Why File Rates Fluctuate
- Balloting Announcements: With the Phase 10 ballot just weeks away, prices are expected to remain volatile.
- Development Status: Ongoing infrastructure work in Phase 9 Prism continues to push file prices toward plot prices.
- Economic Indicators: Inflation and currency shifts in early 2026 are driving more local and overseas capital into DHA’s secure land assets.
Investment Strategy for 2026
- For Short-Term Gains: Look toward Phase 10 Affidavit files. Buying before the January 20 deadline offers a chance for a “ballot jump” in price.
- For Long-Term Stability: Phase 13 (Ex-DHA City) remains the most affordable entry point for investors looking at a 5-10 year horizon.
