Doron Aharoni Law Firm – Real Estate Lawyer, Tel-Aviv, Israel
Doron Aharoni Law Firm is a real estate law firm with offices in Tel Aviv and Kfar Sava, Israel.
The biggest difference in tax is decided before you sign
A real estate transaction is more than a contract. It is a financial and family decision with tax consequences that last for years. At Doron Aharoni & Co. we plan the entire transaction: who sells and who buys, when, in what order and in what structure, so that the tax you pay is the lowest the law allows. We draft the agreement as the outcome of that planning, not as the starting point.
Our Team
Doron Aharoni, Adv. – Founder & Owner
I practice real estate and real estate tax law and hold an LL.B. (with honors). I have been a member of the Israel Bar Association since 2003. I lead tax planning at the firm: before every transaction I examine all the available routes and build the plan that reduces the tax burden within the law. I share this knowledge on the site, in the articles and on our YouTube channel.
Galit Weiss, Adv. – Senior Partner
Galit holds an LL.B. and an LL.M. (Master of Laws) from Tel Aviv University and has been a member of the Israel Bar Association since 2011. She represents buyers and sellers in real estate transactions and advises on urban renewal projects (TAMA 38 and Pinui Binui).
In addition to her real estate practice, Galit heads the firm’s family asset planning practice, handling inheritance matters, estate distribution agreements and wills. She is also authorized by the Ministry of Justice to draft Enduring Powers of Attorney, helping clients plan ahead for the management of their assets.
Our Services
Tax Planning and Strategy in Real Estate Transactions: Before every deal we examine all the routes: exemptions, transfers between relatives, division of assets, timing, and sequence of actions. This knowledge is the core of our practice, and we share it openly in the articles and videos on this site.
Full Representation for Buyers and Sellers, from Planning to Completion: Planning is only the beginning. We represent sellers and buyers throughout the transaction: negotiation, drafting, signing, reporting to the authorities, registration, and the receipt of funds or the property, until the deal is fully completed.
Representation for Foreign Residents: We represent international clients, investors and foreign residents buying or selling property in Israel. We can handle the process remotely, deal with the local authorities on your behalf and look after your interests while you are abroad.
High-Value and Complex Transactions: Personal representation in transactions involving high-value homes, plots and commercial properties, including in-depth checks designed to reduce the risk of costly surprises.
Intergenerational Transfers: Planning property transfers within the family, using the available tax exemptions and reliefs, with attention to family relationships.
Inheritance and Estate Distribution: Handling inherited assets with care, including drafting estate distribution agreements between heirs to help avoid future disputes.
From Planning to Completion
A good strategy is worth something only if it is carried out correctly. That is why we represent you throughout the transaction, at every stage.
If you are selling
After the strategy is built, we guide you through every stage of the sale:
- Drafting the sale agreement
- Conducting the legal negotiation with the buyers’ attorney
- Guiding you through the signing of the agreement
- Reporting to the Tax Authority to obtain an exemption from land appreciation tax, or a payment voucher
- Applying to the local authority for the municipal and local planning committee approvals
- Managing the transaction through completion, until the full payment is in your hands
If you are buying
We guide you from the negotiation to registering the property in your name:
- Conducting the legal negotiation with the sellers’ attorney until a mutually agreed contract is drafted
- Personal guidance from Doron at the signing of the purchase agreement
- Reporting the transaction to the Tax Authority to issue a purchase tax certificate for registration, or a payment voucher, as applicable
- Registering a priority notice (caveat) in your favor immediately after signing
- Registering a priority notice in favor of the lending bank, for your mortgage
- Managing the transaction through completion and registering your ownership of the property, including the mortgage
Why Choose Us?
In a multimillion-shekel transaction, the difference between a good deal and an excellent one is made in the planning. We look at the whole picture: all of the family’s assets, the current transaction, and the transactions and inheritance that follow. From that we build one coordinated plan that saves tax and protects your wealth.
We don’t disappear after the planning. The same firm that builds the strategy manages the transaction itself, through the final registration and the receipt of your funds.
Over 23 years of experience and thousands of transactions. And if a deal is dangerous for you, we will tell you and stop it.
Your next transaction begins with the right strategy. Let’s plan it together.
