Paz Group
Paz Group was founded in 2006, at a time when real estate prices in Israel were at a historic low. The company began its journey by purchasing apartments in Petah Tikva for as little as 500,000–600,000 shekels, renovating them, and renting them out.
Thanks to the low prices and favorable financing conditions, the company quickly expanded its activity, acquiring numerous properties not only in Petah Tikva but also in Givat Shmuel, Ramat Gan, Herzliya, Netanya, Bnei Brak, Jerusalem, Be’er Sheva, and Haifa.
Today, Paz Group owns hundreds of thousands of square meters of residential apartments, office spaces, storage units, and more.
In 2009, following the subprime crisis, the company broadened its scope and launched a real estate acquisition campaign in the United States, which continues to this day. Paz Group has raised capital from over 500 investors and now co-owns hundreds of residential real estate assets in Orlando and Jacksonville (Florida), Cincinnati and Cleveland (Ohio), and Rochester (New York).
With the purchasing power of hundreds of new and returning investors, and with the full backing of Israeli banks, the company continues to acquire real estate on a daily basis—both in Israel and in the U.S.

Personal Guidance Program
The Personal Guidance Program is designed for investors who want to independently enter the U.S. real estate market, purchase a private property below market value through foreclosures, bank-owned properties, bankruptcies, or distressed sales without paying Israeli broker fees, and with the benefit of expert support.
This program is ideal for investors who need guidance in areas such as:
-
Acquiring the necessary knowledge
-
Building local connections in the U.S.
-
Finding the right property that fits their needs and budget
How Does It Work?
As part of the program, the investor will meet with Yariv Paz, the company’s founder, for an educational training session.
In this session, the investor will learn how to:
-
Identify and analyze real estate deals in the U.S. like a developer
-
Understand the key elements of successful property management
-
Minimize unnecessary costs
-
Use practical tools to maximize returns and manage investments more effectively
We will then find a property that matches the investor’s personal criteria and budget, and guide them through the entire acquisition and renovation process, including all bureaucratic and legal steps—with the help of vetted, experienced professionals we work closely with.
In addition, Yariv will personally connect the investor with trusted service providers he has worked with over the years.
