Latest on the Banana residence
From last week this project now has all licences in place (apparentely),They have put up a sign infront of the development to advertise this also. The construction, so I am told, is suppose to start next month.
I visited the development today, they were about 5 grounds men there working keeping the area in neat condition. I took pictures of the plots, the already made football field, the swimming pool, bar area and the lagoon at the back of the site and the man made lagoon at the front by the road.
Also I spoke with Property Showrooms a few days ago who were one of the main promoters of this development. They appologised to me about not informing their clients about what was going, more due to the fact that they didnt know (and was obvious to see that they didnt know much about developmenting in Brazil in general). They also informed that they will soon be putting it back on the market, as the developer had only just recently informed them that they would be actually collecting the town hall approval at the end of this month, then to sell the last remaining units at R$249,000 and not at the 115,00 euros as previously thought. Property Showrooms then also sent me an email confirming this.
Although the development area in general looks smart enough (although I personnally dont like the designed houses),the residential area next to it is not so good and a very poor area. The main village area and beach of Cumbuco is 5KM away around the bendy road. I have pictures of these also so if anyone is interested rel pictures instead of computer design then send me a ppm with your email then I would be happy to forward them onto you.
Best regards all,
Paul
