Major Regulatory Crackdown On "Illegal" Societies

 The Capital Development Authority (CDA) and other provincial bodies have intensified a massive crackdown on unauthorized housing schemes. In Islamabad, the CDA recently issued final show-cause notices to several high-profile developments (like Shaheen Town and others in Zone IV and V) for misleading marketing and lack of LOP (Layout Plan) approvals. ● Investor Warning: Authorities are urging buyers to verify NOCs (No Objection Certificates) before investing, as the government moves to "clean up" the sector to attract foreign and overseas investment. ● SECP Integration: The SECP is now moving to make registration mandatory for all real estate developers to curb fraud.
