The full results of the latest 'Discounted Apartment' lottery show that reservists accounted for 60% of the 7,922 winning spots, with nearly one in five reservist applicants winning a unit, compared with fewer than 7% of all applicants, according to Jewish Breaking News.
The latest round of Israel's 'Discounted Apartment' (Machir Le'Mishkane) housing lottery allocated 7,922 units across 19 towns, with military reservists securing 60% of the winning spots, according to Jewish Breaking News. Of the reservists who applied, nearly one in five won a discounted apartment, compared with fewer than 7% of the general applicant pool. The analysis highlights the impact of the government's policy, which grants reservists additional lottery tickets and priority in the selection process. As The Zioneer reported on Sunday, the lottery results were officially announced with the same figures. The new report frames the outcome as the clearest evidence yet that the housing preference is delivering a meaningful advantage to those who serve in the IDF reserves.
