We are back again with a review of another absolutely awesome day that definitely surpassed everyone’s expectations and set a new benchmark for what a successful event truly means! Day 2 of the Zameen.com Property Expo 2017 (Karachi) was literally something for Team Zameen to be proud of and we are also very proud of the people living in the city by the sea for using their Sunday so productively!

At 10 o’clock it was rise and shine for Karachi, as people began to throng to the Expo Centre in multitudes. The crowd got thicker short after and property fever was clearly palpable. In short, Karachiites were all geared up to shop property on Sunday.

Highlights of the day

Our honourable chief guest for Day 2, Mr Mohsin Sheikhani, Chairman of the Association of Builders and Developers of Pakistan, arrived at the venue and visited many stalls. Needless to say, he was full of praise for the event!

Zameen.com CEO Zeeshan Ali Khan also presented a commemorative shield to him as a token of appreciation.

As the turnout was impressive right from the get-go, it literally seemed that Karachi was waiting to wake up and come to the expo! People from different walks of life came to the venue and when we said it would be a family event, we surely meant it! Men, women, children, senior citizens attended the event and most of them were highly proactive in discussing real estate.

I am sure all visitors were glad to have attended the event, as there were some fantabulously lucrative deals on offer! Even we were happy to see you all there!

Speaking of families, how can we forget children? Although new to the property world (and the world in general as well), our little ones deserve to have fun wherever they go. Hence, we had fun activities for them as well.

As always, people enjoyed posing in our house-shaped photo frame. Even senior citizens stopped by to get themselves pictured and we simply loved that!

Waseem Uddin Ansari,  the Hum Sab Umeed Se Hain star, was the highlight of the second day as well. Remember Pervez Musharraf? Waseem does look like him, don’t you agree?

The Wheel of Fortune continued to spin throughout and people won exciting prizes just by spinning the wheel.

Even on Day 2, the food courts served scrumptious meals to visitors. While people had detailed discussions on property-related matters, they also quelled their appetite by feasting on delicious food items .

Towards the end of the event, we conducted a lucky draw to give away LED televisions, microwave ovens, smartphones and power banks to the lucky winners.

Very Happy Visitors

The visitors of our expos are always very friendly and their spirits are usually skyrocketing! It was no different for Karachi on this colder-than-usual Sunday! This is what our happy visitors told us:

“I came here to find potential investment options in Scheme 33 and Malir Cantt and I appreciate the way you guys have organised this event on such a grand scale in Karachi,” said Meraj Uddin.

Thank you Meraj, this event was actually organised for people like you!

People attended the event to quell their different real estate-related needs. We met Nadeem Mukhtar who joined the party with his family to find some good apartment options in North Nazimabad. Mukhtar said that such events should be held from time to time because they spread awareness about the property market.

Azhar Ali khan attended the event with his wife to find a potential investment option for the long term. “We plan to migrate to Canada, but before that we want to invest in Gwadar and this was the reason we came here,” said Khan.

Syeda Nabeela (standing on right in the picture below) and her family won exciting prices by spinning the Wheel of Fortune. Nabeela, we hope you enjoyed the event!

Excited Exhibitors

Our exhibitors were super excited about the turnout and had a lot of positive things to say about the event.

“We have received a stupendous response here.  I am feeling tired after giving a multitude of presentations to the clients. I must say that my decision to exhibit at the expo proved to be worthwhile,” said Muhammad Sultan Ali of Homeland Enterprises.

Ali renders his services in Bahria Town Karachi. If you plan to invest in the project, we suggest you give Ali a call at 03218282387.

Among other prominent exhibitors, DHA Bahawalpur was also part of the property mania this weekend. We spoke with Major Rai Zameer, who is the marketing director of DHA Bahawalpur, and found him totally gratified. “I believe this event is better than those organised in Lahore and Islamabad. The people of Karachi have shown immense interest in the project because we have a sub-transfer office of DHA Bahawalpur here,” said Zameer.

He told us that DHA Bahawalpur will be balloted in 2017 and possession will be handed over in 2018. He also unveiled that the DHA plans to launch villas, farmhouses and a dedicated block for overseas Pakistanis in DHA Bahawalpur in the time to come. So, if you have not yet invested in DHA Bahawalpur, you must do so now!

We also met Property Legends CEO Rizwan Ahmed Mughal, who praised the visitor turnout at the event. About Bahria Town Karachi he said: “Possession has been handed over in Precinct I, Midway Commercial and also for Quaid Villas. Now Bahria Town plans to grant possession for Iqbal Villas and Bahria Apartments in the near future.” He also told us that many developers have launched their new projects in Bahria Town Karachi. You can contact Mughal at 03008229607.

Imran Wasi Sheikh of Investor’s World had a conversation with us. He deals in DHA City Karachi and about the project, he said: “Though property prices are stable in the locality currently, they will most likely increase within three months.” If you have any queries regarding DHA City Karachi, you can contact Sheikh at 03218221133.

Gwadar is a hotbed of investment these days and many exhibitors showcased real estate projects in the city at the event. According to Commander Muneeb Aslam of AZ Estate & Builders, Singhar Housing Scheme is the best option for investment in Gwadar because it boasts an excellent location and is regarded as the DHA and Clifton of Gwadar. He said that many countries will benefit from the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor and people are investing in Gwadar because they expect property prices to increase magnanimously here in the future. If you too want to invest in Gwadar, you can reach Aslam at 03218220321.

DHA Multan was one of the attractions at the event. Junaid Bodla of Bodla Builders & Developers told us that the price of 1-kanal plot files in DHA Multan increased PKR 1.1 million in the last 22 days. You should also invest here and if you need to contact Bodla in this regard, give him a call at 03002555340.

Meet our CEO Zeeshan Ali Khan

While Team Zameen is very hardworking and consists of over 750 people, our CEO Mr Zeeshan Ali Khan is also just as energetic and full of vigour!

About the event, he said, ” This is the most successful expo till date as we have received an overwhelming response! However, we will definitely endeavour to achieve more in the future, InshaaAllah. I am highly satisfied that Zameen.com is now a prominent and well-established brand in Karachi as well as other cities!”
