by furqanTo eliminate real estate scams and tackle the “land mafia,” the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) is launching a centralized online property portal. NAB has ordered provincial development authorities and the housing secretary to hand over all official records, approved maps, and layout plans for private housing projects.
- The Goal: Link official approval details and layout plans to an online portal to maximize transparency.
- The Benefit: Buyers, investors, and overseas Pakistanis can instantly check a project’s legal status, approved designs, and land details before purchasing plots.
- The Impact: A massive reduction in fake files, fraudulent schemes, and illegal advertisements that have historically cost citizens billions.
