Better?
Or, numerous (NOT ALL) agents in Europe are British citizens ripping off other British citizens by deliberately misinforming, or malinforming, lying and vastly overcharging for Brazil properties because they compare well to Europe prices and the Europe property market currently sucks.

I recently wrote to one well known and much publicised web advertiser, informing him that his agent here in Brazil was doubling the local price of property, and suggesting he deal direct with Brazilian brokers to save his clients money. Despite giving examples of 100+% commissions on specific deals, he declined to respond, obviously suggesting collusion.
