You’re zeroing in on the heart of Ramat Beit Shemesh’s newer, Haredi-centric communities. Neighborhoods Gimmel and Daled, while geographically close, have developed distinct market identities that influence their rental and sales prices. Understanding the subtle differences is key to navigating this dynamic area.
Let’s break down the “going rate” for a standard 4-room (three-bedroom) apartment, which is a staple for young families in these neighborhoods.
Ramat Beit Shemesh Gimmel (RBS Gimmel)
-
The Vibe: Gimmel is the more established of the two. It’s largely built out, with a mature network of synagogues, schools, and shops. It feels like a settled, functioning community.
-
Rental Prices: As of late 2025, the monthly rent for a 4-room apartment in Gimmel typically ranges from 5,000 to 6,000 shekels. Prices can be influenced by proximity to a specific community’s shul or school, as well as the condition of the apartment and whether it includes a storage room (
makhsan). -
Sales Prices: To purchase a 4-room apartment, expect prices to be in the range of 2.4 to 2.8 million shekels. The higher end of this range will be for well-maintained apartments in desirable buildings.
Ramat Beit Shemesh Daled (RBS Daled)
-
The Vibe: Daled is the newer frontier. While rapidly developing, parts of it are still under construction. This creates a different energy—one of potential and growth, but also of a community still finding its footing. It has attracted a very diverse mix of Haredi groups.
-
Rental Prices: Reflecting its newer status and ongoing construction, rental prices in Daled are slightly lower than in Gimmel. A 4-room apartment here generally rents for 4,500 to 5,500 shekels per month. You might find a brand-new apartment for a price comparable to an older one in Gimmel.
-
Sales Prices: The opportunity for buyers in Daled has been in getting in early. Purchase prices for a 4-room apartment are currently in the 2.2 to 2.6 million shekel range. You can often get a newer property for a price similar to or less than an older one in Gimmel.
Key Market Factors In both neighborhoods, value is heavily tied to community life. An apartment’s desirability is often measured by its walking distance to a specific Rabbi’s shul or a particular school system. Furthermore, ground floor apartments with gardens or penthouses with large terraces will always command a significant premium over standard units.
In summary, Gimmel offers stability at a slightly higher price point, while Daled offers newer construction and slightly better value, with the trade-off being a community that is still in its development phase.
