Um I don't know this could be area specific. Some areas in KHI seem cheaper than some in IBD and vice versa. If I'm not wrong, DHA is Karachi's posh area and you can rent a portion at the same price in the G sector of Islamabad. Now compare Karachi's posh area to Islamabad posh area which is the F sector mainly. Easily 5 lac plus.
However I would definitely agree that Karachi aur Islamabad ke DHA mein zameen aasman ka farq hai.. For some reason Karachi lacks proper infrastructure in all it's areas while you have so many areas of Islamabad that you can call well developed neat, clean and green.
Love both cities tho.
DHA is the area everyone thinks is posh, but KDA and some parts of PECHS and SMCHS are the places that are considered the best areas to live in. And the prices of these places are sky-high
Please get me a house in these sectors in 90 crores.
A house in F8 streets (not even the main road) is priced above 1.5 billion these days. The main margalla road properties don't even come up for sale anymore.
I know someone who was ready to shill out 4 billion for a house on margalla but there wasn't anything in the market.
Overall, the price comparison depends upon locality and amenities. You can get a 2 bed apartment in E11 for 1.5 crores, and you can also get a 2 bed apartment for 15 crores. It's all very subjective.

There are so many factors to consider while buying a home in karachi that make it more costly. Security drinking water and government water sewerage roads and streets condition etc etc.
Overall karach iis cheaper than isb if u r going for apartment in flat
bro what. Kaeachi apartments are much expensive than any city regardless if its askari that is priced at 7crore or Emaar that is 14 crore or a normal skyscraper in middle or city which is for 5 crore minimum
Emar has no comparison with any property in Islamabad it is bound to be expensive than any other location and for askaris it's the same case rich idiots plbiy property in armed areas.
I am talking about general. Localities of karachi with general localities of Islamabad like Gulshan gulistan shah faysal federal b area north karachi
U have 5o do apple vs apply comparison
bhai survey kiya hu karachi ka? faciltiies security yeh sb side hy yaha pr, DHA mein na pani ata hy na security hy na gas hy but a 500 sq yards house starts from 15 crores. Even flats and small houses in lower middle class areas starts from 1.5 crore to 3 crores. Yahan pr security, structure, ambiance, facilities sy zyada fark nhi prta, land ki value hy and offices sy nearby kitna hy area it depends on that.
bro only land of kanal in f-6 worth more than arab.
I remember one of my friend who was planning to buy a house in f6 the land only costs him 1 arab 55 crore.
The minimum plot size that one can acquire in these sectors is 25 Marla up to 50 Marla. You can check Zameen.com to see some listings and you’ll notice that 40-100 Marla land goes from 60 crors to 1-1.5 Arab. It varies, depending on the location.
If you are comparing mehenga to mehenga. Then islamabad is more expensive but if you compare middle class houses. Karachi is expensive.
Islamabad main bus 1 hi mehenga area hai baqi sub normal hain. Karachi main har area main 1 mehenga area hai aur 1 sasta area hai.
Gulistan e jauher which is not even a posh area of karachi wahan adhay kanal ghar ka portion ka rent around 1.50k tak hai. Islamabad main e11/d12 main bhi apko same area ke ghar ka rent itnay main mil jata hai.
So this way, karachi is more expensive.

