In accordance with the amendments made to the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Housing Relations", after September 15, 2025, the chairman of the association of property owners is elected by the general meeting for a three-year term and is required to join the council of the house. To be approved as chairman and member of the house council, the candidate must be the owner of an apartment or non-residential premises. Family members (spouse, children, parents) who permanently live together with the owner of an apartment or non-residential premises can also be considered as candidates. The chairman of the association of property owners has the right to represent the interests of the association of owners without a power of attorney in all courts, government agencies and other organizations. If the chairman is unable to perform his duties for more than fifteen calendar days due to temporary disability or other reasons, and this is fixed by a protocol decision of the owners' meeting or the house council, the house council elects from among its members the acting chairman of the property owners' association. The powers of the interim chairman are established for a period until the election of a new chairman, but not more than six months. The Chairman also has the right to conclude an employment contract with the manager of an apartment building to manage a condominium facility. To do this, he needs a decision from the general meeting or a decision from the house council delegating authority to hire a manager. The manager of an apartment building must be a citizen of the Republic of Kazakhstan and have a document confirming his professional qualifications. After the conclusion of the employment contract and the completion of all procedures, the manager sends the relevant information to the housing inspectorate. This information is entered into the register of subjects of management of the condominium facility and managers of apartment buildings. Thus, the chairman remains in the management structure and performs the functions of the house council, and the main organizational and managerial work is carried out by the manager on the basis of an employment contract.
