Legal fees Hi Frank, Usually the bigger international legal firms tend to charge more, but if they are good they also do quite a bit of research. One reason some of them can look expensive is that since they don´t have any staff in Brazil themselves, they are forced to work through a...

Hi, If you have anything you want to tell us, you can use the private message option. Your comments are not relevant and they have no facts in them. We have a CRECI but it is none of your business in what company name we have it or how our international company structure is organized, period...

tere Irja, Alec täällä. Lahetin sulle emailin jonkin aikaa sitten, mutta luultavasti meni sun junk emailiin....... terkut Brasiliasta, laheta emailit osoitteeseen: alexanderw(at)brazilianhomes.com

Hi Ana Albor, I think what you say is very sensible, a bit out of the city but still close by. It buys you more property for the money, and usually provides for a more relaxed lifestyle as well. JM Broads advice is very good. The first step is always to ask for the "registro de incorporação"...

Yes we are fully licensed in Brazil as every other Brazilian real estate agency.

Hi Celt, Happy to hear you liked it. I am pretty sure anyone that visits Maceió, will feel like you about the city. I haven´t spent Carnaval in Maceió, but almost everywhere else. How was the carnaval in Maceió? The city will receive plenty of new flights this and next year, from abroad and...

You must think of someone else as we have never marketed anything in Touros.

Move to Brazil Hi Neil, Good for you...moving to Brazil. Great move!! Your conclusion is indeed correct. Imperative to be selective when investing in Brazil. Our main advice would simply be "if the Brazilians don´t buy in the area, why would you....?" Good luck and welcome to Brazil,

Hi USARealEstateAtty, There are so many good areas. Rio is great, especially Buzios up north. Salvador is great as you say, but if you consider the state of Bahía, most people tend to go a bit away from the state capital itself. Our favorite in Bahia is Arraial D'ajuda, Trancoso and the...

Impact of Global crisis in Brazil and value developments The global crisis has affected Brazil as well to some extent. The biggest hit here was that the export companies had bought future contracts of currency....and took big losses when the R$ lost some of its value. However, only 14% of the...

Maceio is safe Maceio is one of the safest cities in Brazil. There was a strike yes, but that happens once in a while in most brazilian cities, not only in Maceió. (the average police salary is very, very low in Brazil) Someone in this forum must have been in Maceió besides us. Please, share...

Even though we are very Pro on Natal, after all we are based in Natal, we feel Brazil is such a wonderful country and more places deserve attention. Natal is great, but it is definitely not the only place to invest in Brazil. One of our long term favorites in Brazil is the beautiful city of...

We know Alex. Nice guy. Natal and Pipa will always be popular. On the north coast our favourite picks are Sao Miguel do Gostoso (no good developments yet) and Jacuma as it is so close to Natal. Jacuma has some great value villas for sale, especially with the current currency rate of the...

Now I understand. Got me lost there. He is one of the partners in the company. You probably meant Alec and not Alex.

Who is Alex?

Sure.....plenty here. They are called "poposudas"......Portugal could use some of them. Thank god people in Brazil look different than the portuguese.......and speak with a different accent as well.......

Hi, Well...I can assure of one thing: you won´t have more FUN anywhere else on the planet!!! Brazilians actually speak English pretty ok, especially people under 60 years of age. On the country side they don´t, but most brazilian friend I have, speak good English, even to the extent that it...

HI, Sure, it is on a different continent......but it only takes 6 hours 50 minutes to/from Lisbon. But once you get here....it is absolutely great!!

Hi Brasil 23, We have he guide which we bought out of interest two years ago. Even tough the guide is OK, it is definitely not of any extra added value, especially when you have to pay for it. I would say it is more targeted at developers who are looking for basic advice about Brazil, build...

Hi, If you want to invest in a market that is only starting to take off, consider Brazil. Building costs are very cheap still and the purchasing power of the brazilian population is increasing fast. Even though Brazil has been hit to some degree of the credit crunch, the impact here has been...
