At a press conference held at the Ministry of Finance in Jerusalem, the Ministers of Finance, Housing and the Interior presented today.



So what are the ministers offering to deal with the rise in housing prices?

At the joint press conference, Lieberman, Elkin and Shaked set rather ambitious goals that are to be pursued over four years.

Ministers talked about 280,000 construction starts and 70,000 starts each year.

Meanwhile, there is talk of planning 500,000 new housing units in the planning institutions, of which 125,000 each year.

In addition, it was decided to publish 300,000 tenders for housing units in state lands and 75,000 housing units each year.



And how do the ministers intend to implement their plan?

Regarding the increase in the discount and supply in the "discounted apartment", the ministers talked about raising the amount of the discount for winners of apartments up to NIS 500,000, in conjunction with the December 2020


assessment. An increase from 60% to 80%) to be allocated to those entitled to homelessness, as well as an increase in the percentage of locals in these lotteries from 25% to 35% throughout the country, while in priority area B the rate of housing units allocated to locals will increase from 32% to 40% Of all the apartments.



It was also proposed to increase the subsidy for the apartment at a discount in the periphery for development by up to an additional NIS 40,000.

The issue will come to the approval of the nearest housing cabinet.



It was also clarified that there is an intention to amend the Sale Law - linking the price of the apartment to the relevant part only, without the land component and without the profit differences of the contractor.

The amendment was approved by the Rami Council and will be applied to contracts with contractors in tenders close to "discounted apartments." At

the



press conference, the ministers referred mainly to the purchase of housing, but when it came to the sharp jump in rental prices, the Minister of Finance stuck to what he said to Liat Ron in Walla! A few days ago and in fact did not present a detailed reference: "Rise in housing prices 2022 is one and a half percent, according to the CBS data. I assume that with regard to what we heard about a 40% increase, it is difficult to accept that there is such an increase on a national scale.



The person who referred to the rental situation in Israel is Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked, who proposed amending the planning and building regulations to create an economic incentive for local authorities to promote rental housing in brown land - public land, by mixing uses in which public buildings will be built with rental apartments.

"Advances in Jabotinsky's Approach"

The Minister of Finance, Avigdor Lieberman

: "We continue to lead significant moves to address the housing challenges in the State of Israel. I advocate Jabotinsky's approach and that is to allow the five MMs, one of which is housing.

The plan we presented today is comprehensive and addresses failures in the housing market on the three main levels and they are supply, land prices and linkage to the construction input index and bureaucracy and lengthy construction procedures.

We will continue to work to influence and upgrade the quality of life of all citizens of the country. "



Minister of Construction and Housing, Zeev Elkin

:" We promised to turn every stone in order to bring solutions to young couples and keep apartment buyers in front of contractors and we do.

The plan is comprehensive and not a one-step magic solution.

We believe that this basket, which consists of steps that are already being taken these days and new steps that will be launched very soon, will stabilize the real estate market in Israel.



This is a plan in which the state waives between NIS 12 billion and NIS 20 billion of land revenues in the coming years.

This important plan was necessary and necessary in the face of the current reality.

I thank the Minister of Finance and the Minister of the Interior for their full cooperation on the way to formulating the plan and for the cooperation with all the government ministries and various bodies.

This cooperation between all the players in the field of housing is unprecedented and it ensures that through the joint measures we will be able to bring about the implementation of the entire program. "



Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked

: "We continue to work hard and fight the housing crisis. The housing program we presented today to the citizens of Israel is another series of important steps that are added to the steps already taken in the past year to help deal with the housing crisis. So far, building permits will be promoted more quickly by local authorities, decentralizing powers to local government so that they can plan on a larger scale, streamlining processes, opening barriers and helping to market apartments for rent within easy reach



. "On my shoulders - it is my top task in the office and despite the political instability, we do not take my foot off the gas for a moment."

The winners of the "discounted apartment" are disappointed

Meanwhile, it turns out that those who have already won the "discounted apartment" lottery held about a month ago, because the abolition of the input index and the proposed amendments to the Sale Law, will not apply to them.



Moreover, it is possible that those who win the following lotteries will not benefit from the proposed changes, if it turns out that the contractors have already paid for the land.
