Rental / Lease Agreements
Israeli law gives tenants the right to have a rental contract with their landlords. A rental agreement should contain the name, identity number and address of the landlord and it should clearly state that the landlord has title to the premises. The rental agreement should state the duration of the lease (usually one year). There are many other legal aspects to renting an apartment in Israel. Here is a brief list of the additional subjects that will be addressed in a lease agreement: insurance, breach of contract and penalties, return of securities, purpose of the rental (i.e. residential and not business), the option terms and how to exercise them, payment schedule and method of payment (bank deposit, check by mail), owner’s warranties as to electrical/plumbing, owner’s rights to enter apartment, tenant’s obligations to
maintain apartment and refrain from disturbing neighbors, inventory (furnishings and appliances).
TIP: Get a professionally written rental agreement or schedule an appoint to review an agreement before signing!
Sale / Purchase Agreements
Whether you’re buying or selling property, it’s important to understand your legal obligations from the very beginning.
You should never purchase or sell a property without hiring your own advocate.
