Rental prices have gone up in July all over Israel despite the financial crisis, according to data published last week by the WinWin ad agency.

 

The economic crisis' effect on rental prices appears not to be going by the book. Tel Aviv, in general, saw a rise in rental prices, as did Beersheba, Haifa and Jerusalem.
