Can you find out who owns it?
Ownership of land and buildings in Ukraine is recorded in the State Register of Real Property Rights to Immovable Property (Державний реєстр речових прав на нерухоме майно), kept by the Ministry of Justice. Anyone may order an information extract about any property or any person's holdings — the Diia portal answers 'Чи можу отримати витяг про нерухомість іншої людини? Так, можна' (Can I get an extract on another person's property? Yes) — but online ordering needs a qualified electronic signature and a fee of 0.0125 of the subsistence minimum (paper at a service centre: 0.025, stated as UAH 60). There is no free search, no bulk owner file, and no public register of sale prices; Ministry of Justice and register hosts did not answer from outside Ukraine.
Is ownership public?Public, but one paid search at a time
Cost of one title searchOnline via Diia: administrative fee of 0.0125 of the subsistence minimum for able-bodied persons per 25 pages (Diia: 'Вартість: 40 грн. Може змінюватись'; UAH 36.50 at the 2024 minimum); paper extract at a service centre (ЦНАП): 0.025 of the subsistence minimum, stated as UAH 60. No fee exemption.

The marquee buildings
The towers that set the tone of the core, and who holds them. A price is the price a document states, on the date it states — not an estimate of what the building is worth now.
| Building | Use | Owner | Owner type | Last price paid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Verkhovna Rada building (Будинок Верховної Ради) — seat of Parliament vul. Mykhaila Hrushevskoho 5, Kyiv |
Civic | State of Ukraine — State Management of Affairs (Державне управління справами) Wikipedia's infobox gives 'Owner: State Bureau of Affairs' (the State Management of Affairs, which runs the buildings of the highest state bodies); built 1936–39, three floors, glass dome, first session 25 July 1939. Tier B: no register entry, statute or balance-sheet list was opened that names the titleholder — the Rada's and the Ministry of Justice's hosts did not answer from outside Ukraine. |

| Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra (Києво-Печерська лавра) — National Preserve, UNESCO World Heritage site vul. Ivana Mazepy 21, Kyiv |
Institutional | State of Ukraine — National Kyiv-Pechersk Historical and Cultural Preserve (Ministry of Culture) On 30 March 2023 the Cabinet repealed order No. 519 of 11 July 2013, which had handed State buildings in the Lavra to the UOC monastery for free use; the Culture Minister: 'саме держава є власником цих об'єктів' (the State is the owner of these objects). The Preserve says the agreement with the monastery was terminated in April 2023, and on 8 February 2024 Kyiv City Council allotted the land plots to the Preserve in permanent use, after 30+ years without formalised land title. Church use (lease vs free use) is described differently across official notices. |
Government | —B |
| Kyiv International Airport (Zhuliany) — Igor Sikorsky Zhuliany, Kyiv (about 7 km south-west of the centre) 41,518 m² of non-residential premises on the City's list |
Civic | Territorial community of the City of Kyiv — Communal Enterprise International Airport 'Kyiv' (Zhuliany) The City of Kyiv's own list of communal real estate (20 Feb 2024 edition, published without addresses under martial law) carries 155 objects held on the balance of 'КОМУНАЛЬНЕ ПІДПРИЄМСТВО МІЖНАРОДНИЙ АЕРОПОРТ "КИЇВ" (ЖУЛЯНИ)', with 41,518 m² of non-residential premises; none is flagged destroyed or damaged. Wikipedia states it 'is owned by the municipality of Kyiv' (s14). Kyiv's other airport, Boryspil, lies outside the city's boundary (Boryspil, Kyiv Oblast) and is not in this record. Ukrainian civil airspace has been closed since 24 February 2022. |

| Hotel Ukraine (готель «Україна») central Kyiv almost 22,500 m² hotel complex · 14 floors |
Hotel | Not established a paid title search would answer it The State Property Fund sold the State's hotel — a 4-star hotel open since 1961, 14 floors, 363–365 rooms, six conference halls, parking and outbuildings — at Ukraine's first online large-privatisation auction, and later reported the full UAH 2.51 billion paid into the State budget. Conditions: keep hotel use, clear wage, budget and overdue creditor debts within six months, no lay-offs; untimed obligations run five years. The SPFU releases do not name the buyer; the State Register would, for a fee and a Ukrainian e-signature. |

