It depends where you are. For example Delhi, Chennai, Bangalore etc have room to expand in many directions so in the suburbia you will find such housing colonies both old and new. Even in my Tier II hometown (Coimbatore), they are literally called "Xyz" colony, some other cities use the word "layout" etc. Like my relatives in Bangalore live in such area.

The newer ones do the same house model repeated just like North American suburbia and what you have posted for Karachi. Normally the word villa or such is used for these projects. Older ones with legacy/heritage, normally you would buy the plot and develop whichever house you wanted yourself. These options are still available, but now there is the standard option you can just buy into (horizontal condo, repeated villa project etc).

Bombay is interesting case given its downtown area is very hemmed in, so the expansion takes place more in its satellite areas (Navi Mumbai, Thane etc). In the regular city apartments are thus preferred to large degree, same can be said of the core areas of all the cities in India. As you move to satellite areas and further away where land gets cheaper, but logistics to core are still decent....thats where you find a better mix between apartments, villas and so on.

I think maybe @Bombaywalla will have more specifics on it.

Price range would be anywhere from $ 80000 - $ 200000 .I am sure foreigners can because such areas are usually the places where you can spot Foreigners . Bahria towns are usually multi-billion projects . Owned by Malik Riaz (one of the richest men in Pakistan ) . Multiplexes , Bowling , Hospitals , Universities , Malls almost everything is available inside so you don't need to go outside The Bahria towns in Lahore and Islamabad are as much impressive .

Of course just make sure to not have Indian visa on passport You will be surprised to find out that many Afghans do buy houses in such places.

This guy Malik Riaz not only has a vision but he has always delivered what he promised and in quick time. I appreciate him for his large construction projects that directly employs thousands of unskilled labour and many thousands more in support industries.

While it is true that there is absolutely no space available for boring suburban sprawls inside the island city and its densely built-up suburbs, there is demand for such projects outside the city, for example, Aamby Valley, Lavasa etc.
