What do the official construction costs say for SP, labour in Brazil?

Construction costs in Brazil, from IBGE. This source is answered live, so the page shows how to ask, not a number.

An official average or median published by a statistics office or regulator, not individual sales.

ProofPrice reads IBGE when you ask, so the answer is always the latest published. It comes with its period, its source and its licence; a range built from records is given only when at least 5 records sit behind it.

Where this comes from

Source
SINAPI average building cost per square metre by state (IBGE SIDRA, table 2296), published by IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatistica), with Caixa Economica Federal
Licence
IBGE public statistics (open data, no key). IBGE asks users to cite the source; no separate licence text was found, so we only pass on the published figure with attribution.
Attribution

How fresh the source is
Monthly; the latest month on 16 Oct 2026 was September 2026
Limits
A survey average of unit costs per square metre for a reference building, not a list of invoices or what any one builder paid: no range and no sample size. It excludes land, design fees and the builder's profit. Values are in current Brazilian reais (BRL).
Rule
A figure built from records is shown only when at least 5 records sit behind it; official statistics are shown as such, with their reference period. See how we earn trust and the method.
