PREPARATION & SELECTION
Your Property Buying Journey
Step 1: Obtain a CPF Number
A CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas) is a Brazilian taxpayer identification number, similar to a Social Security Number in the United States. This number is required for foreign nationals purchasing property in Brazil and can typically be obtained through your nearest Brazilian Consulate.
Step 2: Schedule a Consultation
We begin with a personalized consultation to understand your goals and preferences. Before the meeting, we encourage you to share information such as:
-
Your budget
-
Preferred location
-
Property type (apartment, studio, condominium, investment property, etc.)
-
Whether you prefer a turnkey property or customized furnishings
-
Intended use (vacation home, retirement, rental income, or relocation)
Step 3: Explore and Evaluate Your Options
Our team will present carefully selected properties that meet your criteria. We assist with researching every aspect of the purchase, including property details, location, amenities, legal
considerations, and investment potential.
Many clients choose to visit Brazil to tour properties in person, and we can help coordinate local support during your visit.
Step 4: Secure Your Dream Property
Once you have selected the right property, we guide you through the purchase process. This includes contract review, legal documentation, due diligence, and coordination with our trusted local partners to ensure a smooth and secure transaction.
Step 5: Enjoy Your New Brazilian Property
After closing, you’ll be ready to enjoy your new home or investment. Whether you’re purchasing a beachfront condo, retirement residence, vacation property, or income-producing property, our team remains available to assist you even after the transaction is complete.
