2 projects with 428 apartments: Arena City Life D (BI Group), Maxima City (Phase 3) (KazSMU).
The project has received approval from the local executive body to attract investment from homebuyers and has been entered into the state register of shared construction. The developer may now officially sell apartments during the construction phase via shared participation agreements.
Arena City Life D — BVU; Maxima City (phase 3) — BVU. With bank participation, buyers' money passes through the bank; a KHC guarantee means the building will be completed if the developer runs into trouble; an akimat permit is issued once the building's frame is up. All three schemes are provided for by law.
The earliest estimated completion date is Maxima City (Phase 3) in July 2027. Arena City Life D is scheduled for July 2028, and Maxima City (Phase 3) for July 2027. These dates are estimated and may be extended by the developer.
