The loan instalment is the largest monthly cost of owning a flat, but it is not the only one. Service charges, maintenance, utilities and a sinking fund add up every month — and households that budget only for the instalment are budgeting for a surprise.
প্রবাসী আয়ের শহর সিলেটে পারিবারিক বাড়ি ও ফ্ল্যাটের চাহিদা দীর্ঘদিনের। তবে চাহিদা থাকলেই সব এলাকা ও সব প্রকল্প সমান নিরাপদ নয় — জমি, নির্মাণ মান ও সেবা যাচাই করেই সিদ্ধান্ত নিতে হবে।
A plot in Purbachal promises control and a home built to your own plan. A flat in Dhaka promises a finished home in an established neighbourhood. The two are not versions of the same purchase — they are different risks, different timelines and different kinds of work.
Pricing, absorption and transaction volume

Where capital is moving, and why
Dubai turned desert plots into one of the world's most traded property markets through freehold zones, a central land registry and escrow-protected off-plan sales. Dhaka can borrow the plumbing of that system without pretending the two markets are the same.

The rules that change the maths
A missed handover date is stressful, expensive and, too often, met with silence. The buyer's position depends on the paper trail, the agreement's delay clause and the steps taken in the first weeks — not on anger alone.
মালিক মারা গেলে জমি আপনা-আপনি একজনের হয় না — সব ওয়ারিশের হয়। বণ্টন দলিল, সবার সম্মতি আর রেকর্ড না মিললে পরে সেই জমি নিয়েই মামলা, দখল বিরোধ আর রেজিস্ট্রেশন জটিলতা তৈরি হতে পারে।
The brochure sells the flat. The agreement decides the handover date, the payment risk, the penalty for delay and who pays when plans change. Read it as if something will go wrong — because that is when it matters.
Registering a deed is only half the job. Mutation — namjari — is the separate process that enters your name in the land record, and without it you cannot pay land tax in your name or easily sell the property on. Here is how it works, what it costs, and where it goes wrong.
Trophy assets, branded residences and private capital
Evening falls over a finished apartment block and the building settles into ordinary life — lights in kitchens, children on the stairs, a guard at the gate who knows the residents by sight. For many Dhaka buyers, that ordinariness is the point, and it is what a long-established developer is still selling.
