Israeli businessman Eyal Waldman has bought several apartments in Israel Canada's Rainbow project in Sde Dov in north Tel Aviv, a source close to the deal has told "Globes." Waldman has purchased an entire floor, on one of the highest floors of a planned tower, for NIS 50 million. "Globes" has also learned that Waldman intends merging them a single apartment, covering 550 square meters.
According to the information provided to "Globes," Waldman will be paying NIS 90,000 per square meter, without finishing for the apartment - as he plans merging the apartments into one. This type of deal without finishing and interior design is more usual in the office real estate market.
Waldman is currently the owner and chairman of Waldo Holdings . He founded tech connectivity company Mellanoxm which was sold to Nvidia in 2020 for more than $7 billion. On October 7, Waldman's daughter Danielle and her partner Noam Shay were murdered near the Gaza border by Hamas.
