Pros and Cons of Renting in Pakhowal Road
What you should know before moving
What's Great
- ✓A recognisable arterial with good connectivity
What to Watch Out For
- A ROAD, NOT A LOCALITY — seven rows on this sheet name one
- Two properties sharing the name can be kilometres apart
- Frontage and land behind it price completely differently
- The approving authority can change along the road
- CHECK THE COLONY APPROVAL STATUS with GLADA — under PAPRA 1995, amended in 2024, developing an unauthorised colony carries imprisonment and heavy fines, and buying into one affects services, finance and resale
