The committee also reported that Turkish citizens carried out no real estate transactions in Armenia during January–April 2026.
According to data published on the Cadastre Committee’s official website, among transactions registered during the first quarter of 2026, foreign citizens acted solely as buyers in 1,889 cases, solely as sellers in 2,399 cases, while in 125 transactions both parties were foreign citizens.
The data show that during the previous year foreign citizens purchased 2,014 real estate units and sold 2,524 units.
Apartments, land plots, and garages attracted the greatest interest among foreign buyers.

In terms of sales, Yerevan also ranked first with 762 units sold, followed by Kotayk with 364 and Armavir Province with 292.
