Current Status and Development Timeline
As of December 2024, Gulberg Dream Heights is still under active development, with construction progressing steadily. Phase 1 of the development is nearing completion, and residents are expected to begin moving in within the next year or two (estimated completion by 2025-2026).
- Completion Timeline: Construction is taking place in phases, and the first phase of residential units is expected to be ready for possession in the coming months.
- No New Registrations: As the project remains exclusive to IB employees, there is currently no opportunity for outsiders to register, buy, or sell properties within the development.
Investment Potential (For IB Employees)
Although Gulberg Dream Heights is exclusive to IB employees, it offers strong investment potential for those who are eligible:
- Capital Appreciation: With the growing development of Gulberg Green and Islamabad’s expanding infrastructure, the value of properties in this area is expected to appreciate in the coming years.
- Rental Yields: Once the project is fully completed, those who are eligible to purchase a unit may benefit from strong rental income by renting out their apartments.
The real estate market in Gulberg Green is likely to grow, providing solid long-term benefits for IB employees who secure a unit in this development.
Exclusivity and Restrictions
As mentioned, Gulberg Dream Heights is an exclusive project for IB employees. This means that:
- The project is closed to the general public, with no option for outsiders to book or buy property.
- Property sales and purchases are strictly regulated, and the only eligible buyers are those working for the Intelligence Bureau and who are members of the Intelligence Bureau Employees Cooperative Housing Society (IBECHS).
Because of this exclusivity, the project offers limited availability, and residents can only transfer their properties within the IB employee community, ensuring that the units remain in the hands of those they were intended for.
