About IMARAT Group
IMARAT Group of Companies is an Islamabad-based real estate developer and marketer, established as a developer in 2017 under Chairman Shafiq Akbar. The wider group also runs the property portal Graana.com and the real estate agency Agency21. Its development strategy concentrates on commercial and mixed-use projects along the twin cities’ busiest corridors, the Islamabad Expressway and GT Road, rather than large plot-based housing societies.
Most IMARAT projects sell small units (often 100 sq ft shops or studio apartments) on instalment plans, which lowers the entry ticket for investors who want rental income. The group’s flagship, IMARAT Downtown, brings together Mall of IMARAT, IMARAT Residences and Grand Bazar in one district about 10 minutes from Zero Point. The group also has a Courtyard by Marriott hotel project in G-11 Markaz, and Florence Galleria includes a Residence Inn by Marriott.
Which IMARAT Project Fits You?
Rental income from a shop, budget under PKR 1 crore: Florence Galleria, IMARAT Builders Mall, Amazon Outlet Mall, Mall of IMARAT or Grand Bazar.
An apartment to live in or rent out: IMARAT Residences (from PKR 1.43 Cr) or Golf Floras 2 for golf-view luxury (from PKR 3 Cr).
Biggest growth story: IMARAT Downtown, as the district fills up and its retail becomes operational.
Before You Invest in Any IMARAT Project
- Ask for the CDA (or DHA) approval letter and building-plan approval for the specific tower.
- Get the handover date in writing and check construction progress on a site visit.
- Understand rental guarantees or “ROI” offers fully, who pays, for how long, and what happens after.
- Check resale rules: commercial units in under-construction malls can be harder to sell than plots.
