Housing Rights

As a new immigrant you have a right to a tehoodat zakaoot (this is a rental subsidy paid to you for five years)!
The bank may tell you that you need a lease if you are renting, however, actually, the law states that you DO NOT need to have a lease within the first year here.
You are entitled to the money even without a lease.
So if the bank tells you that you need a lease, you must correct them.

This is also entitling you to a discount and help if you choose to buy and get a mortgage (mishkanta).
To get your mortgage and rights, go to bank fahot.
