Frequently asked questions

Which studio launches are expected in Rio's South Zone by December 2026?

Ten developments: Virá Copa, MO.dO Copacabana, TGB Copa and Felipe de Oliveira in Copacabana; Be in Rio Nascimento Silva 45, Be in Rio Paul Redfern 41, Be in Rio Redentor 14, MO.dO Ipanema and SIG Belmonte in Ipanema; and João de Barros 18 in Leblon.

What is the priority list?

A free sign-up with no purchase commitment. People on the list receive the price table, floor plans and terms as soon as the developer releases them, before public announcement.

Have prices been released?

Not yet, in most cases. Developers release the price table when sales open. As soon as we have it, we send it to everyone on the list.

Can these studios be used for Airbnb?

Many were designed for living and renting, including short-term rentals, but the rule depends on each building's bylaws. We check case by case before purchase. See also our guide to Airbnb law in Rio.

Can launch dates change?

Yes. They are developer estimates and can be moved earlier or later. The priority list is notified as soon as the date is confirmed.
