I. Kochav & Sons Construction

I. Kochav is the leading company for the development and construction of luxury residential projects in Northern Israel in general, and in the city of Nahariya in particular. The family-owned company was founded approximately 40 years ago by Mr. Itzhak Kochav and is currently managed by the second generation, Danny and Ronen Kochav, who continue the tradition of quality, planning, and execution.

From its inception, the Kochav family brought with it valuable business and service expertise accumulated through extensive activity in the hospitality and hotel sectors in both the United States and Israel. This unique experience gave rise to uncompromising standards of aesthetics, quality, and service, which continue to form the company’s managerial DNA to this day.

The Excellence Behind the Brand

I. Kochav has always focused on creating exceptional luxury residences that have become its trademark and is guided by three key principles that accompany every project and development:
• Elite Architecture: The company collaborates with some of Israel’s leading architects, including Ilan Pivko, Feigin Architects, and Moshe Tzur, and is committed to meticulous planning, striking aesthetics, and perfection in every detail.
• End-to-End Responsibility (One Stop Shop): The company manages the entire process under one roof, from land acquisition through statutory planning and marketing to actual construction and key handover. Construction is carried out through subsidiary companies with extensive experience and the highest contractor classification (G5, unlimited).
• Superbrand-Level Service: Clients benefit from personal, warm, and family-oriented support, alongside long-term responsibility and commitment extending many years beyond occupancy.
In the past, the company initiated and developed prominent projects throughout Northern Israel, including Haifa, the Krayot, and Ramat Yishai. Today, thanks to the strength of its brand and its unparalleled reputation, it has focused its activities exclusively on the city of Nahariya.
The company is currently building in Nahariya’s most sought-after prime locations, primarily along the western beachfront, which is considered the city’s most prestigious and desirable area. It is presently advancing projects comprising close to 3,000 residential units at various planning and construction stages.
Alongside residential developments, I. Kochav also specializes in the construction of office buildings, hospitality properties, and commercial centers.
The company’s longstanding reputation and extensive experience have paved the way for strategic partnerships with major construction companies, including a joint venture with Africa Israel for the development of two large-scale projects in the city.

Raising the Bar in Urban Renewal

I. Kochav brings the same construction quality, reliability, and personal support that define its brand into the field of urban renewal, which has gained significant momentum in Israel in recent years.
The company’s Urban Renewal Department implements rich and luxurious technical specifications, providing complete peace of mind and fast, professional responses to the needs of both existing and future residents. The company holds a unique and exceptional historical track record in the field, having successfully executed and delivered Israel’s first urban renewal evacuation-and-reconstruction project at 17-19 S.Y. Agnon Street in Nahariya.

Today, supported by its financial strength and extensive proven experience, the company focuses on promoting and planning large-scale urban renewal projects and is simultaneously managing more than 3,000 planned residential units across several major complexes in the heart of Nahariya, integrating modern residential living with innovative commercial spaces.
