There are several types of land in Israel, and it is important to know what the land type is when you are planning to purchase it for investment or residential purposes.<\/p>\n

\n
1. Residential land: The designation of this land is residential and the land is intended for construction. Note that there are lands that may become residential in the future although, at the time of the purchase, they are designated for other purposes. To change the designation of the land, a special procedure is required via regional and local committees, and this procedure is expensive and complex.<\/li>\n
2. Land designated for offices and commerce: This type of land is designated for the construction of commercial shops, offices, and any place related to business. These lands may not be used for the construction of residential homes unless the designation of the land is changed via the local committee; therefore, their price is different.<\/li>\n
3. Land for industrial and developmental purposes: These lands are designated for the construction of factories and industrial buildings. They are usually located on the outskirts of cities and beyond. In rare cases, industrial land may be changed to residential land by the decision of the planning authorities.<\/li>\n
4. Tourist land: This type of land is designated for hotels and various tourist activities such as guesthouses, hostels, recreation centers, and amusement parks.<\/li>\n
5. Agricultural land: This type of land is the most common in Israel, and it is designated for solely agricultural purposes. Its price is significantly lower than that of other types of land due to the low return on its output.<\/li>\n
6. Land designated for transportation: This type of land is designated for transportation purposes, such as road construction, parking lots, railways, and airports. These lands are usually owned by the State, and their designation cannot be changed.<\/li>\n
7. Open areas: This is the definition of all other types of land in Israel that are not included in any of the above categories. This type includes nature reserves, forests, and any other unbuilt land.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
