Unfortunately for you it means you bought in a red light area, it isn't where tourists stay and it is also not the place where the locals like to live, so good luck with rentals and CG

Yes right up the street from those two giant offplan apartment blocks advertised by agents on this site.....maybe you'd like to fill them in with your knowledge on the area so they can update their websites?

Hi all,

I can only imagine what type of people would buy in these kinds of areas i.e people with previous convictions or are listed on certain registers in the uk!
I definately wouldnt take my children there either!!

I mean isnt it the same reason that alot of single men travel to thailand??

I mean I wouldnt buy in kings croos or the redlight soho district!

At least some resorts will have class!!

Take care-D

Dee Dee, BT has done a great little "slur" here ....been to Ipanema, Copacabana or Buzios (where he allegedly lives) recently? Let's just say the area is no different to Puerto Banus, bars, restaurants, discos and I've seen plenty of adults and children walking up and down the street there! I've also seen other types late at night...a bit like in Oxford Street..........
Note the "leafy" residential area as is described by the giant offplan apartments nearby! Do they describe it as an area where they shouldn't take their children to..maybe they should, doesn't worry me.

Not sure you have been to Ipanema, Copacabana or Buzios recently by the sounds of it. I won't deny that there are hookers hanging around Copacabana, but Buzios and Ipanema, I don't think so.

Well I m afraid anyway in Brazil, also in any poorer countries where they is high foreign tourism then there is going to be prosistutes there, So if these Off plans area s turn into really popular foreign tourist areas in say 5years time like we being led to believe then they will be many there too i guess.
Also from what i can tell, I know the area where Golf has bought and it is a popular area where wealthly Brazilians live.

Paul, thanks for your support, in gratitude I've just diverted another flight full of Brits from Fortaleza to Natal, they can eat at my hot dog stand!

Ha Ha cheers mate, keep doing that for me will you!

Hello Deedee
I agree with your statement but only to a extent and if you were buying a large area or lucky enough to sell to someone who wants to build his house there as remember theres alot of coast land there in Brazil, so small land areas you would be taking a big risk as now its getting common that developers generally buy very large unowned land from the council, they would buy alot more land than they need because the more quanity they buy the cheaper the per M2 is. The developer would then sell the land it does not need in small sections at a very high profit to people who want to build a property there for them selfs, if he can to normally pays for the land he actually needs. For example you can buy 1KM2 for £15/M2 or you could buy 20KM2 for £3/M2

re: currency move against your favour.

You can always fix the currency rate as soon as you agreed to make 10 payments in the req. currency.
