If you plan to buy property in 里约热内卢, Oabitat manages the process end-to-end, from CPF registration to final property registration. Whether you’re looking for a vacation apartment or a long-term investment, our expert team assists foreigners in every step of buying real estate in Rio de Janeiro.
首先,要在里约购买房产,您需要一个 CPF(Cadastro de Pessoa Física)--巴西的纳税人编号。您可以通过巴西政府网站轻松在线获取。所有房产交易都需要该文件,它允许您合法登记所有权。
Beyond the purchase price, buyers should budget for closing costs, which typically total is around 5% of the property value. This includes the ITBI (municipal property transfer tax), notary fees, and registry fees. If you plan to rent out the property afterward, note that non-resident owners are subject to a 15% withholding tax on rental income, collected at source through a local administrator. Oabitat provides an estimated cost breakdown for every property before you commit, so there are no surprises at closing.
在里约热内卢购买房产的步骤
一旦我们找到您梦想中的房产,且卖方接受了您的报价,请按照以下步骤操作:
签署初步协议并支付 10% 首付款。
公证人向卖方收集文件,确认房产没有债务。
一切核实无误后,签署最终契约并完成付款。
最后,以您的名义进行财产登记大约需要一个月的时间。
请注意,在巴西,付款和签字是同时进行的,因此请确保您在最后一次会议之前准备好资金。
Moreover, a common mistake among foreign buyers is assuming a signed contract means the property is theirs. Under Brazilian law, ownership only becomes legally valid once the transfer is registered at the Cartório de Registro de Imóveis (Real Estate Registry Office), not at the moment of signing. This registration typically takes about one month after the final deed, which is why Oabitat tracks this step personally with each client rather than considering the deal closed at signature.
