Yehud-Monosson Apartment Prices in 2026 – The Real Numbers
The Yehud-Monosson market presents a layered picture: second-hand prices are still relatively accessible, while new construction is already approaching neighboring city levels. A 3-room second-hand apartment sells for NIS 1.7M–2.2M; new construction costs NIS 2.35M–2.7M. A 4-room second-hand apartment ranges NIS 2.2M–2.8M; new projects price it at NIS 2.85M–3.5M or higher. New 5-room apartments reach NIS 3.5M–4M.
The average price per square meter across the city ranges from approximately NIS 27,500 to NIS 30,500, with Gadot neighborhood projects already pricing at around NIS 32,000/sqm. Transaction volume jumped 51% between H1 2024 and H1 2025, signaling accelerating buyer demand.
The market is not uniform. Kiryat HaSivyonim, adjacent to the upscale Savyon enclave, is the city most expensive and sought-after neighborhood. Neve Monosson, with semi-detached homes and a semi-rural character, commands a premium too. The historic city center offers lower entry prices with urban renewal upside potential.

How Much Can You Save Versus Neighboring Cities?
The price gap is the central argument for buying in Yehud-Monosson. While Kiryat Ono prices apartments at NIS 36,000–45,000 per sqm, Yehud offers comparable units at NIS 27,000–30,500/sqm. On a 100 sqm apartment, that is a saving of NIS 650,000 to NIS 1.5 million.
The gap exists for historical reasons: poor public transport and a slightly lower educational profile than top Gush Dan cities. Both disadvantages are actively being addressed — the Purple Line resolves transport access, and the influx of young educated families is shifting the demographic profile.
Or Yehuda, once cheaper than Yehud, now shows similar new-construction prices (NIS 28,000–29,000/sqm). Yehud offers genuine value specifically relative to the premium cities of Kiryat Ono and Givat Shmuel.
- Price per sqm: Yehud NIS 27,500–30,500 | Kiryat Ono: NIS 36,000–45,000+
- Saving on a 100 sqm apartment vs. Kiryat Ono: NIS 650,000–1,500,000
- Matriculation rate: 83.9% in Yehud (2022) vs. ~92% in Kiryat Ono
- Or Yehuda: similar price range (NIS 28,000–29,000/sqm in new projects)
- Price gap vs. Kiryat Ono: up to 35%, even after Yehud 3.5% price rise in 2024–2025
The Purple Line, Gadot Neighborhood, and Urban Renewal – 2028–2035 Potential
Three major transformations are reshaping Yehud-Monosson. First: the Purple Line (Dankal), 27 km, 46 stations, opening 2028, operating every 4 minutes, carrying 256,000 passengers per day — connecting Yehud directly to Tel Aviv. Experience from the operational Red Line shows significant price appreciation near stations after opening.
Second: the Gadot neighborhood — 4,413 housing units adjacent to Savyon, with 392,000 sqm of commercial space, 90 dunams of green space, and a 15-minute city design concept. First buildings are already occupied. Shakhakim will add ~3,500 more units.
Third: urban renewal — three major complexes approved, demolition underway: Mohliver (1,344 new units replacing 336), Ben-Tzvi-Katzenson (1,083 replacing 320), Bikovsky-Kedoshei Mitzraim (1,350 replacing 284). Citywide: 5,500 old units to be replaced in three phases.
- Purple Line: 46 stations, opens 2028, 4-minute frequency
- Gadot: 4,413 units, 392K sqm office/commercial, 90 dunam parks — active construction
- Shakhakim: ~3,500 additional units on the eastern edge
- Urban renewal: 3 major complexes approved, demolition active
- Yehud 2040: from 32,000 to 90,000 residents
Pros, Cons, and Risks – What You Need to Know Before Buying
The primary risk is infrastructure delay: the Purple Line has a history of timeline revisions. Additionally, tens of thousands of new apartments entering the market could place downward pressure on rental prices.
There are also infrastructure capacity concerns: the city is growing faster than its road systems. The municipality itself has challenged certain planning approvals on density grounds.
On the other side: lower entry price, stable demand from young families and tech workers, strong community identity, and approximately 3.5% gross rental yield — among the highest available in central Israel.
- Advantage: 20%–35% cheaper than Kiryat Ono and Givat Shmuel for comparable apartments
- Advantage: Purple Line 2028 — buy before the market prices in transport access
- Advantage: ~3.5% gross rental yield — above average for central Israel
- Risk: Possible delay in Purple Line opening (history of postponements)
- Risk: Infrastructure stress during intensive construction phase
- Risk: Large supply of new apartments may compress rental prices
