Clifton

In Clifton, two bed apartments generally trade around PKR 2.5 to 5 crore, with larger four and five bed sea facing homes running well past PKR 7.5 crore. Asking rates sit near PKR 30,000 to 45,000 per sqft, and higher for a direct sea view. These are asking index figures and indicative only, so verify current pricing per building and floor before you commit.

Blocks 2, 4 and 5 command the clearest premium, and Block 8 is prized for sea facing floors near Boat Basin and Do Talwar. The seafront belt from Blocks 1 through 9 benefits from Sea View, Dolmen Mall Clifton and central coastal access. View floors carry a distinct premium, so confirm the exact block, floor and view when you compare prices.

Listed Clifton stock leans heavily toward Saima Group, with ready apartments in Block 2 and sea facing Block 8 trading in the resale market on cash or bank finance. There is also off plan and under construction supply from developers active on the seafront, typically sold on a staged payment plan of a down payment, instalments through construction and a balance near handover. Project names, prices and payment terms shift often, so treat any figure as indicative and verify the current plan directly with the developer.

Given the elevated capital base in Clifton, gross yields typically sit in a broad range of roughly 4 to 6 percent, and vary with furnishing, floor and view. The prime seafront address and the Dolmen Mall Clifton catchment support steady tenant demand, which suits both rental income and prestige end use. These are directional estimates and indicative only, so verify current rents and asking prices for the specific building before you rely on them.

Budget beyond the headline price for the Pakistan cost stack, which is charged on the DC rate and the FBR notified value rather than the deal price. Expect stamp duty, capital value tax, a town or registration fee, FBR section 236K withholding that is higher for non filers, plus a society or sub registrar transfer fee and around 1 percent agent commission. On a Clifton apartment these add up materially given the high base. All rates are indicative, so verify the current schedule with the relevant sub registrar and a tax advisor before you close.
