As there are so many developments on the market at present, as well as so many investment opportunities to be had in Brazil at the moment, it is important to note the following 10 reasons why Pipa Hills stands out from all the rest:

1. Pipa, the privileged location of Pipa Hills, is just 45-60 minutes from Natal city centre and is considered the most up market beach-town of the entire North Eastern Brazil.
2. Pipa is nowadays one of the most promising beaches in Brazil in terms of investment potential; In the coming 5 years, 2 mega golf resorts will be developed only 5 minutes from Pipa; a realistic future guarantee that Pipa will be visited by an ever increasing amounts of tourists. What makes Pipa a unique place already today, is that this charming beach village already attracts the “high end” of the market and along with coming high quality golf projects close by, Pipa will further confirm its status as the “jewel” of the North East of Brazil.
3. Perfectly positioned for the future; when international charter tourism started in Natal in 1998, there were only two weekly international charter flights. Last year, this number was already 25. Once the new airport is ready in June 2010, this number will be significantly higher as it is estimated to bring 5 million tourists per year to Natal, and a big part of the “high end” segment will head straight to Pipa.
4. Pipa is not only dependant on international tourists as Pipa is visited by wealthy Brazilians all year. During the Brazilian summer (December-March), it is virtually impossible to get a room in Pipa without pre-booking. Last summer, Natal received six daily domestic charter flights. As the Brazilian economy continues growing, so does the solid investment potential in Pipa Hills.
5. Excellent rental potential; well managed hotels in Pipa work on yearly average occupation rates of 70%. Pipa Hills is the first luxury villa development in Pipa and along with further growth in tourism arrivals to Pipa; Pipa Hills ticks all the right boxes for providing solid rental returns.
6. Pipa is surrounded by a nature reserve area which sets limits on the construction in Pipa; Further, Pipa will remain a low density area as buildings can only be 7 meters high. Bad for developers, but perfect for the few privileged property owners in Pipa as future supply of property in Pipa will be severely limited. This will have a positive impact on property prices in Pipa Hills.
7. Land prices in Pipa are increasing fast and prime land is already selling for 100€/m2. The developer of Pipa Hills bought the land several years ago and has only built 13% of the land; this is great news for property owners in Pipa Hills as no other future development will be able to offer such a low building density. As Pipa clearly attracts quality tourists, this again is good news for property owners in Pipa Hills.
8. Pipa Hills is built to European standards and build quality is of high standard. The people that have bought properties in Pipa Hills are lawyers, doctors and successful business people. Units will be delivered fully furnished and equipped, ready to move in or let out on completion.
9. Pipa has been voted for having the best night life in the North East of Brazil; Pipa is the most cosmopolitan beach town in the North East and benefits from more than 30 international restaurants and all the facilities for having a great holiday. As more development will realize around Pipa, Pipa will still be the area where all the “action is”. This is yet another factor that makes Pipa Hills a unique place as future demand for Pipa Hills, whether for “accommodation” or “personal residential use”, is truly without limits.
10. Extensive facilities on site; Bar and barbeque area, 3 communal swimming pools, stunning lagoon area and big green areas as only 13% of the plot is built in Pipa Hills.
