When do you need this document?
You need this contract whenever you are buying or selling an apartment in Brazil. It's required for any residential unit transaction, whether it's a new construction, resale property, or inherited apartment. The contract is essential for properties sold by individuals, real estate companies, or construction companies. You must use this document to formalize the agreement before proceeding to property registration at the Real Estate Registry Office. It's also necessary when the sale involves financing, as banks and financial institutions require a valid purchase agreement to approve mortgage loans.
Key legal considerations
Your contract must include complete identification of both parties with full legal details including nationality, marital status, profession, and tax identification numbers. The property description must be detailed and match the official registry records, including exact area measurements, registry number, and legal characteristics. Payment terms must be clearly specified, including total price, payment schedule, and consequences of default. You should include clauses covering property transfer conditions, possession delivery date, and liability for existing debts or encumbrances. The contract must address Consumer Protection Code requirements if applicable, ensuring buyer rights are protected. Include provisions for property inspection, defect warranties, and dispute resolution mechanisms to avoid future conflicts.
Legal requirements in Brasil
Under Brazilian law, your apartment sale contract must comply with the Civil Code (Lei nº 10.406/2002) which governs general contract obligations and real property rights. The Consumer Protection Code (Lei nº 8.078/1990) applies when the seller is a company, providing additional buyer protections and warranty requirements. Your contract must meet Public Records Law (Lei nº 6.015/1973) standards to enable proper property registration and ownership transfer. For condominium apartments, you must comply with Law 4.591/1964 regarding building condominiums and real estate developments. The document requires notarization and must be registered at the competent Real Estate Registry Office to complete the property transfer. You must pay applicable taxes including ITBI (property transfer tax) before registration. All parties must provide updated documentation and proof of legal capacity to enter the contract.
