What we do for those looking for a space, and for those who already own the asset.
Wharbz is a São Paulo real estate advisory firm that finds, compares and negotiates office floors, single-tenant buildings and street-front commercial property for companies, and represents property owners when they lease.
Each kind of space calls for a different reading.
- Office space For operations that want a corporate setting in a shared building, with room to grow. See office space
- Single-tenant buildings For companies that need full control: access, identity and a building adapted to the operation. See single-tenant buildings
- Street retail For brands that depend on a storefront, foot traffic and the right customers at the door. See street retail
- Setting up in São Paulo For companies coming from another state or another country that need to decide without knowing the city. See how it works

What happens after the first contact
-
A conversation to understand the moment
Before any property, we understand the operation: team, growth plans, timelines, budget and what the address needs to communicate. This applies to those looking for a space and to those who own the asset.
-
A proposed path, not a list
For those searching, a short, annotated selection, with what each option solves and what it demands. For the owner, the positioning of the property and the occupier profile that makes sense for it.
-
Guidance through the signature, and beyond
Visits, negotiation and contract handled by the same person. After the signature, we stay close through the move-in, the adjustments and the renewals.
What you take to your board
A decision about an address crosses several desks. Every stage ends with material you can take to all of them.
Operation briefing
Team, growth, timing, budget and what the address needs to say, on one page.
Annotated shortlist
A few options, with what each one solves and what it requires.
Total occupancy cost
Rent, building charges, IPTU property tax, fit-out and rent-free period, side by side, over the whole lease.
Team commute
What changes for the people, with metro lines and access.
Negotiated terms
Term, rent adjustment, guarantee, renewal and rent-free period, compared with the initial offer.
Schedule
From decision to move, with what depends on whom.
For finance, the cost. For HR, the team. For legal, the clauses. For the board, the decision.
Each of these services is led by the same person, from the first contact to the signature. The options that reach you have already gone through real screening; it is never the whole market list. And the natural tension of every negotiation stays with us, not between the parties.
A well-signed contract is not the same as a well-built relationship. Each side experiences the negotiation under different pressures. We care for that relationship with the same attention we give the contract, so that, in the end, both sides want to sit at the same table again. We make that relationship start right. And we stay close afterwards.
There is no single type of Wharbz client.
There is each company's moment. And Wharbz turns that moment into criteria.
Meeting rooms always booked. People on headphones in the middle of the hallway. A position left open because, quite literally, there's nowhere left for anyone else to sit.
A merger, a lease ending, a brand repositioning: different reasons, same question. The first day in the new space already says what the company has become. Before any slide.
Twenty extra minutes to the right highway access, multiplied by every delivery, every day, for the years of the lease ahead. The labor pool. Distance to suppliers. The spreadsheet never shows this in time.
A poorly occupied building isn't wealth, it's idle capital. The right question was never how much it's worth, but what kind of operation it should attract.
A corporate lease isn't a monthly cost. It's what someone will ask, in a boardroom, five years from now: why was this decision made.
Recognized one of these moments? Then perhaps the decision had already been made. All that was missing was an address.
Referred to us? We work alongside whoever referred you.
Many companies come to Wharbz through the people who already advise them: their lawyer, their accountant, their architect, the consultancy handling their expansion. In those cases, everyone keeps their own role. Wharbz handles the search, the comparison and the negotiation of the property; the lawyer reviews the lease; the architect designs the space. Whoever referred you stays close, and the decision arrives better grounded for everyone.
If the company does not have these professionals yet, we can recommend trusted lawyers and architects and, when needed, engineers, with no obligation.

The conversation doesn't need a form.
A message is enough to begin.
No obligation. No sales pitch. A conversation about where your company stands, and what makes sense from there.
