I don’t say this often, but this is one of those opportunities that actually stands out.

A strong project, in a high demand North Tel Aviv neighbourhood, quiet but very accessible, by a top developer that builds high-quality for the long term.

But the real story here isn’t only the project - it’s also the timing.
Right now, pricing is still at early-stage levels, with an exclusive discount and pre-market access.

In this market, that window doesn’t stay open for long.
Once it goes to market, prices adjust - every time.

If you’ve been waiting for something that actually makes sense, this is worth a closer look.

Message me and I’ll walk you through it.

Tel Aviv Building Permits up in 2025
The number of building in permits in Tel Aviv grew again in 2025.
Despite a slow down in deals completed in 2025, prices remain stable.
Developers are optimistic.

Most buyers look at prices in shekels,
but if your money is in USD, that’s not your reality.

Over the past year, the shekel strengthened sharply.

The same apartment, at the same ₪ price,
is now ~25% more expensive in USD.

This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy.
It means that for foreign buyers,
timing, negotiation, and structure matter more than ever.

Average prices across five major cities remain stable, despite an 18% drop in deal volume in 2025.
Jerusalem: Average prices are up 23% between Q1 2024 and Q4 2025.
Tel Aviv: No overall price change between Q1 2024 and Q4 2025.

Almost 25% of available new units are in these two cities, while a whopping 54% of all available new units are in the center of the country.

At first glance, you might think the market is slowing down.

But if we look closer...

Yes, transactions are down.
But prices aren’t really falling.
Buyers are waiting.

It’s a good time to start your search.

A client asked for a comparative analysis of recent deals in the Old North – North neighbourhood, so I mapped out the past 12 months of activity:
• 46 new-development deals across 15 different developers
• 123 second-hand deals in the same area

When you look at the charts, the difference in both pricing and volume becomes much clearer - especially when everything is normalized to the same neighbourhood and timeframe.

And keep in mind: the most recent months will always look slower because nadlan.gov data can take 2–4 months to update.

This kind of neighbourhood-level analysis is exactly what helps buyers move forward with confidence. When you strip away the noise and zoom in on actual deals, the market becomes far easier to understand.

If you or someone you know is looking to buy in Israel - new or second-hand - please be in touch. I’d be happy to help more buyers understand the data and move forward with confidence.

I’ve just done a deep dive into Tel Aviv’s new developments.

Sales have slowed sharply. Developers are still holding firm on prices, but many are now offering “creative” (read: expensive) financing options.

Here’s the reality check:
📉 Average new sales in Tel Aviv over the last five months (until August) = 404 apartments per month
🏗️ Current number of new units for sale in Tel Aviv ~ 11,000

Not all developers are equal, of course - top-tier ones in the luxury segment can hold on longer - but across the board, buyers are clearly shifting toward second-hand homes and completed projects.

If you’re thinking about buying in Israel, clarity matters more than ever.

That’s what RESI is here for.

Let’s talk - whether you’re comparing new vs. second-hand, Tel Aviv vs. periphery, or just trying to make sense of the market, we can help.

6 of consecutive months of price declines, all time high supply.
𝐘𝐞𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐚 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐚𝐠𝐨.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝?
Prices jumped 2.9% Oct 2024-Feb 2025.
2.1% of that increase dissappeared over the last 6 months.
Net result? We're basically flat.

𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬:
National data is useless for YOUR decision.
Same city. Same street. Different projects or apartments = totally different pricing reality.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬:
Which developers will actually negotiate?
Where are the real price drops hiding?
Is second-hand the smarter play right now?
How do buyer groups get better deals?

Stay tuned.
