Greetings from Rancho Santana, Nicaragua. I’m joined here by 12 of your fellow members. As you know, I have been on the road for the last five weeks scouting opportunities in Berlin, Brazil, Panama…and now Nicaragua.
Four days ago, I alerted you to an opportunity in Fortaleza. This development, called Beach Class, is my top pre-construction pick in Brazil right now—a chance for you to buy units with less than $900 down…and a way to enjoy rental yields as high as 15% per year. I have reserved four units for myself.
I’m covering a lot of ground on your behalf. Tomorrow I travel to the capital city of one of the world’s economic power houses to chase rental yields…then straight to what I consider to be the best beachfront buy in the planet right now…and from there to scout a relatively undiscovered area in the country that topped International Living’s Global Retirement Index for five years running…and finally to one of my favorite beach retreats to sort through all the opportunities.
Along the southern Pacific coast of Nicaragua are rocky outcrops and pounding surf…the ocean views are magnificent…and the sunsets here are the best in the world.
Provisional Itinerary for the Real Estate Trend Alert Brazil Expedition

We’re focusing on Brazil’s northeast coast at just the right time—Bloomberg has heavily reported on Brazil’s soaring fortunes in the past couple of weeks:
One of the opportunities I told you about when you joined Real Estate Trend Alert was the income potential in Brazilian wind farms. But I’ve learned of a way you can reduce the cost of entry, and possibly get financing for this investment.
Panama’s visitor numbers are growing at a much faster rate than its supply of hotel beds. Visitors are coming from the Americas and Europe for vacation, to buy real estate, to do business, or to work. Multinationals are setting up regional headquarters in Panama, and the big infrastructure projects are drawing in skilled labor and contractors.
