Managing a property in Israel can be a complex and time-consuming challenge, especially for overseas owners who are not always available to supervise their investments firsthand. From handling repairs to navigating bureaucracy, property owners need a reliable, experienced and transparent team to ensure their homes are well-maintained and efficiently managed. That’s exactly where Kol Echad Properties comes in.
Founded by David Yaakov Finkel and Eric Hanfling, Kol Echad Properties is redefining the property management experience in Israel. With an all-inclusive approach, the company offers a seamless solution that takes care of every aspect of homeownership—whether the property is occupied, rented or sitting vacant. Their deep understanding of both construction and administrative processes allows them to offer services that go beyond traditional property management.
What sets Kol Echad Properties apart from other property management companies? Most firms outsource maintenance and repairs, relying on third-party plumbers, electricians and contractors. Kol Echad, however, keeps the basic, minor repairs in-house, ensuring higher-quality work, faster service and lower costs. This approach not only saves property owners time and money but also ensures that issues are identified and resolved before they become major problems.
With David Yaakov Finkel’s extensive background in HVAC, plumbing and electrical work, Kol Echad Properties offers expertise that most property managers simply don’t have. After a decade of experience in heating and air conditioning, along with six years working in plumbing, electrical and general construction, Finkel understands the importance of preventative maintenance. “We don’t wait for things to break—we find the problem before it happens,” he explained. Having managed a small property-management firm in New York’s Central Park area, Finkel brings a level of professionalism and industry knowledge that is rare in the Israeli market.
Transparency is a key value at Kol Echad Properties. Unlike many competitors, there are no hidden fees. Property owners know exactly what they’re paying for, ensuring trust and confidence in the process. The company offers four tiered management plans, allowing homeowners to choose a level of service that fits their needs and budget.
For those who require comprehensive management, Kol Echad provides high-end services, including cleaning for Pesach, building a sukkah, pest control, kashering kitchens, and custom maintenance plans tailored to each property’s specific needs. Every home is unique, and Kol Echad ensures that owners receive personalized service with full documentation and updates along the way.
One of the biggest challenges foreign property owners face in Israel is dealing with government offices, utility companies and rental regulations. This is where Eric Hanfling’s expertise comes into play. Having lived in Israel for five years and serving as a tank driver in the IDF, Hanfling developed a deep understanding of Israeli systems, as well as practical skills in construction and home maintenance. Fluent in Hebrew, he helps clients navigate bureaucratic hurdles, ensuring their properties comply with regulations and utility services are handled efficiently.
Hanfling’s background in project management for a New York-based contracting company has equipped him with the organizational skills to oversee renovations, maintenance and administrative tasks with precision. “We want property owners to feel completely at ease, knowing that everything is taken care of properly,” he said.
While Kol Echad Properties is primarily based in Israel’s coastal cities, where the founders live and work, their services extend far beyond. The company is fully equipped to manage properties in Jerusalem and other locations across the country. Whether the property is a luxury rental in Tel Aviv, a vacation home in Netanya, or an empty apartment awaiting tenants in Jerusalem, Kol Echad is committed to providing exceptional service no matter the circumstances.
Their property management services include:
Tenant supervision—helping owners find responsible renters and ensuring the home remains in top condition.
Infrastructure maintenance—not just overseeing furnishings but also handling plumbing, electrical systems and structural concerns.
Property documentation—keeping detailed records and reports on maintenance and management activities.
Kol Echad Properties is not just about managing homes, it’s about building relationships and creating a sense of trust for property owners. Finkel and Hanfling envision growing their company into a national brand with dozens of employees, ensuring that no matter where a property is located in Israel, it receives the highest level of care.
The company name, “Kol Echad,” which translates to “All as One,” reflects their philosophy: treating every home with the same care and attention as if it were their own. Their honest, hands-on approach, combined with their technical expertise and commitment to transparency, is what makes them Israel’s premier choice for property management.
Whether you own a home in Israel and need peace of mind, or you’re looking for a trustworthy partner to manage your property, Kol Echad Properties is ready to help.
With Kol Echad Properties, you can rest easy knowing your home is in expert hands.
