|---|---|---|
| Standard | PKR 2,700 – 3,300 | Local A-grade tiles, standard woodwork, branded paint, standard sanitary & electrical fittings |

Turnkey total = grey structure + finishing. Most 5 marla clients in Bahria Town choose a standard-premium mix: premium in the lounge and kitchen, standard in bedrooms.
What moves the total most: basement (adds 25–35%), design complexity (double-height lobby, elevation features), and finishing brands. What doesn't change: Bahria compliance costs — map approval, inspections, and boundary-wall specs apply to every house, and our quotes include them. Full compliance detail is in our Bahria map approval guide.
Milestone Payment Plan
You never pay large advances. A typical 5 marla grey structure agreement is split into 5–6 milestones — booking, foundation complete, ground-floor slab, first-floor slab, brickwork/plaster complete, and handover — each released only after you (or your representative) verify the stage on site or via video walkthrough.
