Brazil - Renting Property


Page: 1/2


It is fairly easy to find property to rent in Brazil, and depending on your choice of location there is often a wide choice available. These include for example modern apartments and condominiums with a wide range of on-site amenities, town houses with gardens and swimming pools, and traditional fazendas, or country houses. In general, newer properties are of a good standard of construction and decor.

Since many expatriates living in Brazil are retirees, they tend to favour the coastal resorts such as example Fortaleza, the prosperous state capital of Ceara in the northeast of Brazil. On the coast, it is easy to find cheap short-term rentals, since many Europeans have bought holiday homes here which they let out for ten or eleven months of the year. For this reason, short-term rentals of three to six months are often cheaper than longer-term rentals. Lower rentals can be found in smaller towns or villages rather than the larger coastal towns.

For those who wish to live in the city, typical rental rates for an apartment in Sao Paulo are between R$700 and R$2,000, depending on the number of bedrooms. Here, most expatriates live in the zona sul, or southern part of the city, where there are many luxury apartments in close proximity to the shops, restaurants and galleries. In Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro most expatriates live in "closed condominiums", or gated communities that have 24-hour security. There are also some smaller towns outside the cities which are popular with expatriates, such as Alphaville and Tambore, around 20km outside Sao Paulo, where rental prices are lower but there is a long commute for those who work in the city.
