Property scams are nothing new and have been going around for a long time. In countries like Pakistan, these scams are happening at a much alarming rate. While the government is trying its best to control this menace, buyers need to be aware too. They must ensure that any property they are buying has the required supporting legal documents. Unfortunately, many people invest their hard-earned money in housing societies and later find out that it is illegal.
If you are living in the twin cities, you need to check the Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) and Capital Development Authority (CDA) websites for legal/illegal housing authorities. They regularly update their website to let prospective buyers know about the legality of a housing authority. Housing societies like Ghouri Town (Islamabad Expressway), Gulberg Town (Phase-I & II) (Lehtrar Road) and Gulf Residencia (Lehtrar Road) are all illegal.
