A total of 50 Brazilian development companies will share the 1,180 square meters stand this Latin America country will set up, which means 800 square meters more than last edition’ one Brazil had in SIMA. Visitors will be able to find second-homes products, properties for vacation purposes or residential development projects, as well as different options of land for sale.

In order to analyze this country’s Real Estate market, its business opportunities and the key issues to be considered to safely invest in Brazil, IPP has included in its schedule a monographic session, called “Workshop Brasil”.

Afterwards, João Batista, president of Secovi-SP, will examine the macroeconomic situation of the Real Estate market. Other speakers, chaired by Fábio Mercadante Mortadi, director of Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Brazil, will describe both legal certainty issues and main aspects related to a wide range of investment options in Brazil.
