2. Top 3 Real Estate Agencies in Brazil

a. Índice Imóveis Ltda

b. CHIMENTO DESENVOLVIMENTO IMOBILIARIO LTDA

⚠️ Tips for working with agents:

3. Other Ways to Find Rentals

Facebook Rental Groups
Besides rental websites, Brazil has many Facebook rental groups where landlords post directly. You can often skip agents and negotiate directly.

Recommended Groups (São Paulo):

Aluguel de Kitnets / Aptos / Casas / Studios / Quartos - São Paulo — All property types
Casa para alugar Direto com o Proprietário em São Paulo — Direct from landlords, no agents
Aluguel de Quartos - São Paulo — Rooms and shared housing
ALUGUE E COMPRE SP – CASAS, APTOS, STUDIOS E KITNETS PERTO DO METRÔ — Near metro stations
Aluguel Zona Sul SP — São Paulo South Zone
ALUGUEL DE QUARTOS, VAGAS DIVIDIR APTO ETC - SP CAPITAL — Room shares and roommates

Search keywords to try:

"Aluguel + city name" (e.g., Aluguel São Paulo)
"Apartamento para alugar + city name"
"Imóveis + city name"

⚠️ Facebook group warnings:

Scams are common — be wary of requests for upfront payment or refusing viewings
No formal contracts — make sure to sign a proper lease
Information is scattered — comparing prices is difficult
