Águas Cristalinas: Property Investment Potential
The World's Largest Emerging Market
Águas Cristalinas is an outstanding investment opportunity in the world's largest emerging market - Brazil. Investment in this development offers investors the opportunity for early entry into Brazil's emerging north east region giving investors the chance to earn maximum returns on their investment.
This investment is suitable for a longer term strategy; based upon a capital growth forecast of 15%, an investor would earn an estimated return on investment of 101% over a 5 year period, including an estimated rental yield of 9.9% per annum.
Frontline Beach Location
Águas Cristalinas will occupy an impressive frontline beach situation only 110 metres from the waters edge, with the assurance that nothing will be constructed in front of the development. Thoughtfully designed to ensure every apartment benefits from its beachfront location, all apartments enjoy spectacular sea views. Penthouse apartments provide the height of luxury living - a roof terrace with Jacuzzi, BBQ and shower.
Such high-end, frontline beach properties are in high demand with Brazil's affluent middle-classes. Apartments at Águas Cristalinas present an excellent opportunity for prudent property investors to gain early entry to the world's largest emerging market maximising capital gains - a promising addition to any investment portfolio.
Comparative Pricing
Águas Cristalinas is a unique development in an early emerging area of Brazil's Rio Grande do Norte region and is not easily comparable to other developments in the region. It is one of the first developments of its kind in an area that has a stringent local authority in respect to building approval - due to this limited supply, Maracajaú is set to become an exclusive and sought after area with high demand for its properties.
When compared to other developments in the Natal region, prices at Águas Cristalinas are favourable. This development is one-of-a-kind in Maracajaú due to its close proximity to the beach and luxury penthouse apartments.
High Profile Area
The Rio Grande do Norte region, Natal in particular, is becoming a high profile area attracting world famous celebrities. The new David Beckham Football School is to be located in Natal and will form part of a vast tourist complex. World renowned Ricardo Kaka, former European footballer of the year, purchased in Obelisk's previous Estrela do Atlântico opportunity in Natal. And recent reports have highlighted that Michel Lacoste, Head of French Clothing Company Lacoste, is also looking to invest in the largest emerging market in the world.
Exit Strategy
Brazil currently has a housing deficit of nearly 8 million properties with demand and population growth only set to continue on their upward trajectory. It has been estimated that an additional 27 million properties will be needed over the next 15 years. This presents excellent investment opportunities for property investors both for resale and long term buy-to-let.
Brazil's resale and rental markets also hold the added advantage of having a large and established domestic market - there is huge demand for properties from the local market that is additional, rather than dependent on, a foreign buyer market.
Águas Cristalinas possesses key characteristics demanded by both domestic and international buyers; high quality build, beachfront location, luxury apartments and breathtaking sea views.
