About IsraelHomeowner.com

IsraelHomeowner.com is an online real estate service designed to provide you with information regarding the process of building, buying, selling, renovating and/or repairing homes in Israel, information regarding different communities in Israel and listings of real estate properties available for sale and/or rent in Israel as well as store, supplier and service provider listings, surveys and forums.

All visitors to our site may browse the site, view any articles and forum postings or any other features our site has to offer and search the ads and directory without entering any personal information.

Submitting a real estate property to the website’s listing of properties for rent and/or for sale, posting a response to an article, posting within a forum and participating in the ranking of stores, suppliers and service providers requires the creation of a member profile. In order to do this, we must ask you for certain personal information.
