I go into Salvador quite a bit, never had any trouble, been lucky because almost everyone who goes their has a story to tell, you got to be street wise and stay out of certain areas, I remember when Airtours first started to go their, the staff stayed in Salvador for the 2 weeks, Airtours...

I'm off to Salvador May 3rd First choice £204 return including taxes etc, don't you just love it

Thanks For That Very Interesting

So without further ado: First off, the top 4 (Recife, Salvador, Natal and Fortaleza) represented 83% of all incoming passengers to the Northeast in January 2008. The average remained constant over the past 5 years and they still receive 96% of all international arrivals. Thanks for that...

Sorry to start another thread, i cant find the old thread relating to the currency exchange, I notice today the Real is R$3.3 to the Pound, If you look at the 12 month chart you will see last March the exchange rate was R$4.2 to a pound, This trend will surly this will be the nail in the...

yes, i know this development very well and my partner has talked to people who have bought on this development, i feel it not right to talk about this development on the public board, if you message me i can tell you about what i know. cheers Nigel

Hi guys, To avoid losing on the property price when purchasing use the exchange company to fix the rate. Once you know that you have to pay 100,000, fix it the very same day in the best rate available to avoid losing on the fluctuations on the currency market. More info give me a shout...

Great news to see Brazil hosting the world cup in 2014, the trouble is in Brazil they do not know what a deadline is it has to be the worse country in the world for getting anything done, why use one form when you can use 50, I think you will have a far better chance of seeing the world cup if...

Excellent post Paul, in simple terms a $R250,000 3 bed apartment in August would have cost £61,195, and today it would cost you £69,444, their is an oversupply of apartments as it is and this will just make matters worse, something is going to have to give somewhere along the line, perhaps...

Its a long read but well worth it. Carnival time in Brazil - Investors Chronicle

I am afraid i do not share your view, what capital growth are you receiving on your full purchase price, and you still have to pay 70% for your property, what happens if the exchange rate goes against you? just a couple of thoughts.

WRONG THREAD DOH!!!

Now looking at this situation, the project looks great although it is 3 km from the beach, that has some advantages, being that beach front is very expensive to maintain, the constant wind with salt water will even eat through the roof tiles, So the properties have not gone up in value, that's...

Golfworld, So people bought in May off plan watched the next phase go up in value thinking that their investment has gone up 40% and the truth of the matter you can still pick them up at the original price, this is exactly what i have been going on about, must be very disappointing for anyone...

Hi Paul, Timing is everything, I think you will agree, in a lot of countries you can easily get a bank account and when the currency is in your favour you can send a few grand over their, not so simple in Brazil, because it is an absolute nightmare getting a bank account, also you have the...

I have not seen it discussed much on this board but i think it is an important thing to think about when buying abroad, It was only just over a couple of years ago i was getting over 5 reals to a UK pound, today it is 3.69 to a pound, 2 years back a house costing $R200,000 Would cost £40k...

Their is some real strange people on this board, Golfingworld just comes back from Brazil and says it how it is and he gets slated for it, Well for your information Golfworld was in Brazil, people from my company met him while he was over their, he seams an honest man with his head screwed...

A great article on Brazil in today's Sunday mail (9-9-2007) in the financial section page 3, really worth a look. Cheers. Nigel

Hi Yeboc, I heard this week that 2 PGA golf courses have passed planning approval to be built north and south of Prair Do Forte so i think your land (salvador) is a very good investment, Shame its not in property as Salvador area has a solid existing tourism base and is increasing every year...
