Bank of Israel: Emigration is a Factor in Weak Housing Sales

According to a report by the Bank of Israel for 2025, the increasing emigration of young Israelis is contributing to a decline in housing demand in the country. This trend requires a revision of demand forecasts for the coming years. Despite the low profitability of construction projects, developers continue to build to sustain their cash flow. Economists at the Bank of Israel emphasize that this negative emigration necessitates an adjustment in the strategic assessments of the Israeli housing market. The report highlights the need to adapt housing demand forecasts in response to this changing demographic dynamic.