The SPFU auction commission set a start price of UAH 1,651,633,236 (not a sale). Wikipedia (s17): control passed to the asset-management agency ARMA in Aug 2023. No completed sale was found as of Oct 2026. ownerType reflects the State's majority stake. |

| Gulliver business and shopping centre (tallest office tower) Sportyvna Square 1A, Kyiv 155,000 m² (Wikipedia) · 35 floors |
Mixed use | Not established a paid title search would answer it Wikipedia's infobox lists 'Owner: Oschadbank (80%), Ukreximbank (20%)' — both State banks — but its text says the two banks began debt-collection proceedings to take control only on 26 March 2025, after floors were seized and placed with ARMA and a 2018 SETAM sale attempt at UAH 18.177 billion failed. Whether title has passed to the banks was not established from any official source; 160.1 m architectural height, 35 floors plus 4 below ground, opened 2013. |

| Olimpiyskiy National Sports Complex (NSC Olimpiyskiy) — national stadium vul. Velyka Vasylkivska 55, Kyiv |
Civic | State of Ukraine — Ministry of Youth and Sports Wikipedia's infobox: 'Owner: Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine'; capacity 70,050 since the 2011 reconstruction for Euro 2012 (design GMP, Germany; opened 1923).

The Ministry of Health signed a reconstruction deal in June 2025 (Ukrainska Pravda, cited by Wikipedia). Tier B: State ownership under the Ministry of Health rests on its status as a national MoH hospital; no asset register was opened. |

Whether the station building is on Ukrzaliznytsia's balance or held directly by the State was not established: uz.gov.ua did not answer and no register was searchable. |

The core land
The most valuable ground in the city, and what the public record says about it.
No assessment roll or land-value register for Kyiv was reachable (the Ministry of Justice, State Geocadastre and Kyiv City hosts did not answer), so the core's value comes from State privatisation prices — the only Kyiv prices an official source states — and developers' asking prices.
Hotel Ukraine, central Kyiv — State privatisation priceUAH 2,511,777,888 (+ UAH 502.4 m VAT), ≈ UAH 111,600 per m² of the ~22,500 m² hotel (derived)
State Property Fund, auction of 18 Sept 2024 on Prozorro.Sales; start price UAH 1,047,637,152 (s5, s6).
Hotel Kozatskyi, central Kyiv — State privatisation priceUAH 400 million (+ UAH 80 m VAT) for over 9,500 m², 135 rooms

Who owns the town
At this scale the significant owner is rarely a trust or a fund: it is one or two local holding companies, a family in its second or third generation, and often the land around the town rather than the buildings in it.
Kyiv's largest holders are public. The City (its territorial community) lists 16,325 communal real-estate objects — schools, clinics, the metro, heat utility, airport and housing offices — with 11.4 million m² of non-residential premises; the State holds the seats of government, the Lavra preserve, national hospitals and stadium, and corporate stakes confiscated from sanctioned owners, which the State Property Fund sells. The railway is a 100% State company. No figure for State land, university or church holdings inside the city was found; the Lavra's land went to the State preserve in 2024.
| Name | Type | Holdings |
|---|---|---|
| Territorial community of the City of Kyiv (Kyiv City Council / Kyiv City State Administration) Totals computed from the City's open-data list of all communal real estate ('без адрес на період дії воєнного стану' — without addresses for the period of martial law). Largest balance-holders by non-residential area: Kyivteploenergo 734,759 m², district education departments (Darnytskyi 656,404 m²), Kyiv Metro 635,691 m², Kyivpastrans 465,760 m². The list's value column is not summed here because its units are inconsistent. 7,087 rows carry a State Register record number. |
Government | 16,325 objects; 11,428,857 m² non-residential premises; 8,213,237 m² living area in listed buildings (20 Feb 2024)A |
| Territorial community of the City of Kyiv — war-damaged communal property From the 'Знищено' (destroyed) and 'Пошкоджено' (damaged) columns of the same City list; 14 of the 21 destroyed objects are in Pecherskyi district. These flags cover City-owned property only, as at February 2024, not State or private buildings. |
Government | 21 objects flagged destroyed (1,434 m²); 63 flagged damaged (185,123 m²) as of 20 Feb 2024A |
| State of Ukraine — State Property Fund of Ukraine (ФДМУ) The SPFU privatises State property and confiscated sanctioned assets through Prozorro.Sales; 100% of proceeds from confiscated sanctioned assets go to the Fund for Liquidation of the Consequences of Armed Aggression (Cabinet notice, 30 July 2026, s33).

