Tax on the sale of an apartment in Israel

Apartment sale tax in Israel

The tax on the sale of an apartment in Israel depends on the difference between the purchase price and the sale price of an apartment, while expenses are also taken into account (attorney’s fee, intermediary’s fee, apartment renovation, etc.). At the same time, in the event of a sale, there are also a number of tax benefits, which can go up to full exemption from tax, that are subject to the fulfillment of the conditions determined by laws and various by-laws. Often, the same transaction may be subject to different clauses of the law, and it is very important to choose the best option, especially when taking into account the possibility of subsequent transactions.
