Investing in Foreign Property
With the instability of the economy the way it is in North America and the threat of Big Brother, more and more North Americans are looking to invest in international real estate where they feel that they can protect their hard earned money. I find that many people who are looking to invest in a foreign country have many questions they are searching for answers for. Among these questions are some of the following. Where can I invest that I don’t have to worry about losing my investment because of an unstable government? How do I go about investing in a foreign country? Is it safe? What country is the best place to invest? What are the tax implications?
We spent over eight years researching international properties before we decided to invest and we compared the advantages and disadvantages of each. When it came down to it, we decided the best place to invest was Natal, Brazil and here are some of the reasons we decided on this tropical paradise:
WHY INVEST IN NATAL?
After researching the Brazilian property market extensively, Brazil Beach Resorts decided that the North-East of Brazil offers overseas property buyers excellent value for money and that within the short-medium return it is likely that the state of Rio Grande do Norte will outstrip other high potential areas within this particular region.
- There is strong demand in Rio Grande do Norte for holiday homes from both the Brazilian and overseas property markets and currently not enough properties are being built to meet this growing demand.
- Brazil has been identified by financial analysts and economists to become one of the next major boom areas around the world. It is now self-sufficient in oil and other energy types and is currently one of the major providers of iron-ore to China.
- Foreign tourism is already experiencing significant increases (approx 30% year on year)and this is set to continue for the foreseeable future. The number of charter flights from Europe is growing significantly as well the availability of local accommodation and facilities.
- Property in Brazil still provides excellent value for money though prices are increasing at between 20-30% per year depending on location and quality of construction.
- Land prices are still quite reasonable in many locations though it is noticeable that in select locations these are growing at a considerable pace in certain parts of the state - notably Ponta Negra and Pipa. Beach Resorts Investment maintains a close watch over all prices and in particular those in areas that have been identified as `up and coming`. We believe that the Praia do Cajueiro will be an excellent future investment opportunity.
- The wonderful and relaxed lifestyle and fabulous weather throughout the year will mean that the appeal of Natal and surrounding areas will continue to grow for years to come.
-It is estimated that in the UK alone an extra 2.5 million people will take the plunge and invest in overseas property.

In real estate why the early bird catches the worm
Why the early bird catches the worm
Who hasn't, at some time in their lives, looked at the value of property in a given area and thought to themselves "if only I had bought a piece of property there back when prices were low, just think how much money I would have made". Well this time, that profit can be yours. Buy now in Brazil and in 2...5...10 years time you will be counting your money and leaving others to wonder why they didn't invest when the time was right!
When it comes to property investment in Brazil, timing is everything and Brazil currently has some of the best value property in the world along with some of the highest forecasted growth.
Market analysts are now predicting price rises of over 20% per annum in the "hot zones" of Natal and Pipa. That's 20% per annum or more, starting from now.....

Massive, Unprecedented Tourist Boom
The facts:
• 150% rise in tourism in north-east Brazil between 2002 and 2005 alone, making Brazil one of the countries with the highest tourist growth rates in the world
Natal to have the largest commercial airport in Latin America (3rd largest in the world) by 2013, acting as a continental hub with 5 million passengers a year passing through
• Natal airport already operating at 110% capacity
• Flights to the region under 7 hours from mainland Europe
• Cost of living 1/5th of UK with excellent cuisine, lively atmosphere and some of the world's best beaches
• 96% of first-time visitors vow to return
• In November 2007, a new bridge over the Potengi River to the north of Natal was opened which vastly speeds up access to the north shore. This 194 million Real investment has encouraged economic expansion in Natal by opening up this area.
• Tourism in north-east set to provide 1.2 million new jobs, US$8 billion in foreign currency, 9 million foreign visitors and 65 million domestic visitors per year.
• Over 7000 miles of mainly semi-virgin coastline
• Natal officially has the purest air in Latin America and the 2nd purest in the world.
• Perfect climate with over 300 days of sun per year and average temperatures of 28°C giving rise to a year-round tourism and rental market
• Brazil has been selected as the host of the 2014 Football World Cup and will have massive worldwide exposure and increases in tourism.
• Free from hurricanes, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes
• Natal officially has the purest air in Latin America and the 2nd purest in the world.
• Natal is officially the safest state capital in Brazil
• 750 million US$ recently invested by government on improved tourism infrastructure such as airports, roads, marinas and environmental preservation creating over 200,000 new jobs last year alone
• 1.8 billion US$ earmarked for foreign investment in tourism infrastructure over the next 5 years (hotels, golf courses, condos, resorts)
• Enormous and expanding presence of luxury international hotel chains such as Renaissance, Kempinski, Inter-continental, Breezes Superclubs, Marriott, NH, Sol Meliá and Preferred Hotel Group with an increase of 135% in the number of hotel rooms expected over the next 6 years
• Beachfront land being sensitively developed by Europeans to a truly luxury standard, and this is just the beginning of what we are going to see on the market, currently at the best prices
• Developments of superior European standards with added value such as golf courses, private lagoons, world-class watersports and sporting facilities and, of course, excellent cuisine.
• Foreign property owners hold free and clear title and the property buying process in Brazil is very straightforward
• Prices in the region will never again be as low as they are now and history tells us that when the major corporations and government alike are investing so much capital in an area, then that is the time to invest.
We have been helping investors make the right decisions in Brazil for the past seven years. If you are interested in discussing opportunities with us, contact us.
