DHA Lahore Phase 5 & 6 Price Guide for 2026

Plot rates of PKR 35–45 lakh per marla and 10 Marla house prices of PKR 5–7.5 Crore: what buyers should know before negotiating in Lahore's premium Defence sectors.

DHA Lahore Phases 5 and 6 remain the city's liquidity benchmarks. Through late 2025 and into 2026, finished 10 Marla homes commonly change hands between PKR 5 and 7.5 Crore, while vacant plot rates cluster around PKR 35–45 lakh per marla depending on street width, corner status, and park facing.

End-users still dominate Phase 5 demand thanks to mature parks, schools, and commercial centres. Phase 6 attracts buyers seeking slightly newer stock without leaving the Defence brand. Overseas Pakistanis should budget for renovation contingencies of 8–12% on older houses and verify mutation and society dues before token money.

For investors, capital appreciation is steadier than cashflow — rental yields on large houses trail Gulberg apartments. If yield is the goal, consider pairing a smaller Defence holding with a Gulberg rental unit rather than stretching for a kanal home solely for rent.
