What the episode is about

Apartment prices in Israel keep moving further out of reach for many young couples. In the episode, Michael Toiber hosts Ilan for a conversation on whether investing in real estate abroad can be an alternative: instead of trying to reach the equity required for an apartment in Israel, starting with a smaller property overseas.

For those weighing this direction, the guides below deal with the questions that come up right after the decision: how to finance from abroad, what to report in Israel, and which warning signs call for a stop.

The summary is based on the episode description published by the podcast's creators. These things were said in a recording from August 27, 2026. Since then, laws, tax rates, interest rates and prices may have changed. The summaries were written by us and reflect what was said at the time of recording.
