According to some experts, the size of the middle class is 60 million while other researchers believe that this number is too good to be true as country’s GDP has decreased and inflation has increased in the last few years. Yet, there is quite heated debate going on in different forums about the rising middle class in Pakistan, which suggests that the purchasing power of a big chunk of people has notably increased. Since real estate investment is interest free and offers huge capital gain over time, sooner than later the middle class would definitely be drawn to this sector.The housing shortfall in Pakistan has reached 8 million, which simply means that 80 lac people in Pakistan have no home.
