In Jerusalem’s dynamic real estate market, understanding standard agent fees is crucial for both buyers and sellers. Typically, agents charge a 2% commission of the property’s purchase price from each party, exclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT). This means both the buyer and seller each pay their respective 2% commission plus VAT upon the transaction’s completion.

Agent Fees for Purchases & Rentals

For rental agreements, the customary agent fees are equivalent to one month’s rent for leases of one year or longer. In cases of long-term rentals, usually extending beyond three years, agents often charge a fee amounting to 5% of the total lease value. These practices are especially prevalent among agencies catering to overseas clientele, ensuring that international clients receive comprehensive support throughout the transaction process.
