Real Estate (Nadlan)
A real estate transaction is often the biggest deal of your life, and every clause in the contract can affect your money and your peace of mind for years. Close legal guidance ensures you enter the deal with eyes open and no surprises.
I accompany you at every stage, checking rights and encumbrances (mortgages, liens), drafting or reviewing the contract, negotiation and the tax aspects, through to registering the rights in your name at the Land Registry (Tabu).
Whether you are buying, selling or renting, my goal is to protect your interests and turn a complex deal into a clear, secure process.
How I can help
- Sale contracts (purchase and sale) of apartments and properties
- Rental contracts, for landlords and tenants
- Due diligence: rights, encumbrances, permits, liens
- Taxation (purchase tax mas rechisha, betterment tax mas shevach) and Tabu registration
Frequently asked questions
Is a lawyer required for a real estate deal in Israel?
It's not a legal obligation, but in practice it's almost always essential: the lawyer drafts and reviews the contract, checks rights and encumbrances, and handles the tax filings and registration at the Land Registry (Tabu). For a deal of this size, legal guidance is your best protection.
Which taxes apply?
On purchase you usually pay purchase tax (mas rechisha, in brackets); on a sale, betterment/capital-gains tax (mas shevach) may apply. I review your situation, check possible exemptions and ensure a correct, timely filing.
What should I check before signing a lease?
The suitability of the securities (guarantee, promissory note), the exit terms, responsibility for repairs, and compliance with the Fair Rental Law. I draft or review the lease so that it protects you.
When should I consult a lawyer, before or after finding a property?
As early as possible. It's best to consult even before signing a memorandum of understanding (zikhron dvarim), so you don't commit to problematic terms. Consulting early saves money and aggravation.
