Brazil 'easy to invest in'

Overseas property investors thinking of investing in Brazil will have "no problem" doing so, it has been suggested...

According to Tom Falcao, General Manager of the Brazilian tourist office in London, the country is particularly attractive as it has a booming tourist market.

He explained that there are nine state capitals in the north-east that are easily accessible by a seven-hour flight from Lisbon, in Portugal.

"They all have a very good infrastructure for tourism; all the hotels, food and things like that are very well organised," said Mr Falcao of the cities.

In addition, he noted that there are a number of attractions, including two opera houses built in the middle of the Amazonian jungle during the 19th century.

Raising the Roof, the International Herald Tribune's property blog, recently predicted that Brazil would see significant development this year, as it is set to attract a large volume of overseas property investment.
