What the monthly bill is made of
Rent itself is quoted on all 4 portals in the sample. The extras below are not — each line shows how many portals publish it.
| Item | Median | Ads | Portals |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rent | R$ 4,000 (≈ US$ 776) | 18,739 ads | 4 |
| Condomínio | R$ 661 (≈ US$ 128) | 2,807 ads | 4 |
| IPTU (property tax) | R$ 178 (≈ US$ 35) | 2,063 ads | 3 |
For the middle ad among those that publish both, the condomínio is about 17% of rent plus condomínio — half sit below that share, half above.
What to know about Recife
- Recife sits on a river plain of islands, peninsulas, wetlands and mangroves stitched together by bridges, which is why it is nicknamed the Venice of Brazil.
- Boa Viagem is the Atlantic beachfront district, densely built with residential towers and lined with shops, restaurants and hotels along its seafront avenue.
- Porto Digital, an open urban technology park, occupies restored buildings in the historic Bairro do Recife and spreads into Santo Antônio, São José and Santo Amaro.
How these figures were measured
The prices on this page are recomputed every night from the ads that are live: this reading comes from 18,739 rental ads active on Sep 17, 2026.
Every figure is the advertised rent on its own. The condomínio charge for the building and the IPTU property tax are counted separately and are never folded into these numbers.
Dollar figures on this page are a conversion, not a second measurement: they use one frozen rate, 5.1527 reais to the dollar, from the Banco Central do Brasil PTAX reading for Sep 16, 2026.
