Houses for Sale — common questions
What documents should I check before buying a house in Pakistan?
Verify the original Fard (ownership record), Registry (sale deed), and Mutation (transfer of ownership) in the buyer’s name. Also ask for a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the local development authority if the house is in a planned society.
How much does a typical 3-bedroom house cost in major cities?
In Lahore, a 3-bedroom house can range from PKR 12 million to PKR 35 million depending on location and condition. In Karachi, prices start around PKR 8 million and go up to PKR 25 million. Islamabad’s 3-bedroom houses usually start at PKR 10 million.
Can I buy a house without visiting it first?
It’s risky. Always visit the property to check the structure, water supply, and neighborhood. If you’re out of town, hire a trusted local agent or family member to inspect it for you.
What’s the difference between a registry and a Fard?
Registry is the legal sale deed proving ownership transfer, while Fard is the land record showing current ownership details. Both are required for a safe property purchase.
Are there any hidden costs when buying a house in Pakistan?
Yes. Besides the sale price, expect to pay stamp duty (1-2% of property value), registration fees (1-3%), and sometimes agent commission (2-5%). Societies may also charge transfer or development fees.
How do I check if a house is legally clear before buying?
Visit the local land record office (Tehsil or Patwari) with the property’s survey number to verify ownership. Also check for any pending loans or court cases on the property.
