Latest Updates

Regulatory Clearance and Infrastructure Progress for OPF Housing Scheme Lahore

The OPF Housing Scheme on Raiwind Road, Lahore has secured two major No-Objection Certificates (NOCs), clearing a critical regulatory hurdle. Concurrently, road infrastructure is advancing: in May 2026, senior OPF official Mohammed Afzaal Bhatti inspected the under-construction approach road linking the scheme to the main highway — confirming active on-ground progress. This paves the way for residential block development and the marketing of plots ranging from 5 marla to 1 kanal at premium prices.

Residential plots in OPF Housing Scheme Lahore are actively being marketed across multiple blocks, with 5 marla, 10 marla, and 1 kanal plots listed for sale at premium rates.
