Vista Realty is led by two expats who have made Rio their home and now help others do the same.

OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN THE MARKET
With over two decades of experience in the Rio de Janeiro market, VISTA has the expertise and contacts to make your property purchase and relocation seamless.
Many of the most attractive properties in Rio are not advertised. Owners and condominiums often prefer a quiet, relationship‑driven sale, for security and privacy reasons.
VISTA maintains close relationships with owners, building managers and real estate partners, so that suitable opportunities, both on and off‑market, can be shared with the right clients.
● Discreet access to selected off‑market and pre‑market homes
● Fewer, better options chosen with your brief in mind
● Context on the building’s reputation and management
EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO CAREFULLY SELECTED HOMES
MEET YOUR REALTORS
The people you’ll be speaking both have experience of moving to Brazil as an Expat before you.
VISTA is led by Missy and Liza, who chose to emigrate to Rio with their own families and now put that experience, and 20+ years’ combined expertise in real estate to work for you.
Melissa Sturgis
Missy is an American who has lived abroad for more than twenty years and has moved her family to Rio twice. Raised in a real‑estate family, she combines an instinct for good property with a clear understanding of how it feels to arrive in a new city with big decisions to make.
Meliza Diamond
Liza is an experienced real‑estate and client‑service professional who has spent over 20 years advising international clients in Rio. She brings a meticulous eye for building quality, contracts and negotiation, and is known for being steady, organised and honest about trade‑offs.
