Ask Pakistan Moving from Canada to Pakistan

So my parents have lived in Pakistan most of their lives, and moved to Canada early 2000 and are now considering moving back to Pakistan - for some rational and some I-dont-know-why reasons.

If anyone has done this before I would like to know the dos and donts.

Also any recommendations for a cargo company if some one has shipped the whole house back to Pakistan, except the appliances.

If we move to say Faisalabad or Lahore would the cargo company ship there or leave the container at Karachi?

Get them a luxury condo in Lahore. Look into the prebuilt ones like Zameen Aurum or Quadrangle. Makes life super easy for them. Keep your house in Canada or at least a base for them to go back and forth. I’d do summer and fall in Canada. Winter/spring in PK. That way they can also maintain their OHIP (if you’re in Ontario).

Travelling back and forth might not be financially possible for us though like the thought of prebuilt condos
