New and Excited!
Hey everybody,
I am new to these boards and new to international investing. I live in the US and have been toying with the idea of investing overseas. My plan/goal is to buy something that can be rented out to vacationers and use it myself for 1-2 weeks per year until my wife and I retire.
The information on this board has been invaluable as Brazil is one of my target countries. Most of the talk I see is about NE Brazil. Has anyone looked into the lagoon areas just to the NE of Rio or places like Porto Alegre? Also, has anyone had experience with purchasing existing buildings (i.e. condos or houses) and then getting a management company to handle renting it out? I like the idea of pre-construction, but I worry that I am missing an entire market segment by not looking at pre-existing properties.
Thanks for all of your help and I look forward to getting to know all of you over the course of my education about this.
Greg
