How Prices Keep Rising Even During Conflict

The real estate market in Israel continues to demonstrate remarkable growth and price stability, even during periods of uncertainty and conflict. In central locations and sought-after cities such as Tel Aviv, Herzliya, and Jerusalem, property prices continue to rise, driven by strong demand for housing in major employment hubs and urban centers where many young people aspire to live. Additionally, low mortgage rates have enabled many to purchase properties and invest in real estate, even during turbulent times.Young investors are also finding significant opportunities in this market. Surveys indicate that today’s younger generation prefers smaller, practical apartments—typically 2–3 rooms in urban centers, close to public transportation and employment hubs. They favor new or renovated properties with modern design, and often choose compact units even if accessibility is not ideal. For those seeking larger properties for investment, a reconsideration may be warranted.The rental sector continues to expand, with rising demand for rental units contributing to higher prices in this market as well. The Israeli real estate market offers abundant opportunities for those who know where and how to look. Young investors entering the market must understand its challenges, but they can also capitalize on opportunities that have the potential to enhance their quality of life in the long term.
