Hi,

I am considering a job offer in Sao Paulo. I am looking for apartments. I have been checking some options on internet, but I am not sure what exactly I will have to pay every month. I have found that aluguel is divided in price + condominio + IPTU. If an apartment says that price is R1,800, condominio R800 and IPTU R150, will I have to consider IPTU into my monthly payments or is it paid per year?

Thanks and Regards,
Xavier

You can pay monthly (from February till November) or total value once a year

IPTU and condominium is paid per month. IPTU (urban tax) is usually low ~100R$, but condominium (building maintenance fee) can cost between few hundred and few thousand per month.

If you are looking for 12 months rentals (www.vivareal.com.br recommended) price usually not including IPTU and condominium.

If you are looking for 1 month rentals (www.monthly.com.br recommended) price usually include IPTU and condominium.

In each case electricity is not included.
