- Infrastructure - electricity, water, sewage, internet - do they all reach the plot? Or do they need to be brought from afar?
- Access - direct road to the plot, or just a dirt path?
- Direction - South/Southwest = sun, beautiful sunset
- View - of the Kinneret? Of the Gilboa? Of the surrounding farms?
- Type of Land - stable for building? Rocky? Soil?
- RMI (Israel Land Authority) - is it private land or is there a lease agreement?
