High Expectations for Foreign Property Investors in Natal,Rio Grande do Norte

High Expectations for Foreign Property Investors in Natal,Rio Grande do Norte

P.Negra

 A return to the boom years through foreign property investment ?

Given the current scenario of the national economy and the drop in mortgage lending, one of the ways to revitalize the local real estate market is the resumption of attracting international investments. That at least is the opinion of  entrepreneur Renato Gomes, president of the Association of Real Estate Companies of Rio Grande do Norte Real Estate (Secovi / RN). He said the devaluation of the real against the major foreign currencies such as the dollar and the euro,will cause the housing market to once again become attractive to investors from other countries, similar to the levels of eight years ago, when Natal and other municipalities experienced a real estate boom, through what was called at the time "second home tourism".
Renato says "With the financial crisis that the country is experiencing, and the devaluation of the Real, the market has the obligation to pursue new opportunities. We had a very good time in the not too distant past, when international investors saw Rio Grande do Norte as an excellent investment opportunity. In the current reality, entrepreneurs and the government should promote our potential and go abroad to seek these investors, "advocates.
For Gomes, the housing market should go hand in hand with the tourism sector, with both focused on the dissemination of tourism and economic potential of Natal and Rio Grande do Norte. In his view, the private sector and the government should create a "big task force" to seek these investors by participating in real estate and tourism events and join the dissemination of tourism to the dissemination of economic and real estate potential.
"With the development of these two strands that come together, you have a direct impact on the service trade and in all areas that these sectors move, "he says.

                   Natal-Brasil
In an effort to turn the talk into reality,Mr Gomes will discuss the issue with state secretaries of Tourism and Economic Development respectively Ruy Gaspar and Flávio Azevedo. "We are looking at where we can work together to suggest a design of what we think is viable," he emphasizes.
Gomes points out that in the golden age of the housing boom,he took part in several international fairs, in partnership with the Secretary of Development, during the then government of Wilma de Farias. "We participated in several exhibitions in Barcelona, ​​Madrid, Porto, Lisbon, London and Cannes and were very effective in selling our investment capabilities, "says.
Renato Gomes says he is confident in the renewal of the local Brazilian real estate market. "The market will not stop. The market goes at a slower pace, but is moving forward and there are excellent opportunities for foreign property investors in Natal,Rio Grande do Norte"

Brazilian Real at 13 Year Low to Dollar,Euro,Pound/Investment 55% cheaper.

Brazilian Real at 13 Year Low to Dollar,Euro,Pound/Investment 55% cheaper.

The Brazilian real has been on the steady downturn for the past year(as the graph shows)The rate of depreciation has accelerated these past 2 months and hit record lows against the main global currencies.

Although this is a troubling situation for the Brazilian government and has lead to significant price hikes on Brazilians travelling abroad,it also means that Brazil has become a much cheaper place to visit.Much cheaper in the region of 55% compared to just 18 months ago!
Not only is Brazil now a great place to spend hard currency as you your dollars go twice as far,it also makes Brazilian realestate investment extremely attractive.
Prices of homes and buildable land are now effectively 55% less in Euro,Dollar and British Pound terms.
For example,you can now buy a 4 bed beachfront condo villa in Natal in the North-East of Brazil for $127,000 dollars.Just 18 months ago it would have cost you double the price in american terms.

Equally this 130 room beachfront hotel was selling for 40 million reals at the beginning of 2014.The Brazilian Real price remains the same today but in Dollar terms it has dropped from $21 million USD to $10.4 million USD in just 18 months!

The key to investment gain in the short to long term will be based on Brazil's capacity to bounce back economically and stabilize/strenghten it's currency.The Brazilian Real averaged 1.88 to the dollar from 1993 until 2015.
If the real can return to it's baseline performance vis a vi the dollar,investors stand to make 100% returns on re-sale of their properties in a few years time..this is discounting the potential for property appreciating once the market picks up again.
Any savy investor who makes the move to capitalize on the current situation will very likely reap the rewards when the market corrects itself.
There really has never been a better time to buy property in Brazil.
Please contact me directly to explore the bargains that are just waiting to snapped up!
