Israel to market 30,000 affordable housing units in 2022

The Ministry of Construction and Housing and the Israel Land Authority (ILA) said Wednesday that some 30,000 affordable housing units will be listed for sale this year, starting with 10,000 units set to go on the market before the Passover holiday in April.

The project was aimed at lowering Israel’s spiraling housing prices and making homeownership more accessible. But the program has been criticized for not providing the quality, size, and location of apartments suitable for the intended buyers.
