The housing market posted a surprise uptick in prices for October–November 2025, ending an eight-month stretch of consecutive declines, according to the latest housing price index published by the Central Bureau of Statistics on Sunday.
The index showed a 0.7% rise in prices compared to September–October, defying government expectations and contradicting data released by the CBS and Finance Ministry just two weeks earlier, which pointed to a continued slowdown in real estate transactions. The cumulative price drop during the preceding eight months stood at 2.8%.
Despite the broader slowdown, recent deals tracked through nationwide real estate networks reveal continued activity in the second-hand housing market.
