Key Benefits
- Ample Preparation: Three months let you coordinate schedules with moving companies and handle last-minute to-do items without rushing.
- Better Negotiation: Sellers or landlords often appreciate well-planned transitions. You can sometimes negotiate modest perks or discounts if you can demonstrate reliable readiness.
- Inspection & Repairs: If the property requires basic updates—fresh paint or fixing minor defects—you can tackle them before physically relocating.
Points to Consider
- Securing a Good Rate: Israeli rent or purchase rates can shift with demand. While three months might see small fluctuations, you’ll also benefit from more time to compare multiple options.
- Local Bureaucracy: Acquiring the right permits or hooking up services like gas and cable often moves smoother when you’re not pressed for time.
- Potential Overlaps: If you’re leaving your current place, watch out for double rent or mortgage overlap. Three months is helpful but can also increase short-term expenses if not planned well.
Next Step
