Government of Tarcísio de Freitas receives R$ 1.3 billion from auctions and property sales
The administration of Tarcísio de Freitas concluded 2025 with R$ 1.3 billion raised from auctions and direct sales of properties, vehicles, and shares in a fund that negotiations unused state buildings.
The Tarcísio de Freitas administration in Brazil reported a notable financial achievement, ending 2025 with R$ 1.3 billion gathered through various auctions and direct sales of state assets, including real estate and vehicles. This substantial figure indicates a significant increase in revenue generation compared to prior administrations, highlighting the effectiveness of current government strategies that focus on liquidating underutilized assets. The announcement underscores the government's approach to streamline operations while maximizing financial resources at its disposal.
Additionally, it was revealed that beyond the immediate earnings from these sales, the Tarcísio government is set to save significantly on maintenance costs associated with the properties sold. This dual benefit not only bolsters immediate cash flow but also allows for reallocating these resources toward essential public works and social policies, demonstrating a proactive approach to governance. The government's strategy reflects a marked departure from previous fiscal policies, emphasizing enhanced transparency and efficiency in managing state resources.
In comparative terms, Tarcísio's administration claims to have raised five times the revenue generated by the last two state administrations combined. The figures they shared indicate that between 2015 and 2022, predecessors João Doria and Rodrigo Garcia raised only R$ 242 million, while Geraldo Alckmin's government managed just R$ 18 million during his term. This stark contrast positions Tarcísio's management as a potentially defining element of his administration, setting a precedent for revenue generation through asset management that future governors may look to emulate.
