It was established in the year 1975 and the opening of this well-developed housing authority was held on 19 March 1975. Under the supervision of Pakistan Army this housing project was completed. It was initially developed for officers and military personnel, but with the passage of time the private sector showed its interest in DHA due to its beauty and good development. As time passed this housing project became the source of Pakistan Army because too many businessmen purchased land in this housing project. The reason behind the excessive land purchase by the private sector was the country's security conditions. Since from the beginning the selling point of the Defense Housing Scheme was that it was overseen by the military itself and it created a lot of satisfaction for private businessmen to settle here. As time passed, the price of land began to increase more and more due to the increase in demand from the private sector. So the army needs to develop this housing project in other big cities too. Nowadays the army is acquiring more and more land to expand DHA in all major cities of Pakistan, an example of this is that there are 11 phases of DHA in Lahore by the end of 2013.
