Investment apartment/flats islamabad

Salam brothers,

I have been reviewing previous posts on this forum and trying to get some answers. Please help me.

I am looking for a apartment/flats in islamabad for investment income opportunity. I am an overseas pakistani. Can someone please recommend some sectors/areas (cda, bharia, anchorage, dha).

Below are the key things to note:

1. My budget is between 25,000usd to 30,000 usd (some flexibility).

2. My investment must be absolutely "secure", meaning clean transfer, no plot registry issues or ownership problems.

3. Good possibility of rental and roi.

4. Recommend any honest property management company that can find renters and collect rent.

I know this too much but, any help will be appreciated. This is my first investment so want to do all my research.

Dear Rizwan,

You must buy on ground and ready to rent property do not get trapped on charming rental returns on under developed building. Areas to explore for apartments would be:

Bahria Town Phase 4 Civic Center Apartments

Bahria Town Phase 8 Safari home

Bahria Town Awami Apartments (Cheapest Option)

Apartments in Gulberg Greens

PHA Aparments - Hard to find

Life Style Apartments C and D type. Higher on your budget but best returns.

Studio Apartment in F-11 Islamabad.

Dear Rizwan,

You may check out following option. I heard these apartments have good rental income.

Wasalam Khalid and ForYou Brother.

You have given me good responses, and I will definatly follow up on your advice.

One last question, do you know of any reputable Property Management company (Individual) that you have dealt with in Islamabad that can manage and collect rent of the property say in my absence.

I am looking for someone whom I can trust, wont scam me. I am willing to pay, but its hard to trust anyone in Pak with your asset. Can any of you provide some guidance.

Dear Rizwan,

I know one person, and I am having my property related business via him since few years, because I lived abroad. I find him nice and honest but obviously you cannot trust blindly. If you like I can introduce you to him.

Best regards

Yes brother if you can please provide his name and contact it will be helpful. If you want you can send me his information at ra03ra@yahoo.com.

Greatly appreciate your help and advice.

Dear Rizwan,

You can whatsapp him on +923325550969.

Best regards

Brothers can you share your experiences on who is responsible for upkeep and maintenance of apartments and how much charges are involved. Also what is the average net rental % income to owner after all deductions. Any other related experiences

Awaiting guidance from experienced members on pros and cons of buying apartment for rental income/capital appreciation vs buying a shop

Dear Rizwan, I have dropped you a note on your email for property management services.
