A three-room apartment measuring 68 square meters on Zalman Shazar Street in the Ein Sarah neighborhood of southern Nahariya was sold for 1.05 million shekels. The apartment is located on the first floor of a seven-story building from the 1980s, which has an elevator but no balcony, parking, or storage. The building is expected to be part of a future urban renewal (pinui-binui) project, although the process has not yet started. The apartment was listed for about five months before being sold to a young investor recently discharged from the army, marking his first property purchase.

Anna Mirkin from Remax Halutzim Nahariya, who represented the sellers, described the neighborhood as highly sought after due to its proximity to the city entrance, shopping mall, promenade, and commercial center. She noted that the population is diverse with many families and that despite a general slowdown in real estate activity across Israel, Nahariya continues to see steady transactions. Mirkin added that many investors from central Israel are entering the market, attracted by current opportunities, and that interest rate cuts have had little impact on demand, which is mainly driven by buyers who need to purchase after selling their homes and by investors.

The article also lists recent second-hand apartment sales in other cities, including Jerusalem, Givatayim, Holon, Nesher, and Sderot, with prices ranging from around 1 million to nearly 5 million shekels depending on size, location, and amenities. These transactions illustrate ongoing activity in various Israeli real estate markets despite broader economic challenges.

The information is sourced from the Israeli Tax Authority's recent transaction records. The article emphasizes the evolving real estate landscape in Nahariya and other cities, highlighting investor interest and the potential impact of future urban renewal projects.
