Your home in Israel, new and existing

Your property search, shaped by your criteria

Looking for an apartment, a house or a second home on the resale market? Together we define the cities or areas, budget, timeframe and essentials: rooms, balcony, safe room, parking, lift or access to schools and transport.

We search several sources and explain our selection: requirements met, compromises and points to confirm. Viewings and exchanges with your lawyer, financing broker or architect are arranged as agreed, locally or from abroad. The scope and any fees are clarified before commitment.

New-build or resale in Israel: how to choose?

There is no one-size-fits-all answer: the choice depends on your timeline, your overall budget and how you will use the home. Here are the questions that most often decide between the two paths.

Your timeline

New developments are often bought off-plan: you reserve today a home delivered later, with staged payments. An existing home is viewed as it is, and the handover of keys is negotiated with the seller. If you need to move in on a specific date, this difference matters a lot.

Your overall budget

In both cases, think in terms of a complete budget: price, purchase tax (mas rechisha), legal fees and other costs. For new-build, prices include 18% VAT and may be partly index-linked during construction. For resale, allow for possible works and, where relevant, agency fees. Our simulators give a first order of magnitude.

The home itself

New-build offers recent specifications: a safe room (mamad), lift, parking and current standards. Resale gives access to established neighbourhoods and addresses where nothing new is built; in return, the building’s condition and whether there is a mamad or a lift must be checked case by case.

The checks

New or resale, an independent lawyer checks the rights to the property and the contract before any commitment. For new-build, the focus is on bank guarantees, technical specifications and schedule. For resale, on the land registry (Tabo) status, any mortgages and the compliance of the construction.

Not sure? Both options can be explored in parallel: priorities often become clearer when you compare one new development with two or three existing homes.
