EdA The price you were quoted was the list price. You could get an apartment in EdA with a great view for $R200k. If you are interested then negotiate, watch the price fall, they are wanting to sell the remaining units as fast as possible. The extras I was talking about is the local...

2014 I can see the need for a bigger airport for the WC in Natal due to its proximity to Europe. Fact is that the airport, which already struggles handling ONE international flight, will never be able to handle what will be expected of it during the WC. they are already talking about using the...

Concerned you should be. These fees are totally mad! I have been living in EDA since July last year, bought direct thru Bi&Di here in Brasil. I have since moved out and am renting the apartment. Havent looked in here in a while and am shocked to see the payment plans you guys have with your...

Agree with both comments above. You need to do another inspection before you pay anything! Given how few apartments are occupied at present it may be the case that Bi&Di are trying to take advantage of the fact that you are in Europe. My best advice would be to be here in natal to complete the...

The condominium has yet to be set. As Marta suggested it is supposed to be around $R300, but thats not certain. Right now we are paying zero due to no meeting being arranged as yet to set an agenda. At present we are the only people fully moved in and living in torre B, there is another...

bi&di will only release the keys upon full payment, as per your contract. We investigated the possibility of negotiation with compensation but they are unwilling to move on what's agreed in the contract ( never mind that they are in breach of the contract). My thoughts are that you will have to...

Hi rangers. Some good news for you, there are now 3 apartments occupied in torre A. From talking to the foreman of the site today apartments in torre a are being finished as they sell. I would think that since you and others have paid 3/4 of the price that your apartments would be the ones...

Finally got our keys last night. There are now 3 apartments with people actually moved in. Bi&Di eventually saw sense and met with us. One point so far that may cause issue to those of you not in Brasil, there is no power and you have to go to the company to have it activated, I dont know how...

Hey paul Sorry I have not updated in a few days now. The position now is as follows. We bought with Bi&Di direct here in natal, so we are dealing with them, i mean dealing in the most loose terminology. We are now in a standoff with the company. They want us to transfer the money and then...

We got an email today from Bi&Di asking us to transfer the remaining balance to them for the delivery of keys on 7/9 July. It remains to be seen if this will happen, but I will inform if successful!

I'm sure you were not happy with the response you got wack? Ecocil are nothing more than a sub contracted company, I'm shocked your estate agent felt the need to clarify it? Everyone knows the "blockage" is Bi&Di who are responsible for allowing us to have the keys. You are correct that HSBC are...

We attended the reunion/condominium meeting last night which was nothing like what we had expected. The meeting descended into chaos within 10 minutes of starting and it is now very clear to us that Bi&Di are not being very honest in the dealings they are having with investors. The meeting was...

Just an update on some movement here from bi&di. We were invited to a second inspection of the apartment on Friday past. Everything in torre B is now good to go. All apartments are finished. We were lucky to find an employee who happily gave us a full tour of both torre A & B, were even on the...

debzor We have been in a lot of furniture outlets due to our eternal wait on the completion of this apartment. While there are a lot cheaper options out there we felt that this company was the best that we have seen so far. It is higher quaiity than the others. For example they fit kitchens...

Hi wack The company name is Bentec They have a web site .co.br. They have a lot of imported fittings and their showroom is very impressive. There is also a phone number on that web site. The specialize in space saving furniture which appealed to us greatly. This would not include air con...

Hi, It would depend on what floor your apt is on as to what the value would be. For example today floor 15-20 are valued at around R$280,000 as they sit ie. no fixtures and fittings. Its possible to sell in this condition as Brazilains dont seem to care too much, unlike us europeans. As...

email from Bi & DI Here is a badly translated email from the company! the last line says it all! "may be living there in 60 days" I am here to clarify any doubts that Mrs.. has in relation to the project in no time missed clearly with relation to nothing, and have been here ever available...

Hi rangers We did our inspection on 28 march and believed it would be a very short space of time to have the keys delivered. I'm not sure if you are aware that you must attend this inspection or have someone do it on your behalf or you will lose the guarantee from the company. We found very...

Hey rangers Delighted to hear your news, as yet we have no confirmation of any kind from bi&di. We were in the complex yesterday talking to the builders (we annoy them every couple of weeks for updates) and they seem to be under the impression July will be the very earliest for habitation. Does...
