Key takeaways

Demand concentration

Demand is widely distributed: the three best-selling residential complexes accounted for 40% of new sales, with 17 projects recording sales overall.

Market leader

BI Group accounts for 73% of new sales in Almaty's Alatau district: more than half of the demand is driven by a single developer.

Cancellations and corrections

For 3 properties, developers reduced the number of sold apartments by a total of 26. These are either contract terminations or registry corrections, which is why the net growth (+151) is lower than the gross growth (177).

Supply runway

Нераспроданных квартир по реестру — 10 557. При темпе этого месяца их хватит примерно на 70 месяцев.

New supply

One development consisting of 235 apartments has been added to the registry—more than the total sold in a month (177). At the time of registration, 15 apartments in the new developments are already listed as sold.

Share of national sales

Almaty's Alatau district accounts for 6.6% of the net increase in new-build sales in Kazakhstan.

Completion date

Two projects featuring 520 apartments are scheduled for completion by the end of the year, with 330 units still available. Buyers of these apartments will receive their keys sooner, though the developer reserves the right to extend the deadlines.

Protection schemes

In Almaty's Alatau district, 85% of projects are being built with second-tier bank participation (BVU), 10% with a KHC guarantee, and 5% under a local executive body permit (MIO).

Salemdom AI commentary

Monthly Highlights

September 2026 in Almaty's Alatau district showed a net sales increase of +151 apartments, with a gross figure of 177. Compared with August 2026, when the net increase was +169, dynamics fell by -11%. The district accounted for 6.6% of the net increase in new-build sales in Kazakhstan.

Who was selling

Demand was widely spread: 17 projects recorded sales, with the three best-selling residential complexes accounting for 40% of new sales. The market leader was developer BI Group, with 73% of the district's new sales. The most activity was at Arena City Balance - B (+28 apartments), Arena City Balance - A (+24) and Arena City Sport - G (+18).

Supply: new objects and remaining stock

Supply grew by 1 project with 235 apartments. 10,557 apartments remain on sale, enough for about 70 months at the current pace. In September, demand was highest in the "compact" class (+81), followed by "economy" (+70). Among available options, 2-bedroom apartments are the most numerous — 3,479.

Risks and what to check

When choosing, consider completion dates: by the end of the year, the planned date falls due for 2 projects with 520 apartments, of which 330 are still unsold. There were also cases where developers reduced the number of sold apartments for 3 projects by 26 in total. Protection schemes break down as follows: 85% of projects are built with BVU participation, 10% with a KHC guarantee, and 5% under an MIO permit.

Takeaway for buyers and investors

Buyers and investors should look at projects with high sell-through, such as Arena City Sport E (97%) or Arena City Balance - A (94%), where remaining stock is limited. For those who want a wide choice of layouts with bank participation, Arena City Life - C (183 apartments on sale) or JIBEK JOLY - A, C (494 apartments) are a good fit.

Methodology: monthly sales are the increase in the "sold" field in the register for projects that were in the register at the start of the month. Decreases (cancellations, corrections) are shown separately. If a developer temporarily reset the number sold to zero and restored it the following month, this counts neither as sales nor as cancellations. New projects are those that entered the register during the month; sales already recorded when they entered the register are not included in the month's sales. Sell-through and remaining stock are as of the end of the month.
