i can get good double unit house kindly help me out and advise on the below questions

  1. Since i am planning to move back to pakistan after 3 years, is it easy to rent it out ?I mean i have no family member there so through property dealers by paying monthly fee to them,,are there any issue with that ?

  2. What will be the monthly rental vlaue ?

  3. How to check the build quality like load bearing structure or piler beam structure.

  4. Is it safe to rent ground floor and keep 1st floor empty.

5.Any other suggestions as this is my life time earning

Jazak allah

I think rental value could be between 40 to 45 k and its very difficult to find trust able property agents to maintain your property if you don’t have any relative to check ,most of the built houses are built by different companies and looks good but pillar or load bearing structure not sure

1&2. Easy to rent out already rent outed 2 houses without gas arount 30-32 k with gas 38k onwards.

  1. Difficult to check the beams and quality of bricks ,sand , sarya. Thats why i recommend you to build ur own house.

  2. There are 2 unit house available and its safe to rent one potion.

  3. As said earlier build your own house according to your own need and safety.

Kind regards,

Anees Abbasi

Dear AliAbbasi,

Abu bakar is one of best block of Safari Valley for living.Rent value is 35 to 45k depend on location.

Used and new house 10 to 13 million depend on location.Old house with gas and new houses are without gas.No any issue in Abu bakar block less filling and almost houses are on rent.Hospital,school,parks,mosque and markets are walking distance.Nobody can give you construction guarantee.Better to purchase plot and construct yourself.

Be careful to builders because there is many fraudiyaa who always try to trap people.If you contract to any builder then contract without material.

Regards

Thanks a lot Nadeem Bahi

Actually I am planning this for my personal living so little hesitant to purchase new house as afraid of construction quality ..at the same time I have not enough time to build myself

still confused but 60% I have convinced my self to purchase plot and build later.

Lets see God help us ..you know those typical issues we all are facing as overseas Pakistanis

Jazak Allah

My friends has constructed his 1 kanal house in phase 8 sector A. He is very pleased with his contractor. His contract was without material and his relative once in while check up on him. He has built many projects in Bahria do your due diligence see his work and make a decision. I'll definitely use him when i'll build my house. Insha'Allah. I asked him same question how long will it take to build the house. He reply "12 months, many factors are involved e.g. Brick has dry before the plaster otherwise you will see some issues those sort things"

his name is Naseer and you can reach him at 03138831252 or 03005170136

Dear Ali,

Yes it is not possible to build in 2 months time. In first step just buy the plot and aplly for the possession and map. If you can finalize this now than you can proceed furthur in next step. It took me 9 months to build the house.

As i was myself overseas pakistani and i know how difficult is to earn money.Yes as Nadeem said that be careful and choose the right person and company but there are good companies as well. But what you need to do is dont blindly trust anyone just see there work practically before signing or doing anything and IA you will build the house according to your needs.

By the way u r abbasi which area you are from?

Anees bahi since you have completed your house, kindly advise what will be the rough construction cost of 7 marla double unit house A class construction, I think plot I can get around 4 million .

and if you could recommend any building contractor in phase 8

many thanks

#11

Ali,

It was not my house i build 2 houses there. Ok it depend upon what you call the A class construction it would be better that you should go there and check the quality of construction yourself and than you can ask me the cost of construction(otherwise you will not have any idea). Normal good construction cost 2200 sqft onwards depending upon the finishing material. So in simple words covered area of 7 marla house is around 3100sqft so you will end up with spending (3200*2200)6800000. This is rough and safe estimate.

For contractor as i said earlier better to check there work and decide. Dont go for recomendation even if it is me or anyother person.

i will recommend that you can come over BT as i will be available in the end of the month (i am out of country) and show you some construction and than you can take decision. Right now just concentrate on to buy the plot put full energy. Try to buy the good location plot according to your need as per my experience it will take you time to select the good plot.After selecting just let me know i will confirm the plot from my structural engineer what is the general condition of the area ( he knows these details as he is doing soil testing around abu bakr block).

First Step is difficult than its easy to build the house dont worry at zameen forum we are here to guide you at each step.

Kind Regards,

Anees Abbasi

Good luck Ali Abbasi. I am also sailing in the same boat to decide a location in Bahria for the house construction but having same time constraints–overseas with just one month leaves !!

#14

Good best of luck the two abbasis , take small steps and you will reach ur ultimate goal.

Get the plot first ...... Map and possession and may be start the house construction next year. Slowly but surely you will reach the goal.

Asalam o alikum,

I am a Property Adviser and also running a construction company in Islamabad DHA. We have constructed many houses here, few of them were belong to overseas Pakistanis. They want to rent them out but issue was same that no one here to look after and collect the rent, its not the problem that there is no honest person problem is that mostly honest person are noble and they don't want to indulge in any dispute, because it any situation you will blame him. Some of my friends ask me to do so,I agreed on that simple condition that you will rent it out I only collect and deposit the rent in account, believe me its also a huge headache, so please stop to blaming Pakistan that there is no Honest person in country, infect They have no spare time for you. Thanks.

I was googling today phase 8 and location of Rafi block also looks nice as its near to defense villas etc. Also in the Rafi block plot size is 8 Marla 30X60 prices are slightly less than abu bakar block..

Anis bahi since you are our eyes for now so please advise on this as well.
