A private home in Meitar sold for 3.35 million shekels, 100,000 shekels below its potential value, due to the sellers' request for a one-year delay in vacating. Realtor Shi Pinto noted a 15% decrease in transactions in Meitar and a 10% drop in Beersheba, attributing the slowdown to factors including the cancellation of tax benefits.
