Kyrgyz citizens have taken to social media to express concern over a potential rise in real estate prices, as forecasts suggest that the cost of new housing could increase by at least $100 per square meter starting in January.
“This is largely a psychological factor,” economist Iskender Sharsheev told Vesti.kg. “It can lead to what appears to be a spontaneous agreement among construction companies. Consider what happened during the COVID-19 pandemic: when vast amounts of dollars were printed, suppliers cited blackouts and other increased costs. Buyers had no choice but to pay. Now, a similar pattern seems to be emerging. Influential parties are claiming that the market will become more expensive, creating an ‘information noise.’ They point to hardships and rising expenses, and in response, the market adjusts. Ultimately, people just want to earn more.”
Sharsheev also noted that the upcoming New Year holidays contribute to the issue. “Every year before the holidays, businesses raise their prices because they know consumers will stock up. This practice fuels rampant inflation. Once the holidays end, prices don’t drop; instead, businesses find reasons to keep them elevated. As a result, the market enters a cycle of perpetually high prices. The expansion of the money supply, especially when held in reserve, combined with basic human behavior, remains the primary driver of current price increases.”
In an attempt to address economic concerns, the Ministry of Economy recently proposed a tax on construction companies. However, members of parliament opposed the idea, arguing that it would push housing prices even higher. President Sadyr Japarov later expressed a negative view of these proposed taxes as well.
Additionally, the Kyrgyz government plans to demolish apartment buildings that have reached the end of their service life—approximately 50 to 70 years. This initiative was announced by the head of the State Construction Committee, Nurdan Oruntayev.

Либертарианство – это система убеждений, которая лучше всего защищает права простого человека, нежели коммунизм или социализм, которые прямо требует защиты интересов партийных боссов. Так когда-то некие партийные боссы двух социалистических республик подарили друг другу участки земли, как бы вроде курорта или дачи. Но во время развала Союза, эти две республики как-то не решились вернуть друг другу земли. И получились анклавы – Сох, Шахимардан, таджикский Ворух, и на территории РУз – Барак. А нам теперь расхлебывать наследие советской номенклатуры. Сегодня ни один наш правитель, ни один наш парламент не смеют поднимать вопрос окончательной делимитации и демаркации границ, а также вопрос о ликвидации анклавов. Армия РУз – имеет свыше одного миллиона регулярных войск и свыше 700 тысяч резервистов. Хотя боеспособность армии еще не апробирована всерьез, но на блицкриг и мини-геноцид соседей Кыргызстана и Узбекистана хватит. В Кыргызской республике, есть около 600 самых боеспособны...
