Property Sales
Selling real estate requires expertise in a wide range of legal procedures, from reviewing the land registry extract (Tabu) to coordinating with tax authorities, the municipality, and the Land Registry Office. These steps are essential to assess the legal and registration status of the property, ensuring, for example, that there are no liens, encumbrances, third-party debts, or liabilities that could delay the process.
High-quality legal counsel is critical to protect both the seller and the buyer, as failure to comply with bureaucratic requirements, unclear third-party rights, or outdated documentation can lead to delays, disputes, and unexpected costs.
Our firm guides clients throughout the entire process, from title examination and drafting the sale agreement, including future risk protections, to financial guidance and, finally, completing the ownership transfer, setting up escrow accounts, and submitting reports to the Tax Authority and Land Registry Office.
We ensure the transaction is legally valid, safe, and efficient. Additionally, our firm specializes in supporting foreign residents selling property in Israel, including property management, estate management for non-residents, registration of wills and inheritance under Israeli law, and resolving complex registration issues common to foreign-owned assets. This includes handling matters with the land authorities and tax offices to ensure a smooth and secure transfer of ownership.
