Both plot sizes are available across most sectors in Faisal Town Phase 2, both carry the same 20% lump sum discount, and both come with development charges already included in the price. But they are not the same decision and the difference goes beyond just the price gap. A 5 Marla plot asks for PKR 13,35,000 at booking and PKR 60,000 per month.
A 10 Marla plot asks for PKR 22,85,000 upfront and roughly PKR 1,60,000 monthly. That’s not a minor gap for most buyers. This page breaks down the real difference between the two price, dimensions, construction cost, resale dynamics, and which sectors offer each so you can match the right size to your actual situation rather than guessing.

What You Get With a 5 Marla Plot
A 5 Marla plot in Faisal Town Phase 2 is the entry point the smallest residential size available across the project and the most widely traded category across general blocks, the Model Block, and the Overseas Enclave. It’s also the most accessible from a payment standpoint, with the lowest down payment and the most manageable monthly installment of any size. Understanding exactly what you get physically, financially, and in terms of sector availability helps you make a proper comparison rather than just looking at the headline price difference.
Dimensions and What You Can Build on 25×50
A 5 Marla plot measures 25 feet wide by 50 feet deep a total of 1,250 square feet of ground area. On this footprint a builder can typically construct:
- A ground-plus-one storey house with 2 to 3 bedrooms
- A separate lounge and dining area
- A kitchen and 2 bathrooms
- A small car porch at the front
The plot is compact but fully functional for a small to mid-sized family. Most builders working in this size range design vertically adding a first floor to maximise usable living space without sacrificing the ground floor layout.
Price, Down Payment and Monthly Installment
| Payment Detail | Amount (PKR) |
| Total Price (Installments) | 34,95,000 |
| Down Payment (20%) | 13,35,000 |
| Monthly Installment x36 | 60,000 |
| Lump Sum Price (20% off) | 27,90,000 |
| Registration Fee | 20,000 |
Development charges are included in the base price no separate charge applies at booking or possession. The 20% lump sum discount applies for buyers who pay the full amount at the time of booking in a single payment.
Which Sectors Have 5 Marla Available
5 Marla plots are available across most sectors in Faisal Town Phase 2 but not all. Here’s what’s confirmed:
| Availability | Sectors |
| Available on installments | Sectors C, D, E, F, K, L, M, N, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y and Overseas Enclave |
| Available on lump sum only | Model Block (Sector O) and I Block |
| Not available | Sector P |
Buyers specifically looking for 5 Marla in the Model Block should know that Sector O is lump sum only no installment option applies there. For installment buyers, the general blocks offer the widest availability.
What You Get With a 10 Marla Plot
A 10 Marla plot listed as 10.89 Marla in Faisal Town Phase 2’s official plan is the mid-to-large residential option, sitting above 8 Marla and below 14.22 Marla in the standard size range. It costs significantly more to book and more each month, but it also gives you a meaningfully larger building footprint. Understanding what that extra space translates into physically, and what it costs at the payment plan stage, is the most practical way to decide whether the premium is worth it for your specific situation.
Dimensions and What You Can Build on 35×70
A 10 Marla plot measures 35 feet wide by 70 feet deep a total of 2,450 square feet of ground area. That’s nearly double the footprint of a 5 Marla plot. On this size a builder can typically construct:
- A ground-plus-one storey house with 4 to 5 bedrooms
- Separate drawing and dining rooms
- A larger kitchen with storage space
- 3 to 4 bathrooms
- Space for a front lawn or garden
- A separate room for domestic staff or guests
- A double car porch
The extra width and depth make a tangible difference to how a house feels wider rooms, more natural light, and enough outdoor space for a functioning garden rather than just a narrow strip at the front.
