The town is within the Sharonim regional planning committee, which publishes its own requirements for Land Registry certificates.
The Land Registry clearance certificate
In Tel Mond, the application for a Land Registry clearance certificate, or for renewing one, is filed through an online form on the local council website and is addressed to the collection department. The form asks for the property number in the collection department, the property address and the purpose of the certificate, which is a certificate of no debts for the Land Registrar.

Payment for the certificate is made on a separate payment page that the council links to.

The building file and the planning committee

Before signing, check the building file and the permits, and make sure the apartment has no additions, enclosures or subdivisions that were not approved. If you find a deviation, the contract can include a mechanism that places the risk on the seller, or you can negotiate the price.

Urban renewal
The Tel Mond Local Council website publishes minutes of the council planning committee from 7.3.2022, at which urban renewal projects in the Wolfson and Eli Cohen neighborhoods were presented. If you are buying an older apartment in these neighborhoods, check the planning status with the Sharonim Regional Planning Committee, whether an agreement with a developer has been signed and what it requires of the owners.

Land Registry, real estate taxation and the Israel Land Authority
In a sample check of blocks in Tel Mond in the Ministry of Justice office search, all the blocks checked are assigned to the Netanya Land Registry Office (18 Ben Zvi Blvd., Netanya, 4th floor, Government Center). Not all the blocks in the town were checked, so the office for a particular apartment is confirmed by its block number.
The transaction is reported to the Netanya Real Estate Taxation Office (Government Center, 18 Ben Zvi Blvd., Netanya). A property on Israel Land, owned by the State, the Jewish National Fund or the Development Authority, is handled by the Tel Aviv-Center region of the Israel Land Authority.
The assignment changes from time to time, so before filing it is worth confirming it by the apartment's block number with the search tool by block (data as of 14 November 2026). The municipal clearance certificate, who signs it and how to obtain it, is explained in the article on the municipal certificate for the Land Registry.
