SANDI RYKER
Partner | Real Estate Consultant | Property Manager
In Zichron Yaakov and beyond, Sandi's name is synonymous with real estate. A native of New Jersey, graduate of Frisch High School and Stern College, Sandi first took up residence in Sydney, Australia, and moved with her family to Jerusalem in 1998, where she began her real estate career working for a large agency. In 2005 she brought her big city experience to Zichron, working for a local agency before setting up her own shop.
As a long-time resident of Zichron, Sandi is intimately familiar with all the secret nooks and crannies and hidden gems in the area. You would be hard-pressed to find another agent who takes as much pride and joy in their profession. With children of school age and older, she has her finger on the pulse of the town's numerous communities and circles. Her warm and pleasant demeanor put all clients at ease as they go through the process of buying or selling a home.
If you’re looking for Sandi during off hours, you will likely find her at the beach, hiking, camping, or relaxing with a glass (bottle!) of wine.
ILANA GARBER
Partner | Real Estate Consultant
Ilana grew up in New Jersey but after spending time in Israel, New York, Amsterdam, New Jersey, and finally Israel again, she is truly a citizen of the world! Her path to real estate went through some twists and turns, starting with Frisch High School, Stern College, Bar-Ilan University, and Hebrew University, topping all that with a master’s from the Wurzweiler School of Social Work!
When Ilana and her husband, 4 kids, and their dog, moved to Israel in 2009, they chose to make Zichron Yaakov their home, and who better to help her find her first house than… her childhood friend Sandi! She went on to obtain her real estate license in 2015 and – naturally – teamed up with Sandi at My Israel Property. Ilana enjoys swimming in the Mediterranean, practicing yoga, and religiously walks her dogs, so she knows the lay of the land like the back of her hand.
Ilana lives, breathes, and sleeps real estate. But more importantly, she lives and breathes in the community. She will always keep YOUR best interest at heart as she leaves no stone unturned to find you the perfect home, buyer, accommodation, rental, etc. But buyer beware, when you work with Ilana, you may find yourself not only a home, but also a friend for life!
TSIONA (MANN) DAVID

Tsiona Mann David, is originally from West Hempstead, NY, and moved to Israel as a young girl with her family.

Real estate is not her only passion though as she is quite a talented pastry chef too! If you are fortunate enough to use her as an agent, you might get some wickedly delicious chocolate chip cookies at a closing.
When she is not showing homes, she keeps busy running after her three small children. Hard working energetic moms are just another part of what makes My Israel Property special!
ANAT DABAH
Real Estate Consultant
Even though she grew up in Rockville Maryland you might say Israel was always on Anat’s mind, as her father was Israeli. You could say she's also had real estate on her mind from a young age, since her dad had a contracting business which was focused on fixing up investment properties!
In what could be considered irony or fate, her foray into professional real estate started when she rented a home in Zichron through My Israel Property’s co-owner, Ilana Garber. She was so taken by the detail oriented process and just the idea of helping people find the right home she signed up to get her real estate license! Working at My Israel Property was a natural fit as its values and culture were just what she was looking for from a workplace in Israel. Because she lives in the heart of the community she serves, Anat is intimately familiar with so many of the issues people address when looking for a home, ranging from school options, health clinics, shopping centers, parks, and the best places to buy fresh groceries!
When she's not showing homes, she's busy taking care of her two adorable kids (and her husband!). Anat is a self-described "foodie" and likes to cook and consume healthy foods with healing properties. She fits right at home in Zichron as she and her husband love spending time outdoors with their feet on the ground in nature and Zichron offers ample opportunities to do just that!
LIAT EVGI
Bookkeeper
Liat seems to love “touristy” towns and all that they hold. Not surprising, as she was born and raised right here in Zichron Yaakov and took a brief stint in Eilat before returning to her beloved home town.
As a native of Zichron, she shares with the team her unique perspective on the town. Liat is My Israel Property’s dedicated bookkeeper, tasked with making sure all the numbers add up. She has two kids, a bunch of pets, and enjoys walking the nature trails in the forest surrounding Zichron.
