Invest in LahoreFrom the UAE
You are three hours and one time zone from home. For Pakistanis in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, buying verified Lahore property has never been closer — or simpler.
Dubai
Lahore
The closestcorridor home.
The UAE is the shortest bridge between the diaspora and Lahore: a direct flight of roughly three hours, and a clock that sits just one hour behind Pakistan. That proximity changes the practical experience of buying. A same-day call is easy, our office hours overlap almost entirely with yours, and if you do want to see a plot in person, it is a weekend — not an expedition.
That proximity also suits how the purchase actually works. You do the searching, verification and decision-making from the UAE — we shortlist, verify and send real video walkthroughs — and secure the property by sending token money online. The transfer itself is completed in person in Lahore, and for a buyer in Dubai that is a short trip rather than a major undertaking.

How payment works
Token online, balance at transfer
You send token money online to secure the property — to our account or the owner's. The balance is paid in person when you travel for the transfer, so your money stays with you until the property is signed over.
Abu Dhabi, Dubai —or entirely online
A Power of Attorney is central to owning Lahore property from abroad: it authorises a trusted representative to handle transfer paperwork, society procedures and registration on your behalf. In the UAE it must be attested by a Pakistani mission — the Embassy of Pakistan in Abu Dhabi, or the Consulate General of Pakistan in Dubai. You will need your valid passport or CNIC/NICOP, and for property matters the executants are generally expected to appear in person.
There is also now an online route. The Government of Pakistan has automated Power of Attorney: you apply online, NADRA verifies your identity, you pay a fee of around USD 36 per document, and the mission conducts the interview online — no counter visit. We will tell you which route fits your case and prepare the wording so it is accepted first time.
Frequently asked
Investing from the UAE — your questions, answered.
Practical, citable answers for Pakistanis in United Arab Emirates buying verified property in Lahore.
Can I choose and secure a Lahore property from Dubai?
Yes. Everything up to the transfer is handled from the UAE: we shortlist verified, LDA-approved options, confirm their legal standing, send real video walkthroughs and negotiate on your behalf, and you secure the property by sending token money online. The transfer itself is completed in person in Lahore — a short trip from Dubai — where you pay the balance.
Where do I get a Power of Attorney attested in the UAE?
At the Embassy of Pakistan in Abu Dhabi or the Consulate General of Pakistan in Dubai, with your valid passport or CNIC/NICOP. Pakistan also now offers an automated online Power of Attorney with NADRA verification and an online interview, for a fee of around USD 36 per document. We advise which route suits your situation.
How do I pay for a Lahore property from the UAE?
In two stages. You send the token money online — either to HS Estate's account or directly to the owner's account — which secures the property. The remaining balance is paid in person at the time of transfer, when you travel to Pakistan to complete it. That means the bulk of your money stays in your hands until the property is actually being signed over to you.
What time should I call HS Estate from Dubai?
Pakistan is one hour ahead of the UAE, so our hours overlap almost completely. We are open Saturday to Thursday, 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM Pakistan time — that is 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM in Dubai — and closed on Fridays.
Which Lahore societies suit UAE-based investors?
Bahria Town Lahore and Lake City Lahore are consistently popular with UAE-based buyers for their security, finished infrastructure and resale liquidity — the qualities that matter most when you own from a distance. The right choice depends on your budget and whether you are buying to hold, rent or eventually live.
