Methodology. The article uses such research methods as comparison, generalization, analysis and synthesis, modeling (making a trend forecast).

Originality / value of the research. The results of the assessment of the development of the housing market in the Republic of Kazakhstan over the past 18 years allowed us to identify current limitations and problems in its development, including on the basis of the forecast of the development of the housing market until 2025 in order to develop appropriate recommendations for their solution.

Findings. According to the results of the study, the process of housing construction development from 2003 to 2020 in Kazakhstan was carried out mainly thanks to state financial support. The results of the trend analysis for the period from 2020 to 2025 showed that the peak of commissioning of residential buildings put into operation will be observed in 2023, and housing prices will increase. In this regard, the authors have proposed recommendations for solving such problems as reducing the level of corruption in the system of distribution of tender purchases, in the process of adoption and commissioning of the housing stock, as well as in the distribution of housing, the closedness of general plans of settlements to the population, insufficient quality of housing and others.
