I have been there a few times, but not a great deal was happening development wise when compared to Natal.
I liked Morro de Sao Paulo a lot, but I am not sure about investing there. My opinion is that they are taking the p*** with the tourists with taxes, prices and bad service, which will bite them on the hand eventually unless they do something about it. The local council are now charging a tax when you land that is supposed to be used for improvements to the island which is not happening.
In Salvador I have heard that the local govt. is cleaning up the old town, which is great as the last time I was there 2 years ago it was a bit hairy, so maybe look there as well.
I also hear there is some action around the bay of all saints regarding developments, which I am going to have a look at soon, so that is probably your best bet near Salvador.
