Brazilian real estate market hard to resist
Sunday, June 29, 2008
ForeignPropertyBuyer website has stated that Brazil's wealth of natural attractions and good resources make it likely to yield good returns on property investments in "the short and long-term". Land prices and property prices in Brazil are starting to grow at a fast rate, which is partly due to the massive interest in biofuels and many overseas investors are looking to Brazil for their next property investments.
Property expert Jamie Strong speaking to Nubricks.com said that the thing that will really help Brazil is the mortgages to foreigners and it will really open up the market when it is available. Jamie also praised the variety of properties and the ease of purchasing a property in Brazil.
Real estate firm IN2 said that Brazil is a hot pick for those looking to add sun and samba to their property portfolio. An increase in visitor numbers would boost the already booming Brazilian property market as tourist expenditure reached £5 billion last year. Felipe Cavalcante, president of The Association for the Real Estate and Tourism Development in north-east Brazil (Adit) remarked that 97 per cent of international tourists who visit Brazil once return again as they are attracted by the beauty of Brazil.
This comes after the news that Brazil is recently tipped by Homesgofast.com as one of the hot property locations for 2008.

Tuesday, June 24, 2008
Nicholas Marr, spokesperson for property portal Homesgofast.com, said that foreign investment in the Brazilian property market is hotting up. Property experts suggested that house prices are increasing year-on-year in coastline areas, while those looking to invest inland could benefit from cheaper property prices.
Rhiannon Williamson, director of Amberlamb, has said that overseas investors are looking towards Brazil as the next residential property investment hotspot. She added that the country's fabulous climate, low living costs and emerging status as factors appealing to foreign investors.
The 134 per cent increase in tourist numbers taking place from 2002-05 demonstrates that tourism is booming and also the guaranteed year round rental potential. The Brazilian government is investing profoundly in improvements to the country's infrastructure. The infrastructure improvements across the country indirectly support investors by raising the appeal of certain locations.
In 2003, investment banking and securities firm Goldman Sachs chosen Brazil, along with India, Russia and china, as one of the four emerging countries at the fastest economic pace that would have supremacy in the world economy in the future.

Brazil has Caribbean climate and stable rentals
Saturday, June 21, 2008
A growing number of foreign nationals are encouraged to consider purchasing a residence in Brazil, it has been reported.

Real estate professional, Robin Barrasford, said that Brazil offers the fantastic Caribbean climate and a consistent rental market. Brazil also offers numerous lifestyle attractions that are highly conducive to a relaxing and pleasant vacation. Recent reports indicate that rental incomes, property values and yields in Brazil are all on the rise.
The relatively low cost of living, and what's more, the perennial glorious weather attracts more tourists worldwide. The one thing that is consistent about Brazilian weather is its year-round beauty. Temperatures are almost always moderate with very little seasonal variation. As a result, demand for rental accommodation will increase and yield higher returns for property owners. The infrastructure improvements in recent years such as good quality housing, services, amenities and good transport links means that Brazil property is "worth a look".
Many property experts consider that although it may take time before there is any considerable increase in a property's value, the enduring growth means it still offers the potential to produce good returns for investors. Property website Homes Worldwide revealed that already the property activity is just beginning to hot up in the South American country. The figures from Homebuyer Show North and Property Investor indicate that Brazil has seen capital growth of around 20 per cent.

Brazil - a nice and a safe place to live in
Wednesday, June 18, 2008
Research by NatWest has found that Britons are increasingly attracted by the option of working abroad or retiring in an overseas country. A British expat who own property in Brazil have declared that the Latin American nation is one of the "safest places in the world", it has been reported.
The telegraph has reported that Damon Kestle and his pregnant wife from North London are planning to migrate to Brazil next year. He said that the move is to just expand his business horizons overseas; but also he is attracted by the actual lifestyle opportunity presented by Brazil as it offers a better standard of living than the UK, as well as lower crime rates.
There are lovely suburbs where the criminal activity is comparatively very low. You can wander around in Brazil countryside safely even at night, without any fears you can enjoy the evening, the beautiful countryside and its tranquility. Brazil is also said to offer lots of attractions such as good quality housing, services, amenities and wealth. Rhiannon Williamson, Director of Amberlamb said that Brazil is considered to be a desirable and safe place to visit, invest, and do business.
The house prices in Brazil increased by an "impressive" amount last year and values are set to keep growing. This suggests that property owners could collect high returns should they sell their property on at a later date.

Brazil taps into Mexican market
Tuesday, June 17, 2008
Brazil's tourism institute has revealed that an increasing number of tourists are choosing to take their holidays in Brazil and the overall number of foreign arrivals during 2008 was likely to exceed the total recorded a year earlier.
Embratur has created a new body, The Discover Brazil to attract tourists from Mexico and the new promotional campaign will begin from June. This shows that government is taking efforts to market the country as a good holiday destination abroad. Tourism officials, Representatives of the four airlines that operate between the two countries, travel agents and diplomats met recently to decide on implementing the service in Mexico.
The promotional drive will be launched across various parts of Mexico to support the country as a tourist destination amongst the Mexican people. The campaign will benefit investors of rental accommodation in Brazil as the country's government is actively targeting the tourist sector and trying to attract overseas vacationers through various means.
Prices are still relatively cheap but with the stable economy property experts believe that there is a strong basis for property prices to catapult higher. Consequently, property investors who enter the market ahead of price appreciation could find their purchase is worth much more within short span of time.

Morgan Stanley recommends Brazil 'a good option'
Tuesday, June 10, 2008
Overseas investors have been advised that recent problems in the global economy could ultimately work in their favor as many developers are failing to meet their sales quotas. Property investors in the current economic climate could find themselves well-placed to negotiate a good price.
Morgan Stanley's head of emerging markets, Jonathan Garner explained the reason he is advising investors to make land and property sector investments in countries such as Brazil is that the credit crunch has not affected these emerging markets. He further added that the banks are in good shape and the households are not overextended. Property experts have said that Brazilian market's real estate laws are designed to support property purchasers and make them self-assured about the security of their investment.
Mr. Garner's claim is further supported by figures compiled by the Reuters, which showed that household debt to GDP ratio in Brazil is less than ten per cent whereas in UK it is above 100 percent. Brazil is effectively weathering the storm created by the downturn in the global economy.

Friday, June 6, 2008
Santa Catarina is a sunshine state in the south of Brazil located between the states of Parana and Rio Grande do Sul and its economy continues to burgeon with its tourist trade growing at a remarkable rate.

Santa Catarina, with it eco-friendly environment and secure and peaceful atmosphere, is said to be an appealing option because it allows people to enjoy a different lifestyle without compromising on their standard of living. Santa Catarina is becoming a driving force in the Brazilian economy, now challenges Sao Paulo and Rio for GDP per capita.
Foreign investors and tourists are drawn to Santa Catarina because it offers excellent weather, natural environment, and high-quality housing and good public services. The economic expansion during this year would be largely fuelled by its increasing popularity as a holiday destination. This may persuade those who are thinking of buying property for sale in Santa Catarina.
Properties in Sao Paulo have become more expensive. The economic downturns in sao Paulo has made investors turn to Santa Catarina and it has become its natural successor. Two bed, two bath condo apartments in Joinville, built by British developers and only few minutes drive to the city centre, are priced for as little as £33,500.
While Sao Paulo isn't exactly being overlooked, government has to rehabilitate the system to make it favourable for property investors. It's no wonder that investors and tourists are moving into the state of Santa Catarina as it offers beautiful countryside, ecological tourism, adventure sports, and eclectic historic monuments.
