NEW YORK, Nov. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sotheby's International Realty today announced the opening of Kazakhstan Sotheby's International Realty, signifying the brand's continued expansion to nearly 220 offices in the EMEIA region.

"Kazakhstan is known for its hospitality, authentic cuisine, and being rich in nature," said Philip White, president and CEO of Sotheby's International Realty. "The country debuted on the Global Fintech Index in 2021 and investors are demonstrating interest in the country's real estate market. There is also a growing trend to increase new development projects. Our continued international expansion further enables our brand to grow strategically and provide added referral opportunities for our clients. I look forward to working with Diana and the entire Kazakhstan Sotheby's International Realty team."
"Our mission is to demonstrate the benefits of real estate investments to clients and our region," said Alieva. "Kazakhstan is a country with established luxury.
