Summary: What You Need to Know About Real Estate Attorney Fees

The cost of a real estate attorney in a property transaction is not fixed and depends on the type of transaction, the property value, the complexity of the process, and the law firm's discretion. Typically, representation fees for buying or selling an apartment range from 2,500 to 5,500 shekels, while more complex transactions (TAMA 38, land subdivision, mortgage company) may be more expensive.

Most importantly, you should understand in advance what is included in the fees, what is not, and whether there are any possible additional costs. An attorney must provide you with a written agreement that details the rate and scope of work.
