Islands Around South America
South America brings to mind earthy pleasures like dancing the samba, lolling about the beach in scanty swimwear and eating spicy local cuisine. From the Atlantic waters of the Brazilian coast to the Pacific coast of Chile, South American islands offer beauty, affordability and a certain exoticism that comes from lying somewhat off the beaten path. South America includes many islands, most of which belong to countries on the continent. In South America, the majority of private islands for sale are found in Brazil, usually located near Rio de Janeiro or in the Bahia region.
South America’s economic and political climate remains slightly unstable; the physical climate in many parts of South America also requires endurance. Due to a history of high inflation in nearly all South American countries, interest rates remain high and investment low. However, island ownership in South America can be rewarding for its rich culture and some of the most beautiful island properties in the world. If you decide to pursue island ownership in South America, retaining a reputable lawyer is strongly recommended.
