Thousands of victims of purchasing groups can not register for the "Discounted Apartment" raffle

Members of purchasing groups left homeless are now suffering another blow, this time sponsored by the state.

As far as the tax authorities are concerned, they are considered apartment owners and therefore they can not register for the "discounted apartment" lotteries of the Ministry of Housing.

"All those people are injured twice," says attorney Il Reiper, "and we must help them."

It's a little hard to believe, but thousands of former purchasing group members, who lost all their savings in the ventures of Eldad Perry and Inbal Or, are now taking another hit - this time under state auspices.

Since joining the purchasing group required all those members to transfer thousands of shekels to the tax authorities, they are now considered apartment owners by the state, although it is clear that the vast majority will not have an apartment, and fortunately some will see only some of the money they invested.

"This registration now creates a significant problem for all those people," says attorney Il Reiper, who helps some of the buyers. They have an apartment.

That's how they get stuck without money and without an apartment. "

Cancellation of the registration can take months

It turns out that the unfortunate registration of the rights made to the members of the purchasing groups is going to shake them even when they want to register for the "Price per Tenant" lottery, the original discount project of former Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon.

"All those people can't get these benefits because they supposedly have an apartment. It's a complete absurdity," says Advocate Reiper.

What do you do anyway and how do you get out of the mess? "The housing authority must convince the tax authority that the sale of their apartment has been canceled. For this purpose, an application must be submitted to the tax authority, and after deleting the registration, contact the Ministry of Housing again."

The trouble is that conducting such a procedure with the state takes many months, and meanwhile the big lotteries of the Ministry of Housing are closing.

"In fact, all those people who have been injured are staring blankly at others and can no longer get on the cart and get a discounted apartment,

"The state actually punishes them twice," Advocate Reiper continues.

The solution: An administrative petition to cancel the registration of the apartment

These days, Adv. Reiper is helping former members of the purchasing groups exercise their rights so that they will have another opportunity to purchase an apartment at a significant discount.

"

In the petitions filed against the Ministry of Housing, we want to abolish the status that states that those people own apartments in order to allow them to register for lotteries. "

In addition, Adv. In vain.

"Some of the buyers were granted a tax exemption on the purchase of their first apartment, but others were required to pay hefty sums that the state had to repay them."