Who builds the houses
New-home building in this market: the volume, and the firms behind it. Ownership of a builder matters as much as its volume — a private-equity platform and a family firm behave differently.
New housing in Kyiv is built by private developers selling flats off-plan, plus the City's majority-owned Kyivmiskbud; no official league table of builders exists, so figures below are what the companies, or Wikipedia citing them, state — cumulative and mostly national, not Kyiv-only annual starts. Full-scale invasion halted sites in 2022; most resumed within months. Flats in completed buildings are owned by individuals and are not named.
| Name | Type | Completed |
|---|---|---|
| Kyivmiskbud (ПрАТ «ХК «Київміськбуд») English Wikipedia (s31): the City government 'controls 80% of the company's stock'. Ukrainian Wikipedia: entered in the Book of Records of Ukraine in 2014 for 'over 45 million sq m of housing'; in October 2024 Kyiv City Council approved a UAH 2.56 bn recapitalisation via a share issue, completed May 2026, after completing projects of the failed developer Ukrbud strained its finances. |

The 2025 figure (194,617 m² commissioned, 163,000 m² launched) is from Ukrainian Wikipedia (s29). |
Private company | 4.9 million m² of completed projects (cumulative); 194,617 m² commissioned in 2025B |
| Stolitsa Group Ukrainian Wikipedia: resumed work three months after the full-scale invasion, commissioned 16 buildings (309 thousand m²) in 2022 and reached 40% of pre-war volumes in 2023; built the Retroville mall (2020) and the Varshavskyi housing estate.

Commercial landlords
The commercial side, counted separately from housing: who holds the office, retail and industrial floor area.
Kyiv's institutional commercial landlords are few and mostly Ukrainian-managed funds and developers; several of the largest malls are tied up in sanctions confiscation (Ocean Plaza) or creditor proceedings (Gulliver). Holdings below are what owners state on their own pages, national unless marked Kyiv.
| Name | Type | Floor area |
|---|---|---|
| Dragon Capital (commercial real estate funds) Dragon Capital: 'Since 2015, Dragon Capital has built one of Ukraine's largest and most diversified commercial real estate portfolios … 25 properties across the office, retail, and logistics segments, with a total area exceeding 570,000 sq m.' It says part of its information is withheld under martial law; Kyiv share not stated. Its terms forbid republishing site information without consent — single stated fact quoted. |
Private equity | 25 properties, over 570,000 m² (Ukraine-wide: office, retail, logistics)A |
| Arricano Real Estate (Cyprus; majority shareholder Retail Real Estate S.A., Luxembourg) Arricano: 'owns and operates completed shopping centres and 49,9 per cent shareholding in Sky Mall'; AIM-listed 2013 – 17 Jan 2023. Its Kyiv malls: Prospekt (vul. Hnata Khotkevycha 1B, opened 2014, GLA 30,900, GBA 73,700 m²), RayON (vul. Lavrukhina 4, 2012, GLA 24,350 m²) and Sky Mall (GLA nearly 68,000, GBA 90,500 m²).

Looked for and not found
Claims this page would have made if a source could be opened. They are left out rather than guessed.
- Martial-law access limits: legal-news summaries say Cabinet Resolution No. 209 (6 March 2022, as amended) lets only the right-holder search the register by cadastral number or object address during martial law and for one year after; the official text on zakon.rada.gov.ua could not be opened, and Diia's own service page still lists searches by person or object, so the limit is not stated as fact here.
- Diia's register-extract service page displayed 'На жаль, послуга тимчасово недоступна' (the service is temporarily unavailable) when opened on 2026-10-21; whether that is a short outage or a suspension was not established.
- Owners of Hotel Ukraine and Hotel Kozatskyi after privatisation: the SPFU releases do not name the buyers; the Prozorro.Sales lot pages and the State Register would, but were not reached.
- Gulliver: whether Oschadbank (80%) and Ukreximbank (20%) now hold title, as Wikipedia's infobox says, or are still creditors collecting debt, as its text says.
- Ocean Plaza: the holder of the remaining 33.35% of LLC Investment Union 'Lybid', and whether the State stake was sold in the October 2026 auction round.
- Retroville and Lavina Mall owners; the Parus tower (Wikipedia names a developer company but rests it on '[citation needed]').
- Kyiv's normative monetary land valuation and the State Statistics Service's housing-completion figures for Kyiv (ukrstat.gov.ua did not answer).
- Holdings of Taras Shevchenko National University, the Orthodox Church of Ukraine and the UOC inside Kyiv — no sourced figures found.