Price, Down Payment and Monthly Installment
| Payment Detail | Amount (PKR) |
| Total Price (Installments) | 72,60,000 |
| Down Payment (20%) | 22,85,000 |
| Monthly Installment x36 | ~1,60,000 |
| Lump Sum Price (20% off) | 48,50,000 |
| Registration Fee | 20,000 |
The monthly installment for a 10 Marla plot is approximately PKR 1,60,000 nearly three times the 5 Marla monthly commitment. For salaried buyers, this is a significant difference in monthly cash flow burden rather than just a larger total number.
Which Sectors Have 10 Marla Available
10 Marla plots are available across most sectors in Faisal Town Phase 2 broader availability than some larger sizes.
| Availability | Sectors |
| Available on installments | Most general blocks including Sectors F, K, L, N, X, Y, S, T, J, I and Overseas Enclave |
| Available on lump sum only | Model Block (Sector O) and I Block |
| Not confirmed | Sector Y check with sales team for 10 Marla specifically |
10 Marla availability is wider than some larger sizes like 2 Kanal, but buyers should confirm with the sales team for their specific sector of interest since allocation shifts as plots are booked.
The Real Total Cost Plot Price Is Only Half the Story
Most comparison pages stop at the plot price. That’s the wrong number to base your decision on because the plot price is what you pay to own the land, not what you pay to have a home. Construction costs on top of the plot price are where the real gap between 5 Marla and 10 Marla becomes clear.
| Cost Component | 5 Marla | 10 Marla |
| Plot price (lump sum) | PKR 27,90,000 | PKR 48,50,000 |
| Estimated construction cost* | PKR 35–50 Lakh | PKR 65–90 Lakh |
| Estimated total (lump sum + build) | PKR 63–78 Lakh | PKR 1.13–1.38 Crore |
| Plot price (installments) | PKR 34,95,000 | PKR 72,60,000 |
| Estimated total (installments + build) | PKR 70–85 Lakh | PKR 1.37–1.62 Crore |
Construction estimates are based on standard mid-range finishing at PKR 3,000–4,000 per sq ft for this corridor. Actual costs vary significantly based on materials, finishes, and contractor rates.
The key point here is that the gap between the two sizes isn’t just PKR 20,60,000 at lump sum it’s closer to PKR 50–60 Lakh when you factor in the larger building footprint. A buyer who can comfortably afford the 5 Marla plot price may find the full 10 Marla ownership cost stretches their budget in a way the plot price alone didn’t signal.
Which Size Has the Bigger Buyer Pool When You Want to Sell?
Resale liquidity is one of the most practical factors in any property decision and it’s something buyers rarely think about at the time of booking. In Faisal Town Phase 2 and across most housing societies near Islamabad, the resale picture for these two sizes looks like this:
| Factor | 5 Marla | 10 Marla |
| Buyer pool size | Largest of any residential size | Moderate smaller than 5 Marla |
| Typical buyers at resale | First-time buyers, salaried professionals, overseas Pakistanis, small families | Established families, mid-range investors, end-users planning to build |
| Speed of resale | Faster more buyers competing for fewer available plots | Slower buyers are more selective and often need more time to arrange financing |
| Resale price premium | Lower per sq ft larger pool keeps prices competitive | Higher per sq ft premium positioning for the right buyer |
5 Marla is the most traded residential category in almost every active housing society near Rawalpindi and Islamabad. When prices rise and you want to exit, there are simply more buyers able and willing to purchase at that price point. 10 Marla commands a premium at resale, but the pool of buyers who can afford it is narrower which means a potentially longer wait for the right offer.
NOC Status What It Means for Both Sizes Right Now
As of 2026, Faisal Town Phase 2 has not received NOC approval from the Rawalpindi Development Authority and this applies equally to 5 Marla and 10 Marla plots across every sector. The NOC status doesn’t change based on which size you buy.
