Conclusion
The MidCity Housing Lahore is an upcoming real estate project. The company behind the project is young but has big ambitious plans.
Secondly, they have very good creative aesthetics to have designed the master plan of this project.
The location of the project is also good, since it is nearer to Bahria Town Lahore and can be easily accessible through the Ring Road Lahore.
The MidCity Housing Lahore project’s marketing plan is very well designed, The TVC (TV Commercial) is one of the best. They have signed the MoU with Bilal Ashraf, one of the leading Pakistan actors to become brand ambassador for the MidCity Housing project.
Although marketing in real estate is just one of the small pieces in the whole game. In real estate what matters most is the project’s completion as per the plan, and its delivery on time. These are the main ingredients for the success of any real estate project.
It you sell high end product and make tall claims, and are unable to deliver on the promises, this can be a most disastrous and failure recipe for the whole project.
In real estate sector, due diligence plays a very important role.
In this MidCity Housing Lahore project, the management is at least very transparent in providing the complete milestones of what has been achieved and approved as of now. It is also one of the rarest things, which I have not come across so far on any other website.
In addition, it is also to be noted, that they are not very transparent about the complete project size in terms of their land acquisition and development. Anyways, in may be due to overlooking of the details to have missed out, or else they have not at least mentioned it on their website.
Overall, the fundamentals look good for MidCity Housing Lahore. Especially the legal side of things, and marketing side of the things.
They are not very salesy and hypey, and they are sticking to good quality standards in their advertising and marketing collaterals.
The target audience for MidCity Housing Lahore project definitely will be medium to affluent class.
Their launch prices are somewhat higher than the existing benchmark standards. The developed plot of 5 Marla is PKR 75 lacs which is near the current market cap in DHA Lahore and Gulberg Lahore.
There may seem to be pricing challenge in the MidCity Housing Lahore project to slow down their sales. But if marketing and the actual development is done well, it may take off in the future.
With all the goods and not-so-bads, the MidCity housing project appears appealing especially for those who can afford it.
