Salemdom AI commentary

Monthly Highlights

In September 2026, developers in Zhetysu district, Almaty marked 28 apartments as sold, but at 1 project the number sold fell by 32. As a result, the net increase was −4, below August 2026, when the net increase was +17. The register lists 11 projects in total, with 487 apartments sold (19%) and 2,080 still on sale.

Who was selling

Demand is concentrated in three residential complexes: Saulet 3, Saulet - 2 and ANSAR, which accounted for 96% of all new sales. The leader by share of the month’s new sales was Svoi Dom, at 21%. The highest activity was recorded at Saulet 3 by BI Group (+11 apartments) and Saulet - 2 by BI Group (+10 apartments).

Supply: new objects and remaining stock

Supply consists of 11 economy-class projects. 1 new project from KazSMU with 50 apartments entered the register, with planned completion in July 2027. 2-bedroom apartments make up the largest share of the remaining stock (963), while 3-bedroom units are selling fastest (21%). Saulet - 2 has reached 86% sell-through, with 33 apartments left.

Risks and what to check

Buyers should check completion dates: for example, Saulet 3 is scheduled for May 2028 and ANSAR for December 2027. Take into account contract cancellations or register corrections, which in September reduced the number of apartments sold by 32. Protection schemes are distributed as follows: BVU 45%, KHC 45%, MIO 9%.

Takeaway for buyers and investors

Investors and buyers should look at projects with high sell-through, such as Saulet - 2, where the choice is limited. For those who value a wide choice of layouts under the BVU scheme, Saulet 3 (400 apartments on sale) and ANSAR (252 apartments) are relevant. The district’s overall sell-through is 19%, 13 pp below the national average (32%).

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.
