25%
Minimum
Israeli buyers need a minimum 25% down payment, valid passport, Teudat Zehut (ID number), 12 months of bank statements, Israeli tax returns (Mas Hachnasa), 2-3 bank reference letters, proof of income, and a CPA letter. Israel-specific: lenders in South Florida are familiar with Israeli documentation and the strong Israeli community makes the process well-established.
The mortgage process for Israeli buyers typically takes 30-45 days. Pre-qualification in 1-2 days, document collection 1-2 weeks, underwriting 2-3 weeks, closing 1 week. Israeli documents are well-recognized by South Florida lenders due to the large Israeli community in the area.
