A Jewish resident of France recently purchased a 4.5-room apartment spanning 130 square meters on the beachfront in Netanya for 3.4 million shekels (approximately $930,000). The apartment, located on the seventh floor of an 11-story building constructed in the 1990s on Nitza Boulevard, faces west with sea views from all windows. It includes a safe room and parking but lacks a balcony. The building's ground floor features shops.

The purchase was made for the buyer's son, reportedly in response to a wave of antisemitism in France. According to the real estate agent involved, there are currently fewer buyers from France in Netanya, and prices for comparable apartments have decreased, having previously reached 3.9 million shekels.
