DOGMA construction holding will build 325 thousand square meters of new housing in Omsk

The third major nonresident player enters the construction market of the Omsk region. Governor Alexander Burkov and Mayor Sergey Shelest have signed an agreement with the developer on the implementation of a large-scale investment project in the field of housing construction in the region.

Krasnodar-based DOGMA holding specializes not only in the construction of multi-storey residential buildings, but also in complex development of the territory, including social facilities, parks and squares. In 10 years, the construction company has built more than 550 thousand square meters of residential real estate alone. In Omsk, the holding plans to implement an investment project for the construction of a new residential complex in the Leninsky district with 16 and 25-storey buildings with a total area of more than 325,000 square meters, with parking and recreation areas, sports and playgrounds. The investment capacity of the project is 21 billion rubles.

The possibility of building new housing in the region, including the city's needs for social infrastructure development, was considered during a working meeting between Omsk Region Governor Alexander Burkov and DOGMA management in November last year. Today, the parties discussed the details of the upcoming cooperation and the agreements reached. The meeting resulted in the signing of a three-party agreement between the Government of the Omsk Region, the Omsk administration and Dogma-Omsk Specialized Developer LLC on the implementation of a large-scale investment project in the field of housing construction in the city.

In 2021, the government of the Omsk region has already concluded similar agreements with nonresident companies Etalon and Lingonberry, which will build 1.3 million square meters of housing on the Left Bank. DOGMA expects to introduce almost 7,9 thousand new apartments in the city. The large-scale project provides for the placement of a 1,200-bed school and three kindergartens with a total of 950 places on the territory of the future residential complex.

The housing construction project in the Leninsky Administrative District is included in the register of large-scale investment projects. This gives the investor the right to apply for land lease without bidding. In turn, developers, under the terms of the agreements, must transfer 5% of the built housing to the ownership of the region and the city in order to provide apartments for orphaned children, defrauded shareholders, and the resettlement of residents of Omsk from dilapidated and emergency funds.

"Given the changed economic relations, logistics chains and directions, of course, certain difficulties arise due to sanctions pressure, the search for new suppliers both in the construction industry and in other areas. But I think the main weapon of the economic struggle against those who have imposed sanctions on us are construction cranes on our territory. These are attracted investments, new jobs, new wages and new taxes to the budget of the city and the region," said Governor Alexander Burkov. – When I arrived in the Omsk region in 2017, they were reluctant to build here, there was low demand. Today, we see that demand is growing, as is the desire to buy new housing. Our task is to create all conditions to promote the interests of our residents. Firstly, when there are a lot of construction companies, then there are a lot of offers on the housing market and, consequently, the cost per square meter is lower. And when there are many large construction companies, the quality of housing under construction will also be different. Competition today forces developers to offer more comfortable housing with well-equipped house territories, with underground parking. The main task of the Omsk Region Government and the Mayor's Office is to develop this competition so that Omsk residents benefit from the cost per square meter and the quality of housing on the housing market. Yes, there will be new suppliers of construction materials, machinery and equipment. We will start producing something in Omsk, and we will purchase something in other regions of the country. But the construction doesn't stop. As you can see, the investor is ready to invest 20 billion rubles and implement major projects. This indicates that investors have an interest in Omsk and the Omsk region. And we must maintain this trend," said Governor Alexander Burkov.

To implement the investment project, the holding has established a specialized developer Dogma-Omsk in the region. The new legal entity will pay taxes and provide new jobs here.

"Firstly, the investor with whom the agreement was signed today will build more than 330 thousand square meters of housing in Omsk. Secondly, all local construction materials that are produced in our city will be used. In addition, the company will involve Omsk builders in the construction of these facilities, creating more than 1,000 jobs," said Omsk Mayor Sergey Shelest.

DOGMA Construction Holding specializes in business and comfort class residential real estate. The company annually increases the volume of construction, takes into account the need for the construction of social infrastructure facilities when designing new housing complexes. The new residential complex consists of 17 multi-apartment buildings of variable storeys, with a developed social environment. The draft territory layout is currently undergoing the approval and approval procedure, then the development of the residential complex project will begin with the start of its construction in 2022.

"Despite the difficulties we are experiencing in the economy today, we are firmly moving forward. Today, a serious step has been taken – an investment agreement has been signed, under which we will build a residential complex on Svetlovskaya Street. I would like to personally thank the Governor of the Omsk Region, Alexander Burkov, and the city administration for their trust in our company. We will put all the potential of our team into the implementation of this project. Omsk is a priority area for us. We have studied the situation here in depth and consider this region to be promising for us. We know that it will be interesting for us to compete in a competitive environment with other strong companies. And together, we, the developers, will create a high-quality environment in the city, and the citizens will only benefit from this," said Georgy Labintsev, Vice President of DOGMA Holding.

According to the Unified Resource of Developers for 2021, DOGMA took the 2nd place in the TOP construction companies of the Krasnodar Territory and the 3rd in the rating according to DOM.RF Bank. Despite the external circumstances, DOGMA continues to strengthen its position in the construction market and becomes the leader in terms of housing construction in the Krasnodar Territory, and also plans to contribute to the development of housing stock in the city of Omsk.
