Typically, residents are required to pay an upfront deposit—often between approximately NIS 530,000 and NIS 1.8 million. In addition, a monthly maintenance fee is charged, usually in the range of NIS 3,000 to NIS 5,000. This deposit isn’t entirely “lost”; it depreciates gradually—by about 2–4% per year over a period of 10 to 12 years—and any remaining balance is eventually returned to the resident’s heirs.
These figures can vary depending on the specific facility and the services offered, but they provide a general guideline for the entrance fee structure in diur mugan communities in Israel.
