The apartment and monthly rent are set, but several lease details still need to be agreed with the right tenant. This is a 155 m², 5-bed serviced apartment in Rio de Janeiro offered at R$31,930 per month for a long-term let.

Please include your intended move-in date and household details when enquiring. I can then discuss the deposit, lease length, pet terms, furnishings, included services and charges paid separately. Questions about transport, running costs and the process for reporting maintenance issues are also welcome.
 
What does “serviced” cover at this monthly price? It would help to separate anything included in the R$31,930 from electricity, water, internet, cleaning or other charges billed to the tenant. Also, what lease length would you regard as long term?
 
The neighbourhood or nearest transport reference is essential before anyone can judge the rent or commute. I’d also want to know whether all five bedrooms are furnished as bedrooms, and whether a floor plan is available—the total is 155 m², but the room arrangement matters for a larger household.
 
One more practical point: are pets considered, and does the furnishing have to remain for the full lease? Those terms can determine whether the apartment works for a long stay even before the deposit is discussed.
 
I agree the missing details matter, although I wouldn’t expect every utility to be included simply because it is called serviced. The landlord should define the service package clearly. It would also be useful to explain how variable utilities are measured and billed, rather than giving only a combined estimate.
 
For a long-term tenant, maintenance arrangements are as important as cleaning. Who handles problems with appliances, plumbing or air conditioning, and how are requests reported? No need to promise a fixed response time here, but the lease should distinguish owner-managed repairs from issues the tenant must arrange.
 
I’d ask for the deposit and move-in timing together. If the amount changes with lease length or other terms, prospective tenants need a written breakdown before committing. Is there a minimum notice period between agreement and handover, particularly if the apartment needs furnishing changes?
 
At R$31,930 per month, serious enquiries will probably need a concise term sheet before sharing a move date: neighbourhood, minimum lease, deposit, furnishings, pet terms, included services, utility billing and maintenance contact. The current post gives the size and headline rent, but not enough yet to compare the full monthly cost or suitability.
