Dear experts,
I am considering investing in commercial real estate in the Islamabad/Pindi area so that I can get a regular income stream through rent. I can invest from 1 to 1.5 crore. Since I am a novice in this field, I would appreciate advice from experts on this forum on the following points:
1) What are the different ways of investing in commercial real estate e.g. (a) Buying a commercial plot, building a plaza and renting out or (b) Buying a shop in an existing plaza/shopping mall or (c) Buying an office space or (d) Any other.
2) What are the options/locations currently available in Isb/Pindi area that you would advise for good returns.
3) Where or how can I get the proper awareness about investing in commercial real estate, buying process, problems to look out for, issues during contract write-up, etc.
Best regards.
For immediate rental income,you should go for a good sized shop at the decent locality with growing population…E-11 or bahria town civic center can work for you.Rental income at both the places is very handsome.
Saadi Sb,
Thanks for reply. What is the range of rental that is possible in E-11 with my budget? I suppose you are referring to a shop in existing plazas.
Same question I would ask regarding Bahria Civic Centre.
Thanks for your time.
