Lake City offers possession in M2 (A) – where is the society headed?
Lake City is one of the most sought after housing projects on Raiwind Road and now enjoys excellent access because of the development of Alternate Route. Possession is handed over for 10-marla plots in Block M2 (A) of the society on Friday September 9, 2016, which probably means that the block will now be approached by home buyers instead of investors.
Usually, property prices in a particular locality experience a jump after possession, and the same can be said for M2 (A). Please the see table below to have an idea of prices before and after possession:
| Plot category | Price range before possession | Price range after possession |
| 10 marla | PKR 7,000,000 to PKR 8,000,000 | PKR 8,000,000 to PKR 9,000,000 |
As you can see that prices of 10-marla plots in the locality have increased by PKR 10,000,00 after possession and it is expected that these plots will hit PKR 10,000,000 mark within 6 months or so because of the fact that this sector is adjacent to Ring Road.
Previously Lake City offered possession of 5-Marla plots in sector M7(b) where prices are now around 4.5 Million +

Which blocks are next in line for possession?
It is expected that Blocks M3 (a) will get possession in coming month, however, no official statement has been given by Lake City in this regard.
Development work is almost complete in both blocks, located along the Alternate Route. Property prices have already increased manifold in these blocks, but there is still a room for further growth. The table below will give you an idea of current prices in the said blocks:
| Block M3(a) | |
| 12 marla | PKR 7,500,000 to PKR 8,500,000 |
| 14 marla | PKR 8500,000 to PKR 9,000,000 |
| 1 kanal | PKR 10,500,000 to PKR 12,500,000 |
On the other hand, possession for 5-marla plots will be handed over in Block M7(c) within 6 months. Currently, the market value of on-ground plots in the block is PKR 3,500,000 and you can expect a price surge upon possession for this particular plot category.
Though 5-, 7- and 10-marla plot files are up for grabs on instalments in Lake City, if you are still on the lookout for on-ground plots, you need to head to M8, where 5- and 7-marla plots are available on cash payment for PKR 3,000,000 to 3,500,000 and 3,800,000 to 4500,000 respectively. However, the area is undeveloped and Lake City will take some years to complete development work in the block
