MANCHESTER, England, September 24 /PRNewswire/ -- In today's tougher property market, experienced and sophisticated investors are looking for alternative ways to expand their portfolios away from the more traditional off plan and tenanted options. One of the most exciting and potentially lucrative trends is the purchasing of Land Plots. This option allows investors to buy a plot of land with planning permission which gives the opportunity to invest relatively small amounts of money in new projects.

Emerging Real Estate, one of the UK's leading property investment consultancies, is working with a British developer in Brazil, and is now offering clients a unique proposition. From just GBP19,800, investors can either buy a land plot in full and receive a 16% return over two years (at 8% per annum) or they can opt for an interest free monthly payment plan over two years.

Cocoa Beach is a stunning, premium beach front development that will be made up of luxury and individual style villas all set on 355 metres of golden Brazilian sands. The first phase is the release of a limited number of freehold prime building plots with full planning permission that have strong potential for short term capital appreciation giving early investors the option of either selling on the land after a number of years, or building their dream home in the sun.

Plots range in size from 360 to 2,500m2 and outline planning consent has been granted for buildings for residential occupancy. Built up areas can cover an area up to 30% of the full plot site area and there are a number of pre-approved home designs to choose from. Brazil allows unrestricted ownership of land and property by foreign nationals and all property there is freehold.

This wonderful coastal sanctuary and development opportunity covers 168.5 acres in a large L-shape plot with a beach which is approximately 355 metres in length and it has been divided into individual building plots. The vision is to create a low density, secure, gated community, built to blend in sympathetically with the local surroundings where there will be swimming pools, restaurants and boutique shops.

Cocoa Beach is located on the southern edge of the quaint town of Belmonte, on the Discovery Coast which is where Pedro Cabral, the Portuguese explorer, first landed in Brazil on April 22nd, 1500. Belmonte is in the state of Bahia and it is a thriving agricultural town situated on the banks of the river Jequitinhonha where it meets the Atlantic Ocean and it is fringed by the rainforest. It has a wide array of existing amenities and attractions including schools, hospitals, bars, restaurants and shops with a new shopping centre planned as part of a regeneration programme. The town and its amenities will be important to Cocoa Beach investors as they provide local stability and potential.

Tim Morgan, managing director of Emerging Real Estate, commented; 'There's no doubt that the global economy is playing a big part in how people invest and investors are becoming more and more cautious. The high price of property and adverse credit conditions across the globe mean that many investors are re-analysing their strategies and are less likely to layout large capital sums especially as rental incomes cannot be guaranteed to cover mortgage repayments.

Tim concluded; This means that new options such as land plots, with their low entry cost and potential long term gains, are the perfect choice for those who are looking to take a more conservative approach.'
