Investment in Katamon 2026 — The Numbers

Katamon offers an interesting investment profile: a slightly lower entry price than Bak'a, with respectable yields and value appreciation.

Yields

3-room apartment at 2.4M ₪ → Rent: 6,800 ₪/month → Gross yield: 3.4%

4-room apartment at 3.0M ₪ → Rent: 8,500 ₪/month → Gross yield: 3.4%

Renters in Katamon

Who rents in Katamon? Families with children, students from the Hebrew University, young couples. Consistent demand throughout the year.

Value Appreciation

2019–2025: Katamon increased by 44% — below Bak'a (62%), but above the Jerusalem average (45%).

Gonim — A Secret Weapon

Gonim (Katamon C) with private homes is one of the neighborhoods with the highest potential for appreciation — very limited supply, increasing demand. Homes that sold for 4.5M in 2020 went for 6.5M in 2025.

Risk

Katamon — like Bak'a — has a high entry price. Negative cash flow in the first years with high leverage. Intended for investors with strong equity.
