Launch of New 'Overseas Block' in Phase 1 with 2-Year Payment Plan

Etihad Town has launched a new 'Overseas Block' within its fully developed Phase 1 on Main Raiwind Road. The launch event took place in early March 2026. The block offers premium 5 and 10 Marla residential plots exclusively under a 2-year easy installment payment plan, targeting both local and overseas Pakistani investors. The location is prime, situated in an already inhabited and commercially active part of the society.

Updated Payment Plan and Price Details for Phase 1 Overseas Block

Detailed payment plan for the newly launched Overseas Block has been revealed. A 5 Marla plot is priced at PKR 12 million total, with a 20% down payment and 19 monthly installments of PKR 225,000. A 10 Marla plot costs PKR 22 million total, with installments of PKR 412,000. The plan includes development charges, with premiums for corner and park-facing plots. This installment offering is notable as most of Phase 1 is now traded on a cash-only basis in the secondary market.

Strategic Market Analysis and Growth Outlook for Phase 1

A comprehensive strategic analysis highlights that Etihad Town Phase 1 has transitioned into a mature, inhabited urban ecosystem with over 1,000 families. The project, 100% LDA-approved, has seen property values appreciate by approximately 300% since its 2017 launch. The analysis projects continued stable growth driven by factors like the completion of Lahore Ring Road SL-4 in March 2026 and the operationalization of Pine Avenue Road. The society is positioned as a benchmark for modern urban living with strong investment fundamentals.
