Ta1724, the Condominium Aruanã

Condominium Features

We wanted Condominium Aruanã to offer a little bit more in order to make your stay extra special. For instance, when you're not on the beach, we wanted you to be able to take a nap in the hang mat or on one of the zen beds. Or perhaps you wanted to read in the gazebo or sit in the jacuzzi? Certainly if you had visitors, you could chat over a drink in the wet bar and follow-up with a barbecue. Our games and common area offers another possibility to relax after a day in the sun. Certainly families with children can enjoy our swimming pool which offers both deeper waters and shallow waters for younger children.

If you like even more luxury or privacy, choose one of our two bedroom units with private jacuzzi (extra option) and marvelous views. We offer eight 2-bedroom units and sixteen 1-bedroom units. As an additional option, all our apartments can be outfitted with kitchen and bathroom cabinets and bedroom cupboards so that you don't need to spend your first visit to Taiba shopping for cabinets. Unlike other local projects our bathrooms are handed over complete with shower box so that you can immediately wash away your travel weariness upon your first arrival. All units include granite stone top in the bathrooms and kitchens.

All units will have spacious balconies, installation sites for air conditioning, internet, and cable TV.

We offer additional optional packages for those who desire to have their unit fully furnished, with kitchen appliances, lighting, and air conditioning.

Condominium Aruanã will be delivered complete with electronic security systems in place and washing machines on every floor.

The area attracts kitesurfers, surfers, and windsurfers from all over the world but despite this, Taiba remains a charming undeveloped fishing village boasting annual festivals which attract many people from nearby villages and Fortaleza . Enjoy meeting the local folk, a friendly and welcoming people who are eager to serve and please visitors.

An Investment Opportunity

Why Brazil ?

Government stability, a booming gross domestic product, a national decline in inflation and sustained economic growth in Brazil is spurring foreign direct investment. Being one of the BRIC countries ( Brazil , Russia , India , China ) many investment funds, international investors and companies are taking an interest in Brazil . Brazil  is already ranked 9 th in the world in terms of Gross Domestic Product and had a GDP growth rate of 5.4% last year. Brazil 's population is young and growing and its middle class is just emerging, creating internal demand for property. Its economy is expected to grow faster than the developed world but unlike developed countries where mortgage markets are overdeveloped, Brazil is just starting a mortgage market for its middle class sector. Until last year it was rare for the middle class Brazilian to be able to acquire a housing mortgage. The development of the mortgage market will spur domestic demand for real estate. Indeed, there is growing domestic demand for land, rental properties and second homes in Brazil .

Brazil is  not being affected by the global credit crisis due to the fact that there are few mortgages. Without mortgages, there is little price inflation on homes, and the property market is significantly undervalued by international standards.  Brazil is a resource rich country and there has been a recent discovery of huge offshore oil deposits and the country is almost free of international debt.

Part of the growth enjoyed by the Brazilian real estate industry was brought by relaxed investment rules that allowed foreigners to purchase vacation homes or buy property as an investment. Buying property in Brazil is safe and your investment will be protected with the right advice.

Why Taiba?

The national growth rate of 5.4% is being matched in the state of Ceara where our project will be built. In fact the growth rate in Ceara is expected to surpass that of the national average. There are plans to locate an aluminum processing plant in Ceara and even discussions to place an oil refinery in Ceara. This is primarily due to the proximity of Ceara to the United States and to Europe . Fortaleza is the 5 th largest city in Brazil after Sao Paulo , Rio de Janeiro , Belo Horizonte , and Brasilia . There are direct flights from Fortaleza to Lisbon where Europeans can easily get connecting flights to other European cities. At the end of 2008, there will be a direct flight from Fortaleza to Atlanta , a major North American hub. This will make travel to Fortaleza significantly easier. In just a little over an hour's drive from Fortaleza 's airport you can arrive in Taiba. Taiba is 30 minutes from Cumbuco another popular tourist destination where huge investment is taking place (Cumbuco is passed on the way from Fortaleza to Taiba). In fact construction has begun on a golf resort in Cumbuco which will drive up the popularity of Taiba as a tourist destination. Cumbuco beachfront is almost fully developed and therefore it is a question of time before developers look to Taiba for more beachfront development opportunities.
