Brazilian Real Estate
Brazil Property Group Ltda. caters to Pension Funds, Investment Funds, Private Equity Groups and Private Investors for their specific Brazilian Property Needs. We specialize in the following main categories: Amazon rainforest For Sale, Brazilian Amazon Carbon Credits, Brazilian Farmland, Brazil Tree Plantations, Brazilian Ranch land, Brazil Ethanol Facilities, Brazilian Bio-diesel facilities, select large Brazil Beach front properties, Brazil Real Estate Project Management, and Brazil Real Estate business Structuring.
We have been selling real estate in Brazil for over five years. We are an ever changing company that originally started in the residential area. However, over the years we began to assist several prominent investors and investment groups after they encountered less than helpful Brazilian agents. Due to our clients, we have changed our focus to meet their specific Brazilian Forestry, Farming and Amazon Carbon Credit Needs.
Our core business is currently to assist our clients in purchasing the correct forestry properties for Amazon land, Western Bahia and Mato Grosso farmland, Mato Grosso cattle ranch land or Northeastern Brazil ethanol mills. We have come to realize that most foreign investors have very little understanding of this particular Brazilian Market - even professional real estate agents and experienced real estate professionals struggle without the property guidance and are typically turned off before they ever make an acquisition. To solve this, of our 700 Brazilian real estate listings, we have narrowed down the list to the top 30 properties, five properties in each business category.
Our top 30 properties have been vetted by our real estate attorneys, we have performed the proper ground work to know that if you are seeking a tree plantation, ethanol facility, soy farm land, cattle ranch land, or Amazon forestry property for FSC or Carbon Credits, one of these will meet your needs, and you search is over.
About Brazilian Lands
Brazil is one of the only places in the world where a person can buy, free hold with clean title and even title insurance, highly productive contiguous pieces of land that are over 100,000 acres / 40,000 hectares. In Brazil there are about 500 properties that are ranch land, farmland, or forestry land that fall into this category.
Most of the properties are already developed into farms or ranches, but a select few are very large pieces pristine rainforest land. In Brazil, there are only about 100 properties over 250,000 acres / 100,000 hectares. These properties are the gems of the world - they are extremely rare to find with clean title, and even more rarely on the market. Typically, when on the market they sell immediately, as long as they have all documents in order. Our team of attorneys at Brazil Property Group Ltda. has made it our goal to sell these priceless properties and to sort through the documentation so you don't have to.
About Brazilian Rainforest Lands
There are three principle reasons a client would want this land:
- Carbon Credit speculation or Preservation projects. We are the leader in this type of business in the world for the Brazilian Market place. We have brokered or set up more land for Adverted Deforestation than any other market.
- Forest Stewardship Counsel (FSC) projects. This is a sustainable management plan on the land. This is a very profitable way to do business if the right team is chosen. One tree will cost to cut US$60 dollars and it will sell in the US for US$2,000 dollars. The target under the Brazilian system is to sub-divide the land into 25 sections and cut one section each year for 25 years. In each section you are allowed to cut 30 cubic meters of wood PER HECTARE. For the Gringo investors please note there are 423 board feet in each cubic meter.
- Private retreat or eco-resort. Rainforest land is ideal for eco-resorts or a private home. It is every rich man's dream come true to own a piece of land that is a private estate unto themselves, where they can go to relax and truly know that they have absolute privacy.
Brazilian Farmlands
Our core areas for Brazilian farmland are the states of Mato Grosso and the western part of Bahia. For other areas we can source the land. We target farm land in Brazil because Brazil is the largest producer of many of the world's farm commodities such as Soy. The market is an evolving market - currently all the farm products in Brazil are exported by truck - during harvest season the one north south road going through Mato Grosso is congested with tractor trailers/lorries bringing the product in sacks to the market. The logistics of shipping product to market has kept farmland prices in Brazil at 1/3 the price level as comparable land in the United States. Over the next decade all the major farm areas in Brazil will have new rail access; this will eliminate the divide and allow farmland prices to appreciate to the global price levels they have yet to reach. This makes Brazilian farmland ripe for purchase.
Brazilian Tree Plantations
We at Brazil Property Group Ltda. has made it our goal to target farm lands and cattle lands for reforestation properties. We believe that protecting the planet is in humanities utmost interest. Our active goal forward is to target existing cattle ranches and turn these into tree plantations. We currently target the western part Mato Grosso for Teak and tropical hardwoods and we target Eastern Bahia and Minas Gerais for Eucalyptus. Our main recommendation is to go big on either of these projects. One hectare of teak can sell for US$100,000 to US$200,000 after 20 years, and even more after 40 years. If the development and purchase cost is US$3,000 per hectare over the same time. The project becomes highly profitable. As for Eucalyptus, the best target is in locations with the highest amount of water or a very high water table. The government currently has a push to have another 5.5 million hectares of tree plantations, so there are some tax incentives to enter into this market.
Brazilian Ranches
In Brazil there are millions of cattle, and cattle ranches are widespread. They came to be over the last fifty years through the horrible practice of valuable wood extraction, then slash and burn the rainforest, then reseeding and relocating cattle onto the land. This is the cause of 70% of deforestation. In Brazil, only about 20% of the land is utilized in an efficient manner. We recommend when buying a cattle ranch to buy an existing property that has not been slashed and burned to be created. There are hundreds of properties that are ideal for cattle ranch buyers.
Brazilian Ethanol Mills
This is a very difficult market: there are approximately 500 mills in Brazil and another 500 planned to be built or in the construction phase. We have a selection available, however we recommend our services to source these mills because there is no readily available listing.
Brazilian Large Beach Land
We have only selected the best properties at the best price. There are only about 45 large properties for sale along the coast of Brazil. We have access to most of these properties, but we are only listing the best five for sale.
Why Buy Brazil?
The #1 reason to buy in Brazil is the Property Appreciation that will take place over the next 10 years.
-
Undervalued Rural Land Values
In Brazil, Acreage bought for farms can sell for as low as US$500 dollars for highly productive farm land. Forestry land can sell for as low as US$50 per acre.
-
Growing Economy
Brazil will be the 5th Largest Economy in the world by 2050. Even during the recession of 2008 and 2009, many of Brazil's core non-manufacturing industries have not been affected by the downturn, including rural lands.
-
Pay little, get a lot
In Brazil, operating expenses are 1/2 or 1/3 (or even less - especially in the case of skilled and unskilled employees) than the United States and Europe. This type of benefit can save a company millions of dollars in a major forestry or farming operation each year.
