Anti-Encroachment Drive-By Sindh Building Control Authority
Karachi city suffers from major congestion, road blockage, and traffic issues due to the lack of proper construction. However, the buying of low-cost properties in slum areas follows from the years that, as a result, increases the construction of illegal properties. Additionally, the SBCA has taken action against unauthorized properties. On the other hand, the results have impacted business and economic activities, likewise creating a number of problems for the residents.
The encroachment drive has been raised to completely demolish the illegal structure from the city. However, the encroachment operations are performing the demolishing activities in the slum areas, on the main road, which is disturbing the vehicles, pushcarts on the footpaths, and the small roadside tea shops. As a result, people have been seen migrating to their home cities, or moreover to the legal part of the city. Thus, the encroachment drive will move forward to bring Karachi into a fine structure with fewer unauthorized properties.
How to Invest in a Property Legally?
Before buying the property, it is crucial to get familiarized with the area and its history. If it finds you verified in all terms, then comes the final step of purchasing. On the other hand, while dealing with the seller, verify the property is registered under the property owner’s name.
