- Transfer of Ownership Mechanism: Seller Signs verification form along with his CNIC & Allotment letter.

- Where does the Transfer take place: DHA head office phase 6 lahore

- In context Competing Housing Projects (different from neighboring Housing Projects): It is really hard to establish a direct competitor as DHA holds a benchmark status in housing projects all over Pakistan. One could argue that, when it comes to housing projects, some competitors by a small margin are Bahria Town Lahore, and Lake City. Otherwise, mostly the market compares DHA with residential areas like Model Town, Askaris, and LHR Cantt.
