If you are thinking about moving to Brazil, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...
"If moving to Sao Paulo know that prices are out of control and that there are lots of hidden costs to renting. I am from Chicago, where I lived in Lincoln Park. 1. Rent, a 2 bedroom apt in Jardins(200 sq meters) will run about BRL 8000/mo. 2. The Next biggest cost is the Condo fee which everyone must pay, about BRL 2000/mo. 3. Next there is the IPTU or the property tax in Jardins expect to pay BRL 600/mo. 4. Then of course you need insurance, expect to pay BRL 250/mo," said another expat in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
"Housing costs are expensive, I don't know much about it though, but cheaper than London," wrote a member who made the move to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
