Cheap Housing Schemes for Long Term Investment in Islamabad
Islamabad is the most attractive place for property investment due to the fact that it has one of the largest real estate market in Pakistan. This capital city is going through massive developments as thousands of acres of land is lying unused in its zone 2 and zone 4. Since the emergence of Cooperative Housing Schemes, concept of towns is phasing out and major investors have entered into the housing development business. Seeing the profit potential and some other factors including better development standards, life amenities, safety of investment and security conditions, millions of people consider Islamabad as the best place for investment across Pakistan.
If you are an average person looking to invest somewhere in Islamabad, you will be baffled to know the property prices which are beyond affordability for a common man. So, the second thought comes in your mind to invest in a cheap housing scheme where you will be able to earn good profit after a certain period of time. There are so many property investment options available in overall Islamabad that it is quite difficult to decide as to which housing scheme can render good profit and is worth investment.
You should also know the risks involved in low cost investments like frauds, illegal schemes, encroachments and non-development, so it is better to do some research and get proper information about the housing scheme where you are going to invest your hard-earned money.

DHA Phase 2 Extension
DHA Phase 2 Extension is located next to DHA Phase 2 Ex-Commoners Town Blocks K,L,M,N and P. This whole scheme once belonged to Commoners Town which later acquired by DHA Islamabad. Some of the area was included in DHA phase 2 which is called DHA Phase 2 Ex-Commoners Town, and the remaining area is called DHA Phase 2 Extension.
This project will have direct access from DHA Expressway which connects DHA Valley with Islamabad Highway, so the location of this scheme is quite appealing.

You can get 1 kanal open certificates without development charges paid at as low as 18 lac rupees.
This investment will take about 5 or more years to mature as DHA is famous for slow development progress in all of its schemes. Currently DHA is developing some blocks of DHA Phase 2 Ex-Commoners Town, and DHA Phase 1-Extension (DHA Phase 4), hence DHA Phase 2 Extension seems to take about 5+ years to mature.
