Brazil Property Podcast
The latest podcast in the series is focused on the new emerging market of Brazil and what it has to offer over its international competitors. In edition 27 Adam Samuel is joined by Felipe Cavalcante, president of the ADIT (The Association for the Real Estate and Tourism Development in North East Brazil) and Jamie Strong, Head of Business Development for overseas property agents Experience International.
Brazil has been on our overseas property investment radar for over 18 months now, but what do you really know about this new property opportunity. In this podcast we discuss the many reasons why you should seriously consider this as not only a great lifestyle location but as a potential investment hotspot. Felipe explains why the ADIT was set up and what advantages it has for the property buyer/investor, whilst Jamie discusses the in and outs of buying property in Brazil and what types of property are available.
Both Felipe and Jamie are agreed that the following factors are placing Brazil on the investment map:
Increase in Foreign Direct Investment
This has be increasing year on year and shows no signs of slowing down.
Experienced developers
Brazil has an established domestic market, so the developers are experienced in building all types of property.
Brazil has large domestic market
A study has shown that by the year 2015, 60,000,000 Brazilians will be middle class and therefore this opens up a huge disposable income, a large proportion of which will be invested into property. This means they are not relying on International investors to buy into the resorts and means that as an investor they will be a large market of people to sell or rent to.
Beaches Culture and People
Brazil has a huge coastline and many stunning beaches. The weather is very temporate. The culture is very laid back and Brazilians are very friendly people.
Jamie has some tips of where to buy in North East Brazil and believes that now that many airports are able to accept low cost flights and mortgages are set to be available soon, that the area is about to become very popular with tourists and property buyers alike.
