What do I need to know when buying property in Rio de Janeiro?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats what advice they would give a foreigner before buying a property in Rio de Janeiro, they said...

"When buying property in Rio de Janeiro, it is important to research the local market and understand the legal requirements for purchasing property. It is also important to be aware of the local taxes and fees associated with buying property, as well as any restrictions on foreign ownership. It is also important to be aware of the local infrastructure and services available in the area, such as public transportation, schools, and hospitals. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local crime rate and safety concerns. Finally, it is important to work with a reputable real estate agent or lawyer to ensure that the purchase process is completed correctly and legally," commented one expat who made the move to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
