Here’s our regular roundup of homes bought and sold over the last month to keep you in touch with the realities of Israel’s housing market. The information in this article was gathered through the Israel Tax Authority’s real estate research database, which shows the final prices paid for properties.

The latest available figures show that housing prices have risen by 15.9% over the last year (April/May 2022 compared to April/May 2021), although the number of homes changing hands has slowed down. The highest price rises have been seen across the towns and cities in the central region of the country.
