Rooms for long-term rent

Rooms for long-term rent in Pakistan

Updated 11 November 2026

A long-term room in Pakistan is rented by the month under a lease, not as a daily or weekly stay. The furnished one-bedroom apartments we found in Islamabad were listed at about Rs 120,000 a month (approximately, according to listings found online, November 2026). We found no clear monthly price for a single room, so the rent depends on the district, the furnishing and whether bills are included. For current offers, describe what you need in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

What the price depends on

• The district. Rents differ between Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad, and between areas within one city.
• Furnishing. Furnished homes carry a rent premium of about 25 to 35 percent over unfurnished ones, according to a 2026 rental market analysis for Pakistan.
• Who lives there. The number of flatmates and whether they share the bills.
• The lease term and the move-in date.

Rental rules and paperwork

Local rental-law guidance for tenants and landlords says that rent payments should be backed by receipts, and that future rent increases should be notified in writing. Ask for both from the first month and keep every receipt. Some furnished listings advertise only daily and weekly stays, so confirm in writing that a monthly lease is possible before you pay anything.

Season and move-in timing

The climate is desert: summer from May to September is very hot, and winter from November to March is mild. November is the start of the mild season, so viewings are comfortable now, and a move-in before summer gives you several mild months first. If you sign in the hot season, check the cooling, fans and power backup in the room before you agree to the lease.

How rooms are let here

Some furnished places are advertised with all utilities included and no deposit, so ask exactly which bills the monthly figure covers: electricity, gas, water and internet. For a furnished rental, ask for a written list of the furniture, so that the rent and the furnishing match what you agreed.

What to write in your request

Give the district and the city, the monthly rent you can pay in rupees, the type of place (a room in a shared flat, a portion, or a whole flat), who will live there, how many flatmates, the move-in date, the lease term and whether it must be furnished.
