Full Transparency
Commission rates, property conditions, neighbourhood risks, and legal status are shared in writing before you invest time in a viewing. Surprises at the notary table are not acceptable to us.
About Hikingwindowm
Local Knowledge Is Not a Marketing Claim — It Is the Work
Hikingwindowm was built by people who chose Florianópolis long before it became a headline destination, and who know the island's property market from the ground up.
Meet the TeamWhat Hikingwindowm Does, in Plain Language
Hikingwindowm is a real estate agency based in central Florianópolis, operating across the Santa Catarina island and its immediate mainland neighbourhoods. We handle residential property sales, long-term rentals, formal market valuations, and investment consulting for individuals and families who are either relocating to Florianópolis or seeking to place capital in its coastal property market. We are not a large franchise with hundreds of listed agents — we are a focused team of twelve specialists, each assigned to a defined geographic cluster of the island. This structure means the advisor who answers your first enquiry is also the person who accompanies you on every viewing, negotiates on your behalf, and coordinates the legal and notarial steps that conclude the transaction. We serve clients who have moved from other Brazilian states, international buyers primarily from Portugal, Italy, and the United States, and local residents upgrading, downsizing, or repositioning a property portfolio. Our work is conducted entirely within the greater Florianópolis metropolitan area; we do not operate in other cities and make no claim of national coverage.
How We Work, and What We Will Not Promise
Since opening in 2015, our team has closed more than 320 sales and rental transactions and produced over 180 independent market-valuation reports. We work by direct mandate — every seller or landlord who lists with us signs a service agreement that defines timelines, commission structure, and marketing approach before any viewing is arranged. On the buyer and renter side, we do not charge finder fees; our income comes entirely from the vendor or landlord commission, which we disclose at the start of any conversation. We are a team that values the azure-trust of clear ocean-view properties rendered truthfully — our photographs are not virtually staged and our written property descriptions do not omit known defects. Where there is a flood-zone designation, a pending condominium dispute, or an irregular building element that needs to be regularised, we say so in writing before the first viewing. What we cannot guarantee is market timing, future capital appreciation, or the speed of São Paulo's bureaucratic processes when a buyer's financing is arranged through a federal institution. The Florianópolis market has performed strongly since 2020, but property is a medium-to-long-term asset and we advise our clients accordingly. If you need a promise of quick returns, we are probably not the right agency for you.
The Values That Shape Each Transaction
Three commitments that define how Hikingwindowm operates with every client, every time.
One Advisor, One File
You deal with a single named advisor from first contact to key handover. No passing your file between departments, no repeating your requirements to a different person every time you call.
Document-First Process
We review the property's registry extract, IPTU history, and any condominium minutes before marketing begins. Incomplete documentation stops the listing, not the sale process midway through.
“What set Hikingwindowm apart was the property report they sent before we even booked flights from Lisbon. It covered the building's legal status, the condominium fees for the past three years, and a comparable sales table for the street. We arrived knowing exactly what we were buying.”
