What the monthly bill is made of
Rent itself is quoted on all 5 portals in the sample. The extras below are not — each line shows how many portals publish it.
| Item | Median | Ads | Portals |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rent | R$ 3,660 (≈ US$ 710) | 19,755 ads | 5 |
| Condomínio | R$ 800 (≈ US$ 155) | 9,895 ads | 4 |
| IPTU (property tax) | R$ 200 (≈ US$ 39) | 7,648 ads | 3 |
| Condomínio + IPTU, quoted together | R$ 746 (≈ US$ 145) | 508 ads | 1 |
For the middle ad among those that publish both, the condomínio is about 18% of rent plus condomínio — half sit below that share, half above.

How these figures were measured
The prices on this page are recomputed every night from the ads that are live: this reading comes from 19,755 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.
