Our Community Strength & What’s Possible When We Move Together
How our collective reputation, commitment, and track record unlock opportunities no individual investor could ever secure alone.
Hey guys, Mikkel here,
Every week, I bring you deals, insights, opportunities and off-market projects that nobody else has access to…
…and many of you assume it’s because I happen to know the right people, or because I travel constantly, or because I’ve spent years building relationships with developers, politicians, builders, economists, attorneys, and every other professional who plays a role in shaping a market.
And yes, all of that is true.
But it is not the full story.
The real reason we get access to the best deals in Brazil (and why we can consistently negotiate prices, terms, incentives, and entry points that are unheard of) comes down to something far more powerful:
The collective purchasing power of this community.
Most people underestimate what that actually means, so allow me to explain:
Most investors approach real estate individually - one buyer negotiating for one unit, one contract, one deal at a time.
Developers know this.
Banks know this.
Brokers know this.
…and, thus, the system is built around it.
But what happens when you walk into a negotiation not as one buyer but as a unified group capable of allocating millions of dollars in a single shot?
Everything changes.
The pricing changes.
The terms change.
The developer’s risk profile changes.
The timeline changes.
The financing changes.
The construction certainty changes.
…and that’s what most people don’t see.
Because when we bring a new opportunity to you, whether it's a plot of 20-unit beachside villas or a short-term rental project built to service the tourism boom, 99% of the work has already been done behind the scenes.
We’ve already identified the market we'll serve and have ample research to support our thesis.
We’ve already reviewed the plans.
We’ve already negotiated terms.
We’ve already taken the risk off their shoulders.
And how do we do that?
By leveraging the fact that our community doesn’t buy a unit or two…
We buy out entire projects.
Not metaphorically… literally.
When a developer knows they have the inventory spoken for before even breaking ground, they:
Don’t need bridge financing.
Don’t need expensive bank loans.
Don’t need to pre-sell 30%, 50%, or 70% before breaking ground.
Don’t need to spend six figures on marketing.
Don’t need to suffer through a 24-month sales cycle just to start construction.
Don’t need to beg local buyers to “please come back and check out the show suite.”
WE compress the timeline.
WE remove their uncertainty.
WE eliminate their financing stress.
WE guarantee momentum.
WE ensure every unit will be purchased.
WE allow them to build without risk.
This is the force that shapes every special deal you see in this newsletter.
This is the reason we get “early bird” pricing when everyone else gets retail.
This is the reason we get pre-launch access when others get waitlists.
This is the reason we get special configurations, corner units and oceanfront units.
This is the reason developers love working with us.
...it’s because we don’t behave like individual investors.
We behave like a consortium: a coordinated, high-trust, high-execution group capable of moving capital at speed and scale.
My partners at IMPAR know this value, and they know exactly what our community means to them.
Our involvement is the difference between a builder needing an expensive line of credit or a high-interest loan to fund the project, or moving forward debt-free (which my development partner (IMPAR) in Brazil is, by the way).
This is what gives us negotiating power, preferential treatment, better pricing, and ultimately strategic leverage.
When you can guarantee a developer that every unit will be sold, they are willing to meet you on terms and conditions that normal investors couldn't negotiate in a thousand years.
That is the true power of this community.
This is the true power of the community you’re a part of.
…but with great power comes great responsibility.
Now… we need to talk about something that is absolutely critical to keeping this engine running as it is.
Collective purchasing power is one of the most valuable assets we have… but it also requires collective discipline.
Here’s what I mean:
When we walk into a negotiation and tell a developer, “we’ll take all the units,” we are making a commitment as a community.
We are promising that we will follow through and do as we agreed.
99% of you do exactly that.
When you take action and begin the process of securing a rental unit in Brazil’s Northeast:
You wire your deposits.
You sign your contracts.
You communicate clearly.
You do the work.
You honour your commitments.
This is why we’re able to continue getting deals nobody else gets… because our partners trust us.
They know that when we say we’re going to take an entire project’s worth of inventory off their hands, we’re going to do just that.
BUT..
It only takes one person breaking their commitment to affect everyone.
When someone signs a contract and disappears, reserves a unit and doesn’t follow through, or asks to hold inventory, it hurts us all.
When someone treats these deals like a public listing instead of a private agreement, it makes future negotiations harder for all of us.
Your individual commitment matters more than you think.
When you follow through, you strengthen the trust developers have in us.
When you don’t, you weaken the very leverage that makes these deals possible.
This isn’t a guilt message, nor is it finger-pointing.
This is simply the truth of how powerful this community has become... and the responsibility that comes with that power.
The reason you’re getting beachfront units for 80 or 90 grand that should be selling for $130,000 is not that Brazil is “cheap.”
It’s because developers know:
Our community is as serious as they come, and working with our collective allows them to earn the profit margins they need as a business while still getting us products priced far below market value.
That’s your reputation.
That’s the value you bring to this table.
So if you ever wondered why I take commitment seriously…
It’s because the deals we get depend on it.
