About Us
Founded in 1959 by Mr. Domingos Ferreira Leão Junior, Construtora Internacional is a 100% family-owned company that has built its reputation in the market through excellence in retrofit — a construction technique that combines architectural preservation with structural and technological upgrades. Over the decades, we have transformed retrofit into our true signature, applying it uniquely to each development, always with the same guiding principle: revitalizing properties while preserving their original identity.
Our distinctive advantage lies in our specialized expertise in identifying historic or aging buildings with high return potential, renovating them with technical precision, modernizing them with contemporary engineering and design solutions, and preserving the character and architectural essence that make them unique. The result is a new life for each property, combining historical value, functionality, and profitability.
We manage every stage of the real estate process in an integrated and strategic manner: opportunity sourcing, market analysis, technical and economic feasibility studies, development of executive projects, strategic planning, construction management and execution, coordination of multidisciplinary teams, quality supervision, logistical management, strict adherence to deadlines, final delivery, client handover, and post-construction maintenance. This 360° approach ensures efficiency, security, and asset appreciation in every project.
The strength of Construtora Internacional is the result of more than six decades of history, supported by strategic partnerships with suppliers, collaborators, clients, and family members who share our vision. Our core pillars — trust, respect, professionalism, and commitment — form the foundation of every project, ensuring not only construction excellence but also a lasting legacy in the real estate market.
