JPI International Advisory provides discreet, premium assistance for diplomats, international civil servants, NGO staff, corporate expats and their families relocating to Brazil – with a special focus on Brasília and Goiás.
We offer independent, structured guidance on housing, contracts, neighbourhoods and daily life so that international professionals can relocate with clarity, safety and confidence.
JPI International Advisory is a boutique destination and housing advisory dedicated to diplomats, international civil servants, NGO staff, corporate expats and their families relocating to Brazil.
Our work combines deep, long-term familiarity with Brasília and Goiás with a clear, structured and discreet advisory process. We help international professionals make safe, informed decisions about housing, neighbourhoods and daily life, in full alignment with their organisation’s policies and expectations.
JPI operates as an independent advisory, focused solely on the interests of the international professional and their family. Our role is to translate the local context – contracts, neighbourhoods, practices and routines – into clear and actionable guidance that supports safe decisions and smooth integration.
We work in close coordination with diplomatic missions, international organisations, NGOs and corporate global mobility teams whenever required, respecting internal policies, security expectations and confidentiality standards.
JPI’s work is organised into five integrated advisory packages that cover the full relocation and housing decision cycle. Each package can be delivered at different levels of depth, from remote strategic guidance to enhanced, hands-on support.
Client-side housing advisory to help you identify safe, suitable and well-located homes aligned with your assignment, family profile and budget – before and after arrival. This includes definition of your residential profile, recommended neighbourhoods and a curated shortlist of properties.
Available from remote advisory with curated options to enhanced housing support with extended analysis and guidance during the selection phase.
Clear, bilingual orientation on Brazilian residential lease agreements, focused on practical risks and obligations. We review the contract, identify key risk points, explain guarantees and typical clauses, and provide concrete recommendations to support your decision and negotiations.
Available from structured contract review with executive summary to enhanced guidance with tailored suggestions for renegotiation and support during discussions with agencies or landlords.
Strategic guidance on where to live in Brasília and Goiás, based on safety, mobility, access to work, schools and services, and your preferred lifestyle. We provide a structured overview of key areas and how they fit different profiles, including families, diplomats and international staff.
Available from a general neighbourhood and lifestyle guide to personalised mapping aligned with your daily routines and family needs.
Practical support around your arrival and first days in Brazil, helping you organise essential tasks and adapt safely and efficiently. This includes step-by-step orientation, checklists and guidance on utilities, services and day-to-day organisation after arrival.
Available from structured information and checklists to short-term human support during the initial settling-in period, with dedicated follow-up.
Our most complete solution, designed for diplomats, senior executives and organisations that require an integrated, end-to-end relocation experience. JPI Gold combines Expat Housing Advisory, Contract & Legal Orientation, Neighbourhood & Lifestyle Guidance and Relocation Support in a single, coordinated package.
It offers enhanced depth in each area, priority access and extended advisory in line with the expectations of diplomatic missions, international organisations and executives with high-responsibility assignments.
A detailed description of each package – including available levels and fee structure – is provided on request or through our service packages & fees documentation.
Brasília is Brazil’s diplomatic capital: a city of embassies, international organisations, schools, green areas and a growing international community. At the same time, understanding how the local housing market, contracts and neighbourhoods really work can be challenging for newcomers.
Beyond the capital, the state of Goiás offers a unique combination of history and nature that becomes part of many expats’ lifestyle: the colonial streets and festivals of Pirenópolis, historic towns and churches, and the national parks and waterfalls of Chapada dos Veadeiros – including Alto Paraíso, São Jorge and Cavalcante – with countless weekend destinations within driving distance from Brasília.
JPI’s advisory is grounded in more than 45 years of real-world familiarity with Brasília and its surroundings – neighbourhoods, institutions, schools, roads and natural areas. This allows us to translate the local context into clear, risk-aware guidance for international professionals and their families.
Our advisory process is designed to be clear, discreet and aligned with the internal procedures of diplomatic missions, international organisations and companies.
