FOOTBALL ACADEMY in the new luxury RESORTS

4 September, 2011 No Comments

Football breaks down barriers by creating a language that everyone understands….. David Beckham and Lee Sharpe introduce tourist destinations in Brazil for 2014.

The usual activities most performed in luxury resort are water sports, tennis, and golf. Due to the global impact that football has had, resorts have started to build football academies, because for what we know this country is the land of football and sun.

As shown in the video, David Beckham, Los Angeles Galaxy player since 2008, disclosed his intention to build a soccer school in the beach of Sao Roque, 50 km from Natal, northeast of Brazil. It’s a project which envisages also the construction of a resort with sports facilities including a mini-stadium and eight soccer fields, as well as a golf course. It will be managed by the David Beckham Academy, currently headquartered in Los Angeles. The complex, financed by Norwegian capital, the Brazil Development turisticos Investimentos Ltd., will count with the construction of 8 hotels and luxury apartments as well.. in anticipation to the World Cup of 2014. It will also have a kart track for Formula 1 training, with the collaboration of F1 world champion Rubens Barrichello.

Another example, ManUnited Lee Sharpe will be in charge to manage the football academy that bears his name, in the White Sands Country Club resort in Natal, in particular, facing the Genipabu beach, located in the Northeast.

The complex and its Lee Sharpe Football Academy, sponsored by Planet Green, will have 244 residences, with plots ranging from 360-515m2, located 15 miles away from Natal International Airport, which it’s expected to reach an investment return of 15 -20% annually.

These examples are further evidence that investing in Brazil today is to benefit from its economic boom. In addition to the economy, add the advantages of this location, because the Northeast part of Brazil is the closest to Europe (roughly a 7 hours flight). By 2012, what will be one of the largest airports in Central and South America, Sao Gonçalo, should be operative with more flights to the area, which will increase the overall area’s value, specially from properties.

The equation is quite simple: World Cup + The Olympics + a growing economy + scarcity of homes = Benefits …… and a tight calendar to become a developed country, which, according to consultancy Ernst & Young, by 2020 Brazil will no longer be the eternal emerging country. During the presentation of the new brand of Banco Santander in Brazil, the result of a merger between Banco Santander and B. Real (Brazilian) in Sao Paulo, Emilio Botin talked about growth, growth and growth in the Brazilian market, as its primary objective. (Expansión 11/25/10)

Brazil has gone from being a country with an enormous potential to be a solid reality, with high expectations that locate it the fifth world economic power in only 10 years. To be successful, politicians are focusing their efforts mainly on job creation, a higher base salary and a policy for economic stability.

As I’ve previously mentioned in other posts, the investment opportunities for Spanish companies are favored due to the next World Cup, the Olymplic Games of Rio de Janeiro in 2016, as well as governmental plans to improve infrastructure and housing .

Another challenge for Brazil during the World Cup is that the trophy will be a green goblet featuring the country’s great power in photovoltaic solar energy as an example of renewable energy. They will also build solar stadiums (based on the Stade de Suisse Wankdorf) with huge solar panels such as the Mineirao in the state of Minas Gerais (an initiative from IDEAL, Institute for alternative energy Development in Latin America). The proposals of Qatar and Taiwan (World Games stadium) as possible hosts of the 2022 World Cup, also bet on solar stadiums.

…. in a globalized world the only way to be competitive is to expand ….

The former English Manchester United player, is expanding his football academy in Egypt, in particular building another in The Pearl of Sahl Hasheesh resort in Hurgada, Red Sea.  this exclusive resort on the Red Sea coast, counts with 165 apartments of various sizes, located in four small islands, with 12 luxury villas of 222 m2 in a plot of 500 m2.

Invest in Natal – Brasil

17 March, 2010 No Comments

Last week we were in the real estate fair Natal (Brazil), IX Salão Imobiliário DO RN, held in the Natal Convention Center, from 10 to 14 March 2010.

The sensations that caused us Natal just when we arrived in the city, is that it’s in urban development, where currently are construction a large number of apartment buildings, condominiums and other real estate developments, both to the consumption of Brazilian emerging middle class to foreign investors who see Brazil as a rising economy and potential return on investment within a short period.

Natal is the capital of Rio Grande do Norte in northeastern Brazil. Those who live here can enjoy over 400km of magnificent beaches, many of which are protected by reefs and natural pools, interspersed with rivers, freshwater lakes, sand dunes and cliffs of colors. Natal is very clear, cheerful and sunny.

In the real estate fair, we could see ourselves that Brazil is in a great economic growth. Building contractors, property developers and real estate companies were present to offer visitors the many real estate developments for sale in Natal city, as in the rest of the state Rio Grande do Norte.

All these real estate developments will be announced very soon in the New Homes Real Estate Portal.
