Resort Group’s sales in Brazil exceed all expectations

British buyers are creating a real buzz in Natal, Brazil, increasingly considered as a hotspot for international property. Long regarded as a vacation destination for Brazilians, Natal is experiencing something of a land rush. In just six weeks, 73 properties have been sold to British clients at Elegance Natal Golf in Brazil by Resort Group.

Prices in the area compare very favourably with those in Europe, with €89,000 buying a two-bedroom apartment in Natal compared with €285,000 to buy a similar property on the Spanish Costa de la Luz.

Graeme Grant, managing director of Resort Group International, says, “While we anticipated Elegance Natal Golf being popular with Brits due to the high quality of the resort and surrounding areas, the demand has been exceptional and far surpasses our expectations.”

Footballer Ronaldo, three-time winner of the FIFA World Player of the Year and Antonio Banderas, most recently starring as the voice of Puss in Boots in Shrek the Third, will both own properties at the resort.

Elegance Natal Miltonia, the first phase at Grand Natal Golf, is part of a 5,500 acre resort development by established Spanish developer, Grupo Sanchez. The one, two and three bedroom apartments plus two and three bedroom penthouse apartments are being sold exclusively by Resort Group International. Prices start at €58,000 (approx. UK£39,075) for a one-bedroom apartment.

Owners at Elegance Natal will have use of all the facilities at Grand Natal Golf, which includes five golf courses, eight hotels, an equestrian centre, the Ronaldo Football Academy, a spa and health centre, seven kilometres of beach, tennis courts, shopping and beach clubs.

Regarded as one of the safest areas of Brazil, Natal is situated in the north-east of the country and, from November, can be reached on direct flights from London Gatwick. Natal offers a large number of restaurants, bars and cafes with lively nightlife and, along with Antarctica, has the cleanest atmosphere in the world according to NASA.
