Israel's Ministry of Justice has introduced new default rental contract rules to clarify landlord and tenant rights on repairs, deposits, rent increases, and early lease termination. Landlords must fix essential infrastructure defects promptly, deposits are capped, and rent hikes during extensions are limited to inflation. Courts may allow early lease termination if a suitable replacement tenant is found. The rules also protect tenants when properties are sold mid-lease.
