New immigrants arriving in Israel will benefit from a recent Cabinet decision to link government mortgages partially to the cost-of-living index. This will permit them to take out larger mortgages at low rates of interest, repayable between 20-25 years. The scheme, approved for young couples and large families; will apply to immigrants as of July 1.