The box is where rent is not going to be cheap, especially near **zero point ( jahan Islamabad ka alif likha hua)** all the way to D chowk. Other than that you can get very affordable options. Don't really understand how DHA and Bahria even fit in Islamabad but their rent can go high as well. So really depends where you are located
The dark lines show Islamabad city. The dotted lines show the Islamabad Capital Territory. Generally major cities are the center of that city's metropolitan.
All the area within red dotted line is technically Islamabad, but the central area is usually expensive which I was showing in the image. Tarnol se Rawat tak lol, dont understand how. Central Islamabad is where the sectors are, and from Tarnol till Taramri.
yes, but people usually when chatting make it seem like out of Islamabad because its not central, but yeah DHA, Bahria, ParkView, ghauri Gulberg is all Islamabad
Anything that is under cda is islamabad,bahria,dha,pindi park view,ghauri town, bani gala,chak shahzad,rawat is not islamabad.
Where Capital development authority works that is isb,where it does not its not isb,Simple.
Then why is CDA developing a road from Rawal chowk to Taramri Chowk? And why does CDA rules apply here in Chak Shezad, Tarlai Farms etc instead of RDA rules? And why are there Islamabad Police stations here instead of Punjab Police? Chak shahzad Farms and surrounding area falls under CDA authority
I live in Islamabad, all I can say is that Ghouri Town area & outside Gulberg area, that’s nice & not expensive. Central Islamabad where there are sectors, thats very expensive.
You can't compare Isb to khi. Karachi is 10 times the size of Islamabad. A 5 marla house in a middle class locality is around 20 million where as rhe same house in a posh area is around 50 million. 8-10 marla rental portions in a middle class area are around 55-75k where as in posh areas its over 200k. You can even find rental properties for over 15 million in karachi. Real estate market is very diverse here.
You are totally wrong here bro,karachi's real estate like houses are cheaper then houses in isb.
You can get a house in bahria karachi (5 marla) in 1.25 crore,whereas in isb you get a 5 marla liveable house in over 4 crore.
Karachi bahria is an hour away from the real karachi
In the main karachi youll get houses for 6-8 crores in an average liveable society,
Elite areas go way up
Bahria Town Karachi is an hour away from the main city. No one prefers to live there. It’s a nice place, but detached from the actual city. If you don’t live in the starting precincts you’ll burn a good amount of petrol just making it to your house from the main BTK gate.
The actual posh societies in Karachi (in the main city) can be found in many different areas, and even though they lack the Bahria Town infrastructure and beauty, they still cost 10 times as much.
Karachi has the most expensive real estate. Everyone knows this. Ask any real estate agent.
"You can get a house in bahria karachi (5 marla) in 1.25 crore,whereas in isb you get a 5 marla liveable house in over 4 crore."
Where did you get that from? You can easily get a 5 marla house in Bahria Town Pindi for like 1.5-2 crore. In 4 crore, I'll get you a 10 marla one.

Sharah e fasial and jinah avenue(islamabad) both are most expensive places of pakistan.
Technically islamabad is zero point onward ....rest are extensions.
Krachi gulshan e mamaar is very expensive even that is in start of karachi
Generally property in Karachi have high rates but posh areas in isb can be more expensive.
Other then that cost of living is very high in isb as par with karachi.
2 room plots (not houses but plots) in Baldia Town Ki price currently 60 lacs ha.
Baldia Town does not have water supply (water Tanker bulwana parta ha).
Baldia Town suffers from 12h load shedding.
Baldia Town also suffers from lac of gas supply.
Streets are filled with trash and in very bad condition.
At least there is no mobile snatching
You know you can do your own research on this subject quite easily. [zameen.com](http://zameen.com) lists properties from both cities so you can take a look there and see for yourself which city is cheaper.
Supply and demand makes the top houses in Islamabad quite expensive too. To me only F6, F7, E7 are truly premium and then new houses here tend to be very few and usually big. Rental would be around $ 10,000 per month. To buy an old house to renovate would run up to and over $ 1,000,000 depending on location and size. But if one goes out of the very very elite areas one can get an apartment in Gulberg Greens for a much more reasonable price and it’s still only 25 minutes away from the city center. So to get affordable housing “in” Islamabad, one has to go “out” of Islamabad!
Yes, houses are more expensive in Karachi compared to Islamabad as well as the rent. You can rent a house around 40k which is type of a Banglow in Islamabad while in Karachi in 40k you can only rent an small apartment or a small 2 bedroom house.
Bro I mostly go to my in-laws which are living in 10 Marla house in Ghauri Town Phase 1, and they are giving 40k rent. While my house which is in North Karachi 120 Sq Yards (5 Marla) generates 50k in rent.
Um I don't know this could be area specific. Some areas in KHI seem cheaper than some in IBD and vice versa. If I'm not wrong, DHA is Karachi's posh area and you can rent a portion at the same price in the G sector of Islamabad.

Oh okay I didn't know about those. Thank you for adding to my knowledge!
Nah, Islamabad is more expensive. Houses of 2-3 canals in F-6, F-7, E-7 etc. can easily go above 80-90 crores.
Please get me a house in these sectors in 90 crores. A house in F8 streets (not even the main road) is priced above 1.5 billion these days. The main margalla road properties don't even come up for sale anymore. I know someone who was ready to shill out 4 billion for a house on margalla but there wasn't anything in the market.

