My Travels to Brazil
Posted by:

I have had the great fortune to travel to Brazil twice now through my work with Hall and Hall. We have worked towards the sale of several properties in this fascinating country but the most significant in my mind is a very special place called “Fazenda Santo Antonio do Paraiso”.
This holding includes nearly 400 square miles (255,000 acres) and is located in the Pantanal – our planet’s largest wetland (10x the size of Florida’s Everglades). With over 650 species of birds, almost 100 mammal species, 165 reptiles and over 260 fish it is home to a more diverse population of wildlife than I have seen anywhere in the world. This is to say nothing of the flora!
The Pantanal is also home to a rich culture of cowboys known as the Pantaneiros. These men craft their own tack from leather they tan from their own livestock and travel through caiman infested waters on horseback. Their way of life has been virtually the same for the last 200+ years and is akin to the days of the Old West in the United States. I could have spent months documenting this amazing place in photographs. Nevertheless, I was pleased to at least have the time that I did.

Two key ingredients that make a fishing property ‘investment quality’ are water and privacy. Accessibility is another important factor. If one has to charter a helicopter or a floatplane to access a property, then one has to discount the value that relates to the quality of the water or exclusivity of the property. If it is difficult to get into a piece of property, buyers will typically insist on a substantial discount or select a more accessible property…
