The Israeli Real Estate Maze helps local residents and foreign investors buy, sell or rent out their property in Israel while keeping their sanity intact.
Written by Nicole Levin, an expert in Israeli real estate law, it serves as a guide to understanding and navigating the various legal processes involved in property transactions in Israel.
Real estate transactions in Israel are complicated by legal issues which are sometimes very different from those in other countries and the book guides readers though the legal maze in a way that makes those differences clear, helping you understand what to expect and how to navigate potential pitfalls.
Used as a reference guide, The Israeli Real Estate Maze will allow real estate investors and others interested in the Israeli property market to better understand what questions are essential to ask, who the major players are in any real estate transaction, and how to profitably conduct any type of real estate deal in Israel.