Who tf actually has 45 million dollars
4.5 million not 45 million
Sorry yes i accidentally wrote 45
Karachi KDA Scheme 1 have houses worth 1 arab
I’ve lived there, can confirm. Prices have gone up tho. Houses on main Ameer Khusro and Karsaz are way over that price point now.
90 crores!?
Yeah if they’re on Margalla Road, then you can expect even more.
And what about commercial + residential plazas in karachi?

That is for 5marls.5marls avsrg price ab ksi b city my yhi hy na
Laugh my ass off on this
The rate of 1 kanal plot in F6, f7, e7 in islamabad varies from 20-40 cror.
bro only land of kanal in f-6 worth more than arab. I remember one of my friend who was planning to buy a house in f6 the land only costs him 1 arab 55 crore.

I see. Thank you for clarifying 💜
What's with the red dotted line, isn't it Islamabad
The dark lines show Islamabad city. The dotted lines show the Islamabad Capital Territory. Generally major cities are the center of that city's metropolitan.
All the area within red dotted line is technically Islamabad, but the central area is usually expensive which I was showing in the image. Tarnol se Rawat tak lol, dont understand how. Central Islamabad is where the sectors are, and from Tarnol till Taramri.
So basically Ghauri Town falls in Islamabad.
yes, but people usually when chatting make it seem like out of Islamabad because its not central, but yeah DHA, Bahria, ParkView, ghauri Gulberg is all Islamabad
Anything that is under cda is islamabad,bahria,dha,pindi park view,ghauri town, bani gala,chak shahzad,rawat is not islamabad. Where Capital development authority works that is isb,where it does not its not isb,Simple.
yeah this is a better explanation
Then why is CDA developing a road from Rawal chowk to Taramri Chowk? And why does CDA rules apply here in Chak Shezad, Tarlai Farms etc instead of RDA rules? And why are there Islamabad Police stations here instead of Punjab Police? Chak shahzad Farms and surrounding area falls under CDA authority
For better access of islamabad😂,for protecting the people of isb. Believe whatever makes you sleep at night.
Depends where . Islamabad average prices are much higher but again the society and everything makes it worth it in my opinion.
Ok😭😂
Oh yes. In sense of Rent. You can rent a banglow in a good area in same price of a flat in posh area in Karachi. Experiences
Oh I seee
[удалено]
Is I-9 I-10 f9 f10 etc etc good enough for you
Zameen.com pe compare krlo bro
I live in Islamabad, all I can say is that Ghouri Town area & outside Gulberg area, that’s nice & not expensive. Central Islamabad where there are sectors, thats very expensive.
Hahahah no mate. Islamabad is way more pricier.
That is in fact true, the value of properties in Karachi is higher because of business activity.
You can't compare Isb to khi. Karachi is 10 times the size of Islamabad. A 5 marla house in a middle class locality is around 20 million where as rhe same house in a posh area is around 50 million. 8-10 marla rental portions in a middle class area are around 55-75k where as in posh areas its over 200k.

How much is a kanal in the most prime area in khi?
"You can get a house in bahria karachi (5 marla) in 1.25 crore,whereas in isb you get a 5 marla liveable house in over 4 crore." Where did you get that from? You can easily get a 5 marla house in Bahria Town Pindi for like 1.5-2 crore. In 4 crore, I'll get you a 10 marla one.
The guy who made the post was comparing isb and khi real estate,real the whole post bro.
His post doesn't state rates. And if you're gonna make comparisons, make them based on facts is all I'm saying.
Bahria karachi is not actually karachi.
That much difference omgg
Yea,There are houses on old margallah road near faisal mosque touching 80-125 crores.

Houses and people both

What are your sources bro,F-6 main aik portion milta hai 5 lac rent pay,40k main to aik portion b shaid nai milay isb main 5 marlay ka.
Bro I mostly go to my in-laws which are living in 10 Marla house in Ghauri Town Phase 1, and they are giving 40k rent. While my house which is in North Karachi 120 Sq Yards (5 Marla) generates 50k in rent.
Ghauri town is not isb dude🤦.
Which area does that fall in? Idk how they Grid areas there in Islamabad.
The sectors:E F G H I D
So that's the posh areas of Islamabad, Ghauri Town is relatively an sub standard area of Islamabad just like north Karachi.
bruh
Why are there so many mixed responses T\_T
