In outline: we agree your brief and shortlist matched listings; you (or we, on your behalf) view the properties; we make and negotiate an offer; both sides sign a purchase agreement once due-diligence and title checks are clear; funds are transferred through registered banking channels; and the deed is signed before a notary (cartório) and registered at the Real Estate Registry. Our English-speaking, CRECI-registered team coordinates each stage with you and your lawyer.

The main one-off cost is the municipal property-transfer tax (ITBI), paid to the city where the property sits, plus notary (cartório) and Real Estate Registry fees to formalise and register the deed. Lawyer or advisory fees may also apply. Rates and bases are set by each municipality and can change, so we provide a written, itemised estimate for your specific property and city before you commit — no surprises at closing.

Yes. Many of our foreign buyers complete a purchase without being physically present. A Power of Attorney (procuração) lets a trusted representative — often your lawyer — sign on your behalf; if granted abroad it is notarised and apostilled, then sworn-translated for use in Brazil. We arrange remote viewings, share full documentation, and coordinate the signing and registration end to end.

CRECI is the official regional council that licenses real estate professionals in Brazil. Working with a CRECI-registered agent means your representative is legally accredited and accountable, which protects you on contracts, disclosures and the handling of funds. Our team is CRECI-SC registered and English-speaking, and we coordinate the legal, banking and registration steps so the purchase is compliant from offer to deed.
