Who hasn't, at some time in their lives, looked at the value of property somewhere and thought to themselves "if only I had bought a piece of property there back in (insert year) when prices were low, just think how much money I would have made". Well, no more. Buy now in Brazil and in 2...5...10 years time you will be counting your profit leaving others to wonder why they didn't invest too.
