A new law passed by the Knesset significantly changes how real estate contracts are interpreted, prioritizing the written wording of agreements over external circumstances or the parties' intentions. This amendment limits a longstanding legal principle that allowed courts to look beyond the text, aiming to increase certainty and reduce judicial discretion in commercial contracts, especially in real estate. Legal experts highlight that every detail in a contract now carries greater weight, making careful drafting more crucial than ever. While the amendment enhances stability and risk management, it also places more responsibility on all parties involved to ensure their agreements are clear and comprehensive.
