How do I find a place to live in Israel?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Israel is to use online resources such as websites and classifieds. Websites such as Yad2, Nefesh B'Nefesh, and Zoopla are great resources for finding apartments, houses, and other rental properties. Additionally, classifieds such as Craigslist and Gumtree can be used to find rental properties. Additionally, it is possible to find a place to live in Israel by networking with friends, family, and colleagues who may know of available rental properties. Finally, it is possible to find a place to live in Israel by contacting real estate agents who specialize in rental properties," said a member in Israel.

"I found an amazing relocation service through a guy named Rani. He found me accomodation and a job and helped me with everything, including opening a bank account, acquiring a credit balance, access to free medical aid, he even took me to the grocery store to familiarize me with all the products. Then he had referred me to a 5 hour Hebrew training crash course where I learned basic Hebrew," remarked another expat who made the move to Tel Aviv, Israel.
