Israel Land Authority — 3 Communities, One Community
The confusing aspect for most searching for real estate in Gush Adumim is that the Kfar Adumim association consists of 3 separate communities: the established Kfar Adumim, the younger Nofei Prat, and Alon. They all share administration, educational institutions, and community — but the prices, character, and growth potential differ. Here’s a comprehensive comparison.
Established Kfar Adumim
- Year: 1979 (45+ years)
- Residents: ~2,500
- Homes: 2.5-5 million ₪
- Advantage: Established community, mature infrastructure, few new buildings
- Disadvantage: Difficult to enter — homes do not become available easily, low turnover
Younger Nofei Prat
- Year: 2006 (the young core of the association)
- Residents: ~250 families and growing
- Homes: 2.8-5 million ₪, plots for construction: 800K-1.5M
- Advantage: Active expansion project, possibility for self-construction, young religious-national community
- Disadvantage: Ongoing construction throughout the community (noise), demanding absorption process
Alon
- Year: 1990
- Residents: ~500
- Homes: 2.0-4.5 million ₪
- Advantage: The cheapest option among the three, strong community
- Disadvantage: Further from Road 1, few internal institutions

Absorption Process in Kfar Adumim Association
- Initial meeting with the absorption committee
- Family interview + recommendations
- Hosting day on Shabbat
- General assembly — voting
- Signing the membership agreement with the association
The process takes an average of 3-6 months. Important — purchasing a home in a cooperative association requires approval from the assembly, not just a private transaction.
