Here’s a detailed overview of Sector I-12, Islamabad — what it is, what’s happening, its pros & cons, and what to watch out for. If you want, I can also pull up maps or current property prices.

What is Sector I-12
Location & Size: I-12 is a sector in Islamabad under the Capital Development Authority (CDA). It covers around 745.87 acres and includes about 6,040 residential plots of various sizes (25×50 ft, 30×60 ft, 35×65 ft, etc.).

Zoning & Status: It is a planned sector that has been under development but has faced long delays. Many plots have been allotted, but possession and service delivery are issues still being resolved.

Development & Challenges
Delays in Development: Development has been slow. Major infrastructure (roads, sewerage, drainage, etc.) has lagged. Contractors have been engaged, contracts awarded, but work has stretched over many years.

Anti-Encroachment Operations: There have been repeated operations by CDA to recover illegally occupied land in I-12. For example, around 700 kanal of land were recovered in one such op. However, after clearing, illegal settlers often return in some sub-sectors.

PC-1 Approval: CDA approved a PC-1 plan (budget and project plan) worth PKR 8,214 million for infrastructure development in I-12.

Amenities & Accessibility
Transportation / Roads: It sits adjacent to the IJP Road, which connects Islamabad Expressway (to the west) to the N-5 highway (east). This gives some decent connectivity.

Living Options: Plots are available in smaller sizes (5–8 marla) which are more affordable. Some flats too, though the primary offering is plots.

Utilities & Civic Services: Still catching up. Many basic services (roads, drainage, sewerage) are not fully operational everywhere. Gadgets like gas, proper sewerage, etc., may not be fully reliable until the development is fully completed.

Pros
Potential for Investment: Because the sector is under-development, there is potential for good ROI if you buy now and the area gets properly developed.

More Affordable Compared to Fully Developed Sectors: Plot rates are generally lower than in the more mature sectors (especially in Islamabad’s core sectors). For buyers who don’t need all amenities immediately, this can be a plus.

Space & Future Growth: With a large number of plots and ample area, there’s room for growth and planning. Potential to improve amenities, community structure, etc.

Cons / Risks
Delayed Possession & Development: Many plot owners complain they’ve been waiting for decades for possession and for the infrastructure to be ready. There’s uncertainty about when everything will be fully functional.

Illegal Settlements / Encroachments: These have been ongoing issues. Even after removal, structures keep reappearing, which complicates development and lowers property desirability in certain parts.

Incomplete Basic Services: Until the infrastructure is built and utilities fully provided, living conditions may be challenging. Roads might not be paved everywhere, drainage could be inconsistent, etc.

Current Status & What to Watch For
Deadlines & Progress Updates: Keep an eye on CDA announcements. For example, the CDA had set deadlines (e.g. October 2024) for handing over plots etc. It’s good to check whether these have been met in practice.

PC-1 Implementation: How well is the PC-1 plan being executed? If you visit, you can check road work, sewerage, etc., whether they are being done as per plan.

Encroachment Control: Since illegal occupation returns in cleared areas, what preventive measures are (or will be) put in place matters a lot.

Access to Utilities: For a plot buyer, check whether gas, electricity, water, sewerage connections are available or likely soon.

If you want, I can get you a map with sub-sector breakdown (I-12/1, I-12/2, etc.), and current plot prices + recent sold rates, so you can compare and see which part of I-12 might be best value. Do you want me to pull that together?
