Last week, Eran Sib, chairman of the Association of Renovation Contractors, wrote here that renovation in Tel Aviv is an expensive matter. By the municipality, "wrote Fiber," renovations in Tel Aviv have become almost impossible, and this is even before the congestion levy that is preparing to enter in 2025. All of these continue a trend in the industry that began in recent years and intensified this year - many renovation contractors are simply not willing to take jobs "A trend that could definitely get worse next year and in the next decade."

The municipality wanted to clarify that this is not the case.

"The Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality will step up its efforts to encourage homeowners to renovate their properties, and has approved a package of unprecedented incentives to renovate residential buildings," the municipality said. When the municipality invests NIS 100 million, the increased incentives are just one step in the municipal plan, which aims to move from an approach of sporadic and spot renovations once every few years - to an approach of sustainable maintenance.

Tel Aviv-Yafo Mayor Ron Huldai: "The new plan changes the rules of the game. After two decades in which we have made a comprehensive upgrade of public infrastructure - sidewalks and roads, boulevards and parks, taking care of street furniture and public space visibility - we will work hard to strengthen homeowners It's not just aesthetics - although it's not a bad word; it's a true urban value: the appearance of the public space restores entire areas of the city to their residents, contributes to a vibrant community life, raises the attractiveness of the urban street and thus contributes to business and commerce, and "The sense of personal security and governance. And yes - it is also aesthetic, and creates value for tenants and homeowners."

So how do you achieve maximum upgrade in Tel Aviv-Yafo with minimum headache?

Prior to the commencement of the works, a qualified inspector must conduct a situation assessment of the maintenance of the building, and accordingly sew a "personal renovation suit" for each building.

In the renovation of the facades of the building, the tenants are incorporated to carry out a renovation of the common property, and by virtue of a majority decision they can motivate the process to be carried out.

The "Beit Plus" department of Ezra and Batzron provides tenants with an extensive basket of incentives to help finance the renovation.
