Buying property abroad? Your capital comes first.
In overseas real estate, the main risk is often not the price but what lies beneath it: unclear ownership, a missing permit, an early payment or the wrong tax structure. Our buyers’ track is designed to close these gaps, one after another.
Five threats to your capital
- 1OwnershipWho really owns the property, whether there is a charge, attachment or claim, and whether the register is up to date.
- 2PermitsWhether the property was built in accordance with a permit, whether there is an occupancy permit, and whether there are irregularities that will pass to you.
- 3Money in transitWhom you pay, when and on what basis. Unprotected deposits are the greatest risk in off-plan projects.
- 4Structure and taxIndividual or company, the tax treaty, and reporting to the Israel Tax Authority.
- 5Remote signingPower of attorney, apostille and translation. The wrong document can delay or derail the transaction.
