Brazil Gallery: Images & Insights
Due to the perfect climate, the Northeast of Brazil is the main holiday destination within Brazil and is also the area that is receiving most of the real estate investments and attention from international property investors. Another major reason why real estate in Brazil's northeast receives worldwide property investor attention, is the fact that northeastern Brazil is the closest point to Europe and the U.S. with an approximate flying time of only seven hours.
Foreigners who relocate or holiday in Northeastern Brazil are finding that their money goes much further compared to other destinations, making it affordable for holiday travel or permanent residence. The Northeast of Brazil is also considered a very safe region with low crime rates and the area is famous for a very relaxed and a truly tropical lifestyle.
Major tour operators are realizing the enormous tourism potential of Northeastern Brazil and are quickly adding the destination to their tour itineraries. The Brazilian government is investing billions to improve the infrastructure in the northeast, and together with the massive investments in beach and golf resorts from international real estate developers, Northeastern Brazil has the potential to become the most sought after tropical destination in the world.

Looking Toward the Future
- Brazil is one of the four largest developing economies in the world with an annual GDP growth of approximately 6%. According to Goldman Sachs, by 2050 Brazil will be the world's 5th biggest economy.
-
Brazil's population is starting to buy property with bank financing just like the populations in all western countries; it is expected that property prices in Brazil will increase steadily well into the future.
-
Currently total mortgage values represent only 2% of the Brazilian GDP, however the Brazilian government expects the mortgage market to grow 600% by 2014.
-
There are no restrictions imposed by the government for foreigners buying property in Brazil.
-
The Northeast of Brazil will benefit from massive investments along the coastline. In the coming five years, billions will be invested in hotels, resorts and golf courses.
- Brazil discovered new offshore oil fields in 2007, which have been touted as a potential billion dollar industry. Though the country is already a major oil producer, and its state-run petroleum company, Petrobras, is one of the highest-grossing in the world, the discovery could propel Brazil into OPEC and make it a major oil power.
