Multifamily projects gain traction in Brazil

According to the news, multifamily projects in Brazil are gaining scale after years of

tests, with large investors and operators such as Brookfield, Kinea and Greystar

expanding operation, even amid high interest rates. Based on a CBRE survey, the

inventory of residential rental projects for short and long stay could reach 20.6k

units by 2028, up +67.0% vs. the 12.3k units in operation in 2H25, while it could

reach 16.1k units in 2026, up +30.5%. This may be related to the pressure faced by

the mid-income segment from interest rates, moving demand toward rentals.

Additionally, CBRE simulations with mid-income apartments in SP show that a

mortgage installment can exceed the equivalent rent by more than R$1.0k per

month.
