Why Invest in Lahore Smart City?
If you are wondering whether it is worthy and safe to invest in the newly launched project, we have summarized a few points here to help you make an informed decision.
Sound Developer
Lahore Smart City is being developed by Habib Rafiq (Pvt) Limited which is one of the largest real estate developers of Pakistan. Their successful projects include Royal Orchard Multan and Capital Smart City Islamabad.
Capital Smart City Islamabad has seen a huge success in the real estate market of Islamabad being the most popular choice among investors and end consumers. Check out the detailed Review of Capital Smart City here.
Excellent Opportunity for High Return on Investment
The extended time period of 60 days (instead of 30 days) between booking and confirmation is largely beneficial for short-term investors who wish to earn capital gains with minimum possible initial investment.
Learn from the Past
The prices of Lahore project are very similar to the initial launching prices of Capital Smart City. In a very short time period, the list price (or booking price) was increased by the company due to overwhelming response of the market (See Capital Smart City – All About Prices for details).
For example, the price of 5 marla residential plot started from Rs. 1,700,000 in mid 2017 to Rs. 2,415,000. Due to the increase in company’s price, the demand of old files (files purchased at old rates) increases in the market resulting in high profits. That’s why, the investors earned considerable profits through resale of the files in the market.
Therefore, we predict that the prices of Smart City Lahore will rise sooner than you can imagine!
Higher Demand, Higher Price

Majority of our investors kept asking about the launch and details of the Lahore project so that they don’t miss out on the short opportunity window. Why do we tell you this?
Well, this means that investors have been ready with their funds to invest in this project. The high demand combined with the limited supply will boost the prices sooner than we can imagine as we saw in the case of 2.5 marla commercials and 3.5 marla residential plots Harmony Park block in Islamabad chapter.

NOC Approved by LDA
Lahore Smart City has managed to achieve a huge milestone. Yes, you heard it right. Lahore Development Authority has approved the NOC of Lahore Smart City.
The process of acquiring NOC was underway for almost the last six months. The housings society has achieved the NOC in the shortest interval. Now that the housing society has got its NOC, it is now officially a legal and authorized housing society.
Since the acquisition of NOC makes a housing society legal, therefore it makes investment in Lahore Smart City valuable and safe. This new development is likely to increase the value of plots in society. Therefore, the prices of plots in the society are expected to rise sharply
