Living in Uttara — honest review after 5 years

I’ve been living in Uttara Sector 7 for 5 years now and here’s my honest review:

Pros:

  • Relatively planned area with wide roads
  • Good schools (Scholastica, Maple Leaf)
  • Close to the airport
  • Metro rail access now!
  • More affordable than Gulshan/Banani

Cons:

  • Traffic congestion during peak hours
  • Limited dining/entertainment options compared to Gulshan
  • Waterlogging during heavy rain in some sectors
  • Distance from major business districts

Overall rating: 7/10. Would recommend for families.

I completely agree with this. Had a very similar experience when I was looking for property last year.

What about properties outside of Dhaka? I think smaller cities offer much better value for money.

The regulatory environment is changing rapidly. Some of these processes might be different now with the new digital systems.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown. One thing I’d add is to always check the building’s structural integrity before buying.

The prices you mentioned seem a bit high. I’ve seen slightly lower rates in the same area recently.

I disagree with some points here. From what I’ve seen in the Chittagong market, the situation is quite different.

This happened to my friend too. He ended up losing money because he didn’t do proper due diligence.
