Lahore housing in August 2026 is a DHA story. Of 300 active house-for-sale listings with verified prices, 280 sit inside Defence Housing Authority phases. The remaining inventory is scattered across Johar Town, Gulberg, and Model Town in quantities too small for statistical analysis.
This concentration gives buyers a clean phase-by-phase price map. Phase 6 sits at the top with 53 houses and a median of 87 lakh per marla, followed by Phase 8 at 75 lakh. Phases 1 through 4 form the value tier between 38 and 45 lakh per marla; Phase 1 is the clearest bargain, offering established streets at half the Phase 6 rate.
Size-band pricing mirrors Islamabad closely: a 5-marla house medians at 2.65 crore, while 1-kanal homes median at 9.5 crore versus 12.9 crore in the capital - a 26 percent discount for a comparable plot footprint. This gap widens at 2-kanal: Lahore median is 17.5 crore against Islamabad 54 crore, reflecting the capital scarcity premium in sectors with no new land supply.
