Avoid comparing unlike properties or treating asking prices as certified market values.
Separate three different prices
A listing price is what a seller asks. A negotiated price is transaction-specific. Official guidance or collector rates have separate administrative purposes; they are not guaranteed selling prices.
Compare like-for-like properties
Check carpet versus built-up area, floor level, parking, lift provision, road access, amenities, possession and construction age.
Locality names are broad
An advert saying Kharar or Aerocity may cover very different streets and planning contexts. Pin down the precise address and verify access in person.
Do the verification
Use the Punjab RERA records for applicable projects and local land or planning authority records for property-specific checks.
