For buyers

The 4 steps of buying land in the Valley.

In the order a purchase happens: from "does this make sense for me?" to closing and registration. Use it as a map, even if you have not decided anything yet.

Step 1

Understand

Does land in the São Francisco Valley make sense for me?

What you do

  • Define your goal: production, investment, living there or generating income
  • Get to know the regions: Petrolina (PE), Juazeiro (BA) and Sobradinho Lake
  • Understand the role of water: river, well, public irrigation district and water-use permit
  • If you are a foreigner, learn the limits in Law 5,709/1971

What I do

  • I answer questions through the AI assistant, any time
  • I offer the free guide, with the 11 points to check before signing (PDF in Portuguese)
Step 2

Organize

How much, how, and how soon?

What you do

  • Define budget, payment method (cash, partly financed or trade) and timeline
  • Define whether you will decide alone or with partners
  • Fill in the buyer questionnaire

What I do

  • I review your profile and, if it makes sense, contact you for a second conversation, online
  • I talk with you online, free of charge, and answer your questions. If you want to go ahead, the starting deposit comes next and, only then, the in-person visit
  • I agree in writing on the commission and the brokerage agreement, before any visit
Step 3

Verify

Is the property what it seems to be?

What you do

  • Visit the property when the time comes: the in-person visit comes after the online conversation and the starting deposit, with you already in the region. You get to know land by standing on it
  • Bring the questions the report raises

What I do

  • I shortlist properties that match your profile
  • I check the title registration, CAR, georeferencing and SIGEF, ITR and CCIR, Legal Reserve and APP, the forced-labor list, IBAMA embargoes, mining rights (ANM), water and permits, and satellite imagery in wet and dry seasons
  • I state clearly what was checked and what was not
  • I go with you on the visit
Step 4

Close and register

How do I close safely?

What you do

  • Sign only after reading the contract and knowing what was checked

What I do

  • I negotiate in writing
  • I prepare the confidentiality agreement and the purchase agreement
  • I follow the closing, the deed and the registration
  • I follow any pending regularization, together with the sale

No step guarantees appreciation or any business result. Every property has its own situation, and I tell you what I found.
