Wanted: 4-bedroom new-build flat in São Paulo up to R$5,040,000

I’m looking for a new-build flat in São Paulo with four bedrooms and roughly 150 m². My ceiling is R$5,040,000. It should be habitable, though I’m comfortable making gradual improvements rather than paying extra for perfect finishes.

Quiet-market opportunities are welcome. Owners or authorised representatives can send a short initial summary covering the floor-area basis, current condition, ownership or tenure, asking-price rationale, recurring local charges and their authority to offer the property. I’ll only proceed where the ownership documents, costs and price can be verified.
 
Does the roughly 150 m² refer to private internal area, or would you consider a listing that reaches that figure only by including other space? It would also help to know whether you have preferred parts of São Paulo. Those two details could eliminate a lot of unsuitable introductions.
 
There is a slight tension between “new-build” and “room for gradual improvement.” Do you mean a recently completed but plainly finished unit, or would a recent resale also qualify? I’d also specify that all four bedrooms must be existing, usable rooms rather than a proposed reconfiguration.
 
A short first message could be kept consistent: location, completion status, four-bedroom layout, stated area and how it is measured, asking price, condition, occupancy, recurring charges, ownership basis, and whether the sender is the owner or a representative. Photos and sensitive documents can follow after the basic fit is established.
 
I agree with using stages rather than expecting full documentation in the first approach. A representative may reasonably avoid circulating sensitive material widely, but should still identify whose authority they have and be prepared to substantiate it before viewings or negotiations go far.

Maria’s question matters too: would an unsold unit in a completed development count, or are you specifically seeking a first-owner resale that has already been occupied?
 
Using the seller’s price story as an early filter risks giving a polished explanation more weight than the flat itself. An off-market label does not make the figure reliable, and a convincing narrative is not a comparable sale.

I would first confirm that the unit is genuinely around 150 m², has the required layout, is in the stated condition and carries acceptable recurring charges. Once those points match the brief, the seller can explain the price and Sam can test that explanation against closely comparable flats.
 
That is fair, Lucia, but even a basic rationale is useful. “Priced for the floor, outlook and condition” gives the buyer something to verify; “private opportunity, therefore premium” does not. Sam could ask for the rationale without treating it as evidence.

One more missing point: are parking or storage requirements essential, optional, or irrelevant? They may affect whether two otherwise similar 150 m² flats are actually comparable.
 
Before arranging a visit, I would request a single written cost picture: R$5,040,000 maximum purchase price, any expected work needed to make the unit satisfactory, and the disclosed recurring local charges. Keep ownership verification and representative authority as separate questions—evidence that a flat exists and fits the brief does not establish that the person offering it can negotiate it. The precise document review should be handled locally once a serious candidate emerges.
