Overseas Pakistanis: How to Buy a Plot in Lahore from Abroad

Buying a plot in Lahore while living abroad is easier than ever, but it still needs care. The first step is choosing a trusted dealer who can verify the property on the ground and share real photos, documents and video walkthroughs.

Always verify the title with the relevant authority — the society office and LDA. Ask for the allotment letter, NDC (No Demand Certificate) and transfer history before paying any token money.

Overseas Pakistanis can pay through a Roshan Digital Account (RDA), which offers a fully digital, legal channel for property payments. Keep every receipt and bank confirmation for your records.

Finally, you can transfer property through a special power of attorney (SPA) attested by the Pakistani embassy or consulate, so a trusted family member can complete the transfer on your behalf.
