What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Brazil?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Brazil is like. They answered...
"Expat homes and apartments in Brazil tend to offer a comfortable and stylish living experience, with modern furnishings, air conditioning, and plenty of natural light. Many expats living in Brazil opt for spacious apartments in exclusive residential buildings in Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo, with amenities such as swimming pools, gyms, and doormen to provide security and convenience. Expat homes and apartments may also feature balconies with gorgeous views, terraces, and extra storage spaces," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Brazil.
"There are 41 units within the resort, mostly owned by foreigners. There are a few owned by Brazilians but the others are mostly from Europe or UK. Each of the units vary in size but 150m2 is about average for the villas with 2 stories. Ours has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a roof veranda that includes a Jacuzzi. Pipa Beleza Resort is one of the leading and most modern resort in the area and several more have or are being built as we speak," commented one expat who made the move to Praia da Pipa, Brazil.
