Introducing Ecocity Brasil:

Destined to become the largest Eco-friendly residential tourist resort in Brazil.

Located in the Parnaíba River Delta in Northeast Brazil, - one of the world's most bio-diverse and beautiful regions.
The Ecocity Brasil site consists of 20,000 acres (80 million m2) of which approximately 60% is environmentally protected and will be developed in up to 30 separate developments.

One of the first planned developments at Ecocity Brasil, an area of 1,171 acres (4.74 million m2), will be developed byEcoland Brasil whois offering to sell a limited amount of land to private individuals in order to raise additional development capital.

Once planning permission is achieved, estimated in 2012 or soon after, the Development Company is offering a credit return of R$97 (£35 approx.) per m2 which equates to a 209% return for the purchase of a residential building plot, or a cash return of R$71 (£26 approx) per m2 which equates to a 126% return once plot sales commence to the public.

Ecocity Brazil Master Plan

The Conceptual Master Plan for the overall development of Ecocity Brasil was approved by the State of Piauí in January 2008 for the 80million m2 site (20,000 acre) permitting 'urban expansion' i.e. it is zoned or classified to permit 'urban development'.

Planning permission for each of the separate developments within Ecocity Brasil will be sought and granted on an individual basis always within the guidelines stipulated within the Conceptual Master Plan.

Ecocity Brazil Planning

Ecoland Brasil and its team of local and international experts are currently preparing a Detailed Master Plan for Ecoland Brasil's Development. It will offer a variety of building plot sizes supporting detached, semi-detached and multi-unit residential housing, hotels, commercial outlets and a wide variety of recreational facilities including an 18-hole golf course, driving range and more.

The Detailed Master Plan is expected to be submitted for approval in 2011. It is anticipated that full and final approval will be achieved within 12 months following submission.