The Truth About Financing… and why it’s one of the biggest advantages you’re being handed
Far too many people gloss over the financing options I’ve secured for you guys as if they were some minor footnote.
If you actually understood what it really represents, you’d shake your head at how absurdly rare it is in Brazil (or in any emerging market undergoing a boom like the Northeast, for that matter).
I’m talking about the financing.
I am talking about the type of developer-backed financing that international buyers almost never get access to… especially at the terms we have.
Frankly, most people breeze right past the fact that if they walked into Brazil tomorrow as a foreigner and tried to get financing on a pre-construction unit in the very same growth corridor we operate in… you would be laughed out of the building.
Not because you’re not qualified.
Not because you don’t have the money.
Not because you’re not trustworthy.
But because developers simply don’t extend financing like this to outsiders (this isn’t unique to Brazil, either; this holds true around the world, no matter how “established” the market is).
I’ve been around the block a time or two, and entering a market as a foreigner most often comes with no perks whatsoever.
In fact, it’s normally the opposite.
Typically, the deal terms foreigners get are poor relative to the terms locals get.
Not us.
So, when it comes to securing financing directly from the developers… it’s absolutely not something they do for most people.
If anything, most developers demand foreign clients put more money down and make faster payments… they need to de-risk themselves and hedge against the little recourse they have against a foreign buyer who could renege on a deal even after signing the contract.
If they were dealing with a local, they would bring the issue to the courts; however, the time and energy of doing so with a foreigner is far too big a headache to bother with.
If you’ve never done this on your own, you don’t know what normal looks like, so I fully understand if this is news to you…
But you need to understand:
The only reason you have access to financing at such a low premium is because of the credibility our community has built over the years of showing up, investing, and honouring commitments.
Full stop.
This isn’t a “perk.”
This isn’t a “nice to have.”
This is a signal about the strength and seriousness of our community.
Because here’s how it really works behind the scenes:
Developers like IMPAR only offer financing like this when they know, with certainty, that the people coming from our community are dependable.
They know people like us won’t disappear, play silly games, or overextend ourselves financially to the point of missing payments…
You have to remember that every time financing is extended to you, it increases the developer's financial risk profile.
…it’s them carrying a level of risk on their balance sheet that they could easily avoid if they just sold to local buyers.
They are only going for this us because the relationship and the track record we have built are strong enough to justify the risk.
For years, we’ve proven ourselves, and that track record becomes leverage.
The kind of leverage that benefits YOU directly… even if you’ve never bought anything in Brazil before.
As a direct result of the reputation this community has built, you can secure a unit in one of the fastest-growing regions of Brazil with a small down payment, quarterly payments spread over the duration of the construction timeline, and the balance (if any) only due at key handover.
Try getting that in a foreign country (with or without an existing relationship) on your own.
Try walking into IMPAR’s office as a solo buyer from North America and asking for financing.
Good luck.
Financing is more than a payment structure… it’s a stamp of trust.
It’s an unspoken acknowledgement that you are not just some random buyer.
The reality is that securing financing at these terms is proof that the developers see you the way I see you: as a serious, capable investor who honours commitments.
AND when you honour those commitments, the entire group benefits:
We secure better pricing.
We get first access.
We lock in premier units.
We build long-term relationships that make each subsequent project easier, cheaper, and more lucrative than the last.
But, again, it cuts both ways.
When people sign contracts and don’t follow through, it chips away at the trust we’ve built.
It forces the developer to be more conservative.
It tightens the financing terms.
It reduces our negotiating leverage, and ultimately, it affects the pricing and availability for every future buyer in this community.
I need you guys to keep this in mind.
Being a part of this community and moving in unison like a collective means we have a standard to uphold and a reputation to maintain.
The benefit is yours, however, so is the burden.
So when you see financing offered on a project, don’t treat it like some standard line item…
Recognize it for what it is: a signal of trust and acknowledgement of the fact that you’re investing alongside a community whose reputation precedes you (in the best possible way).
DEAL OF THE WEEK: A Fully Diversified Portfolio… In One Move
“Black Friday” isn’t a cultural phenomenon here the way it is in North America.
Serious developers don’t run “holiday promotions,” they don’t offer discounts, and they certainly don’t bundle multiple units with free furniture packages as if they were running some department-store flash sale.
That’s just not how the game is played here.
So when I told my partners at IMPAR that I wanted to put together something extraordinary for Black Friday, the first words out of their mouths were exactly what I expected:
“Mikkel, this is too much. These units will sell regardless. We don’t need to discount anything.”
…and they were right… we don’t need to.
These projects are in one of the hottest growth corridors in the entire country.
The demand is already there.
The domestic tourism market alone could absorb everything they’re building.
…but that wasn’t the point…
The point was that I knew what you would expect during Black Friday week.
I knew that our community deserved something special, and so I pushed, and I negotiated, and I dug my heels in harder than I ever have on a deal like this.
I made it clear that if we were going to do a Black Friday offer, it needed to be a big one and not some token gesture…
…and I got the exact deal I knew would pique your interest.
