Real Estate & Construction
Kazakhstan’s real estate and construction sector has experienced sustained growth driven by large-scale infrastructure investment, urban development in Almaty and Astana, and increasing foreign participation in commercial and residential projects. The legal framework governing land rights, construction licensing, and property transactions requires careful navigation by both domestic and international investors.
Bond Stone advises developers, investors, contractors, and lenders across the full real estate and construction lifecycle — from land acquisition and title due diligence through to construction contract negotiation, regulatory licensing, and dispute resolution. Our multi-jurisdictional presence covering Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan positions us to advise on cross-border real estate investment strategies across the region.
Construction in Kazakhstan operates under a tiered licensing regime administered by the Committee for Construction and Housing and Communal Services. Category I projects — the highest classification covering major infrastructure and industrial facilities — require a separate licensing process involving technical qualification requirements and state expert review.
Our Real Estate & Construction practice covers: land plot acquisition and title verification; construction licence applications across all categories; development agreement structuring; EPC and contractor agreements; lender security structuring over real property; commercial lease negotiation; cross-border real estate M&A; and construction dispute resolution before Kazakhstani courts and the AIFC Court.
