A new boutique building by the Zemeret Netzach Group in Tel Aviv is offering its penthouse for rent, a move that contrasts with the broader market trend of developers struggling to sell apartments. The group decided to retain ownership of all units in the project, designating them for rental purposes. The building is nearing completion and occupancy, with the company reporting that most apartments have already secured rental agreements before residents move in.
The penthouse itself features four large bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and two spacious balconies with open sea views. A private rooftop complex exclusively for the penthouse resident includes a swimming pool and seating areas.
Despite the pre-lease agreements for most units, this situation is described as an anomaly representing a very niche market segment and does not indicate a widespread recovery in demand. This comes against the backdrop of recent Central Bureau of Statistics data revealing a continued high inventory of unsold new apartments nationwide. As of the end of September 2026, approximately 85,080 new apartments remained unsold across Israel, with the Tel Aviv district accounting for the largest portion of this inventory, at around 26,500 units.