This community has earned it; thus, my going to bat for you is more than a pleasure.
We landed on an offer that the developer would never have put on the table under normal circumstances… a deal that only exists because of the credibility, seriousness, and consistency that you’ve collectively demonstrated.
So, today, here is what I’ve got for you (because you’ve earned it):
1 Long-Term Rental + 2 Short-Term Units + Free Furniture Packages for All Three
In one move, you secure:
1 Porto Residence unit (long-term rental, stable income, predictable occupancy).
2 Porto Suites units (short-term, high-yield, tourist-driven cashflow engines).
FREE furniture packages for all three (a $37,000 savings).

Porto Residences

Porto Suites
This isn’t just a random bundle of inventory cobbled together.
This is an instant investment strategy.
Portfolio allocation matters immensely, and yet, even seasoned investors often go about it the wrong way.
Most investors build portfolios backwards.
They buy whatever is marketed the loudest… then stress about vacancy.
They chase yield… then panic when cash flow swings.
They try to rely on short-term bookings… then fear seasonality.
They build a collection of properties… not a strategy.
What we’ve created here flips that on its head.
Diversification is not something you buy by accident.
It’s something you design.
…and this week we’ve done that for you.
We negotiated something special.
Something rare.
Something that requires commitment on both sides.
This is not a “hold it for me until I’m back from vacation”.
This is a “hey Michael (my partner at IMPAR), love the offer. Let me know how I can go about sending my reservation fee”. ([email protected]).
A $1,000 reservation fee proves you’re serious.
It locks your bundle.
It allows the developer to pull the units from inventory.
It protects our relationship with IMPAR.
It protects the deals we can offer in future newsletters.
It protects the reputation we’ve built for years.
This isn’t about the money; it’s about the signal you’re sending that you are serious and that you want to be locked in to this deal.
This is a complete, strategically designed portfolio; one Porto Residence unit, built for long-term stability, combined with two Porto Suites units, engineered for short-term, high-yield cash flow.
…and yes, all three come with furniture packages included, meaning you walk into immediate rentability with zero upfront setup costs and a total savings of $37,000.
This is exactly what most investors wish they could build… but almost none ever
do (most people don’t build portfolios intentionally; they build them reactively).
Most people buy whatever looks shiny in the moment, then spend years trying to reverse-engineer a strategy around a pile of properties that don’t talk to each other, don’t complement each other, and don’t protect them from anything that actually matters, like vacancy fluctuations, seasonality, cash-flow volatility, or market swings.
This portfolio we have designed gives you:
Long-term stability
Short-term yield
Multiple revenue streams
Protection from seasonality
Protection from market cycles
Protection from tourist fluctuation
Total cash price for all 3 units: $263,000
Available bundles: 4 only
Reservation fee: $1,000 (non-refundable and required to lock your spot)
Deadline: November 30 at midnight, sharp.
If you’re ready, send Michael an email ([email protected]) and include the information listed below. Michael will get back to you right away with the next steps so you can send your reservation fee and lock this in.
Your Full Name
Your Phone Number
Address
Passport or ID Number
Floor preferences for each unit
Before we go deeper, understand this clearly: we have only four of these bundles available, and they are only available until November 30th at midnight to get your name in the queue (as long as you sent your email before the 30th at midnight and promptly send the $1000 reservation fee after receiving instructions, this deal will be honoured.
True diversification (the kind that protects you in the real world) is about blending different types of revenue streams, different types of demand drivers, and different tenant bases into a single portfolio.
That’s what this special bundle offer is.
The Porto Residence unit anchors the entire thing - long-term rental income is the backbone of a solid, stress-free offshore investment strategy because it’s predictable.
It creates a base level of income you can count on every month of the year, regardless of outside factors that may impact the short-term rental market.
So, on top of that stability, you stack the two Porto Suites units (the short-term rental machines) designed to serve the consistent, growing demand backed by one of the strongest domestic tourism drivers in all of Latin America.
This mix of a predictable, long-term foundation paired with high-yield, high-demand short-term assets is the definition of a portfolio intentionally structured to handle volatility and capitalize on growth at the same time.
This is what a serious portfolio looks like.
Plus, when you secure this deal, my partners at IMPAR will add an internal connecting door for you, instantly expanding your rentability by making your units more attractive to larger families and groups.
The total entry price for this fully diversified, fully furnished, fully managed three-property portfolio is just $263,000 USD.
Three furnished rental properties in a booming market for just over 250k… in a BOOMING market… it’s a no-brainer, folks.
…and again, we can only make four portfolio bundles available.
If this is the kind of portfolio you know you should have built years ago but never had the access, the network, or the support to pull together on your own, then your next step is simple:
Send Michael an email to [email protected] with your name, address, passport number, and your preferred floor options, and Michael will lock in your bundle the moment your $1,000 reservation fee is received.
Move now. You have until November 30 at 11:59 pm to send Michael an email at [email protected].
Speak soon,
Mikkel
