Construction industry in Brazil addresses market trends and tax reform

The Brazilian construction sector is holding various industry events to address market trends and upcoming regulatory changes. In Divinópolis, the VII Construction Civil Seminar, organized by SINDUSCON-CO in partnership with CREA-MG and FIEMG, will focus on the local real estate market. A key component of the event is the presentation of the Divinópolis Real Estate Market Census, designed to provide strategic data for professionals and businesses to navigate short- and medium-term market movements.

Simultaneously, industry leaders in Tubarão are addressing the significant impacts of Brazil's tax reform, which is expected to take effect in January 2027. A meeting organized by Sinduscon and FIESC highlighted how the diverse nature of the construction sector—including building construction, real estate leasing, and prefabricated works—makes it particularly vulnerable to these changes. Experts emphasized the need for early preparation as the industry faces uncertainties regarding new tax rates and the implementation of the constitutional amendment.
