Brazil‘s real estate market, as of early 2008, was in a buyer’s market because there are more homes on the market than there are buyers. The demand for property is expected to increase by approximately 900,000 units per year. Brazil’s economy is strong, fueled by agriculture and oil exports, and its economy grew by 5.3% in 2007. On Nov. 8, 2007, it was announced that a new oil field–the Tupi oil field–had been discovered 155 miles off the coast of southern Brazil. It is the largest oil field discovery since 2000.
