Young Almaty residents will be able to buy housing on favorable terms

The uniqueness of the new housing program "Almaty Zhastary" is a low interest rate - a loan of up to 10 million tenge will be provided at a preferential rate of 5% per annum. The loan repayment period under the program will be calculated individually, for solvency, for a period of 3 to 25 years.
In the course of the event Almaty akim Bauyrzhan Baibek noted that on behalf of the Head of State this year was declared the Year of Youth in Almaty, within the framework of which the corresponding Roadmap is implemented in order to create conditions for self-realization and all-round development of youth, its adaptation to life in a metropolis.
"Today, the total number of young people under 35 years of age is about 800 thousand people in the city. One of the important and urgent issues for young people is the provision of their own housing. To implement the preferential housing program "Almaty Zhastary" 1 billion tenge has already been allocated from the local budget. At the same time, Almaty Zhastary not only encourages the Almaty youth, but also cares about the money of the citizens staying in the city. A preferential loan can be spent on the purchase of primary housing only in the city of Almaty. That is, with these funds the city will receive salaries for builders and workers, enterprises will receive orders, construction companies will pay taxes to the city budget," B. Baibek said.
It is worth noting that the program encourages working youth. For each year of work experience, 1 point is credited to the city organizations, and if a young person works in institutions related to the social sphere, for example, in a school or a kindergarten, the points for the experience are doubled. Favorable conditions are envisaged for socially vulnerable segments of the population - large families, disabled people of groups 1 and 2, single-parent families, orphans, etc.
The city authorities also intend to begin construction of hostels for students through JSC "NC" SEC "Almaty". At the moment, Almaty University Management University and Kazakh National Medical University named after SD Asfendiyarov expressed their desire to participate in this project. Within the framework of the Youth Support Roadmap, 12 hostels are planned to be built for students of the city until 2020. By the end of this year, the construction of four hostels will be completed.
"For the first time in the system of housing and construction savings, we sign an agreement with the akimat, which is aimed at supporting depositors. If previously everyone tried to support housing construction, then for the first time the approach has changed. Today together with Akimat of Almaty we make this tool especially for those young people who believe in the system of construction and housing savings. We have one of the largest portfolios in Almaty. 147 thousand people today have deposits in our branch, of which 50 thousand, we considered, these are young people from 20 to 30 years. And 13 thousand of them came this year," Lyazzat Ibragimova, chairman of the board of JSC Zhilstroisberbank, said.

In the pool of candidates for concessional lending will be selected according to the point system, which is specially developed for the Almaty Zhastary program, which takes into account a number of criteria aimed at supporting young Almaty residents. So, the points will be affected by the number of years in marriage, the presence of children, the place and length of work, profession, work experience as an individual entrepreneur, duration of residence in Almaty, etc. After the pool is formed, Zhilstroysberbank joins in. He checks solvency and issues a soft loan at 5% per annum. The maximum loan amount for which a young Almaty citizen can count is 10 million tenge. The loan is issued for the purchase of exclusively new housing, which the participant chooses independently.
