There are certain cities around the world where most of the rich folks reside, given their staggeringly high prices and environment.

    • wellsaid brother , this is one of root causes of pakistan current image in world…. our own people so careless and shortsighted….

  • You can’t even buy a 450SqM house in F sector of Islamabad either… Or can you even buy a plot of approx 100SqM in Blue Area, Gulberg or Mall Road Lhr or similar area in any metro city??? Dear this is a very subjective topic… Property in Pakistan is a lot more costly as compared to most places in the world.

    E.g, one can buy a very nice house of above 1 kanal in a posh area of Canada, USA under 3 crore pkr. You can’t even think of buying a 10marla old bhoot bangla in Islamabad in the same price. Property rates in Pakistan are already over inflated that too on fake grounds.