This matters because one competitor page covering this same comparison describes the developer as having a “100% NOC and delivery record” that’s misleading. Faisal Town Phase 1, Faisal Hills, and Faisal Margalla City are all approved and delivered. Faisal Town Phase 2 is a different project still awaiting approval. The developer’s track record on completed projects is real and verifiable, but it doesn’t mean Phase 2 itself has received approval.
| NOC Detail | Current Status |
| Regulatory authority | Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA) |
| Current status | Under Process not yet approved |
| Applies to 5 Marla plots | Yes all sectors |
| Applies to 10 Marla plots | Yes all sectors |
| Where to verify | ahs.punjab.gov.pk search “Faisal Town Phase 2” |
Buying at either size before NOC approval means accepting the legal uncertainty that comes with pre-NOC real estate development progress doesn’t change that position. Verify current status yourself at ahs.punjab.gov.pk before committing to either size.
Which Sector Should You Pick for Each Size?
Plot size and sector choice are two separate decisions and the right sector depends partly on which size you’re buying. Here’s a practical guide based on confirmed sector-specific data.
For 5 Marla buyers:
| Goal | Recommended Sector | Why |
| Build now — possession available | Model Block (Sector O) | Most developed sector in FT2 lump sum only |
| Installment plan, entrance area | Sector A | At the main gate on Chakri Road, roads finished |
| Installment plan, green surroundings | Sector J or Sector Y | Ecological corridor proximity |
| Installment plan, motorway access | Sector K | Western side, closest to M-2 Motorway |
| Overseas buyer community | Overseas Enclave | Dedicated zone, 36-month monthly installments |
For 10 Marla buyers:
| Goal | Recommended Sector | Why |
| Build now possession available | Model Block (Sector O) | Same-day possession on full payment lump sum only |
| Installment plan, CBD adjacency | Sector A or N Block | Near main entrance and commercial district |
| Installment plan, 2 Kanal option later | Sector I, K, or L | Western cluster also offer 2 Kanal if you upgrade |
| Ring Road proximity | Sector X | Ring Road Executive District sits alongside Ring Road |
| Overseas buyer community | Overseas Enclave | 10 Marla available with 36-month monthly installments |
The Honest Answer Which One Suits You?
The right size isn’t about which one is objectively better it’s about which one actually fits your financial position, your timeline, and what you plan to do with the plot. The table below gives a direct answer rather than “it depends.”
| Your Situation | Right Size | Why |
| Down payment budget under PKR 15 Lakh | 5 Marla | PKR 13,35,000 down only affordable entry at this budget |
| Monthly budget under PKR 80,000 | 5 Marla | PKR 60,000 monthly 10 Marla at PKR 1,60,000 is out of range |
| Planning to build a family home with 4+ bedrooms | 10 Marla | 35×70 footprint supports a full family house 5 Marla doesn’t |
| Buying to hold and sell want fastest exit | 5 Marla | Largest buyer pool, fastest resale in any market condition |
| Buying to hold long term maximum absolute gain | 10 Marla | Higher base price means more PKR returned at same appreciation % |
| Overseas Pakistani limited upfront capital | 5 Marla | Lower down payment, remote bookable, manageable monthly commitment |
| Want to build and rent out | 10 Marla | Larger house commands higher rental from families |
| First-time property buyer | 5 Marla | Lower risk, lower commitment, easier to manage over 36 months |
| Budget for both plot and construction combined | Check total cost | See the construction cost table above plot price alone is misleading |
One honest note across this whole table: neither size comes with a guaranteed return, and neither is a risk-free purchase while the project remains pre-NOC. The right size is the one you can comfortably commit to financially not the one that sounds bigger or better on paper.
Frequently Asked Questions
Conclusion:
The honest answer is straightforward: 5 Marla suits buyers who need a lower monthly commitment, want the fastest resale when ready to exit, or are entering real estate for the first time. 10 Marla suits buyers who can absorb the higher monthly payment, plan to build a proper family home, and are comfortable holding longer.
What both sizes share matters more than what separates them same developer, same pre-NOC status, same 20% lump sum discount, same April 2026 pricing structure. Neither size changes the legal position of the project, and neither comes with a guaranteed return.
Pick the size your budget can genuinely sustain over 36 months not the one that sounds better on paper.
