Answer 1

The problem of your code, which was being passed a class Request, but the method requires a array with values failed to call $request->all() and failed to configure your model with fillable which is the array of fields that can be updated or created (create).

In the eloquent there are ways to make updates to the table:

Model Property

class Property
{
    protected $primaryKey = 'id';
    protected $fillable = array('valor','proprietario','nome');
}

---

1) Manner:

public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
    $property = Property::find($id);
    if ($property)
    {
        $property->fill($request->except(['_token'])); 
        $property->save();
    }
    return redirect()->action('PropertyController@index');
}

in that item the model needs to be configured Mass Assignment, to know the relation of fields that can be updated with this technique (fill)

protected $fillable = ['valor','proprietario','nome'];

_{Observing: in that way the method save() it is mandatory to be called to save the data in the table.}

---

2) Way:

public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
    $property = Property::find($id);
    if ($property) 
    {
        $property->update($request->except(['_token']));
    }
    return redirect()->action('PropertyController@index');
}

---

3) Way:

public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
    $property = Property::find($id);
    if ($property)
    {
        $property->valor = $request->get('valor');
        $property->proprietario = $request->get('proprietario');
        $property->nome = $request->get('nome');
        $property->save();
    }
    return redirect()->action('PropertyController@index');
}
