Housing Loan Expert Advises on Common Mistakes and Opportunities

Buying a home is a major aspiration for many, especially young couples, but current real estate prices make housing loans, known as 'Mashkanta' in Israel, an essential part of this dream. Sahar Najm, a housing loan consultant with over 17 years of financial and banking experience, including years working within a bank, emphasized the importance of understanding these loans. Najm has established the first college to train Mashkanta consultants in Arabic.

In an interview with Hala channel, Najm discussed Mashkanta loans in simple terms, highlighting common mistakes individuals make and the challenges facing the Arab community in this area. He also touched upon the opportunities available for the younger generation in the field of housing loans.

Najm's expertise stems from his extensive background in the financial sector, including his time working directly for a bank. His current initiative aims to educate and professionalize Mashkanta consultants, particularly within the Arabic-speaking community.
