Important to know

Tachles Israel is an independent information service, not a government authority. Check binding conditions, eligibility and deadlines with the official source.

Before you start

An address and door number may not identify the registered unit. Match the property and proposed signatory first.

Who is this guide for?

Prospective tenants and buyers checking basic registration.

!
Conditions and exceptions

An extract reflects registration at issue. It does not check building permits, engineering condition or every transaction risk; other registers may require another rights document.

03

Check identity and signing authority

Compare registered rights holders with the contract; check any representative's authorisation and seek professional checks for companies or inheritance.
What should you prepare?

Extract; identification or authorisation for inspection.

Please note

A document photo must relate to the correct property.

04

List entries needing explanation

Ask about mortgages, attachments, restrictions and inconsistencies, requesting supporting documents.
What should you prepare?

List of entries; documents supplied.

Please note

An entry alone does not establish whether a transaction can proceed.

05

Arrange other checks separately

Check physical condition, planning, permitted use and debts separately; seek professional review before purchase or a material discrepancy.
What should you prepare?

Property file; open questions.

Please note

This is not a legal or engineering inspection.

These links let you check with the responsible authority. The website's verification date does not guarantee that every detail has remained up to date since then.

Frequently asked questions

Is an older extract supplied by the seller enough?

Obtain a current extract yourself and compare identifiers and dates; it shows registration when issued.
