Investing in property back home is a dream for many overseas Pakistanis.

In this guide, Saiban Associates walks you through each step of the property-buying process to make it simple, secure, and successful for overseas investors.
Why Should Overseas Pakistanis Invest in Real Estate?
Pakistan’s real estate market continues to grow, offering high potential returns and increasing opportunities in urban developments. Here's why overseas investors are actively investing:
- Attractive property prices compared to international markets
- Strong rental yields and resale potential
- Growing demand for modern housing in cities like Lahore, Islamabad, and Karachi
- Government incentives and simplified banking channels for overseas buyers
Step-by-Step Process for Buying Property from Abroad
Step 1: Define Your Investment Goals
Are you buying for personal use, rental income, or future resale? This decision will determine whether you should invest in residential plots, serviced apartments, or commercial units.
Step 2: Choose a Trusted Real Estate Consultant
Working with a verified agency is crucial. Saiban Associates specializes in assisting overseas clients with secure, verified, and approved property deals in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, and Dubai.
Step 3: Shortlist Projects with Legal Approvals
Always choose properties that have proper NOCs (No Objection Certificates) and are approved by authorities like LDA, CDA, or SBCA. Saiban Associates only deals in vetted projects with complete documentation.
Step 4: Virtual Tours and Detailed Consultation
Our team offers virtual tours, video calls, and complete project presentations so you can evaluate options without traveling to Pakistan.
Step 5: Documentation and Booking
Once you finalize a property, we assist with all booking formalities, including:
- Booking form

Step 6: Make Payment via Legal Channels
For overseas buyers, payments should be made through legal remittance channels to avoid any issues. We provide our clients with secure banking options and official receipts for every transaction.
Step 7: Get Allotment & Possession
After successful booking and payment, you’ll receive an allotment letter and project timeline. Once completed, possession is handed over as per the schedule.
