Furnished Apartments in Pakistan

The furnished apartment market in Islamabad grew out of E-11 and G-11 and now runs through F-11, Bahria Town Phase 4 and 7, DHA Phase 2 and parts of PWD. A one-bed with a working kitchen, washing machine, air conditioning and Wi-Fi starts around Rs 12,000 a night; two-beds run Rs 18,000 to Rs 30,000 depending on sector and building age. Monthly deals start near Rs 90,000 for a one-bed.

These suit families, medical visitors and anyone staying more than three nights, because the kitchen removes the daily restaurant bill and the extra room removes the second hotel booking. Check the lift and its backup power if the flat is above the third floor, whether electricity is billed separately, and whether the building has a security guard. Summer electricity in a two-bed with heavy air conditioning can add Rs 25,000 to Rs 40,000 a month.

Photographs age badly in this segment, so ask for a recent walkthrough video and the exact building name before paying an advance. Confirm what the linen and cleaning arrangement is; nightly bookings usually include one changeover, monthly ones often include nothing. Standard advance is thirty to fifty percent, with a refundable security deposit of Rs 15,000 to Rs 50,000 on longer stays.
