Default Living Conditions

I am very interested in moving to Brazil. Is there anything I need to know before moving there? I am just an ambitious male who is seeking adventure and culture. I probably will look to live there for one year at least. Any advice or thoughts would be most helpful. Thank you.

If you plan to buy a property in Brazil there are some things you need to know:

1. Overseas buyers can purchase any Brazilian residential or commercial property without much restrictions but there are a few limitations or fees applicable for some specific areas such as marine land, islands (wow!), rural land or areas near Brazil's international borders.
2. Beofre you can buy a property in Brazil you do need a Brazilian ID called a CPF.. You will need your birth certificate translated into Portuguese by a certified translator and legalized by the Brazilian Consulate in your home country to get a CPF. There's a fee you have to pay but I'm not sure the cost at the moment.
3. Land registration in Brazil is well developed and safe. If you decide to use an agent no need to worry since real estate registration in Brazil is carried out by private notary publics.
4. All property is registered at one single registry and they record details of the entire commercial history and the physical identification of each property registered. Of course, it is important to check if the property you are buying has a clear title.


Hope this helps!

About CPF (Cadastro de Pessoa Física) The CPF is a number mandatory for all brazilian people, it will allow you to have a account in a bank, ask for a loan, to have a credit card, and many things more, with this number they are able to know all your financial situation, how was ur registred earnings, like that the government will know how much you need to pay in Impost. Also if you don´t pay something with this number if you try to buy with credit in a store for exemple, they will know that you have some debits and you couldn´t buy.

How to have a CPF - A CPF is a document wich anyone can have. Brazilian and not brazilian.
You can ask for one even in your country, at brazilians consulates. They will make it in Brazil and send to you.
If you are already in Brazil, it is just to go at Correios (Brazilian Post Office) you just need to bring your passport and something to prove your address (a telefone bill for exemple). If you are not Brazilian, you´ll need to have a meeting at Receita Federal it will take less than 10 minuts, it is just for really check your documents, and they´ll give you your number, after some day you receive your card at your home.
The fee is R$ 5,00 (US$2,00), to be payed in the post office.


About the Real State in Brazil: Take really care when you try to buy a propriety, the best is to find a good agency for help with all the pappers, to avoid to buy something that someone else already own, it happens a lot. all the proprieties has a register, but some people are able to make a false register and you just will discover after to pay.
Try to have information about people that you´ll work. The best is to search in the CRECI, they are able to indicate a good registred real state.

Hope it helps!
