Bonjour,
J'aimerais acheter un terrain ou une petite maison vers Fortaleza ou San Salvador (j'y suis allée 1 fois, il y a longtemps !) ou dans un autre endroit sympa
J'ai surfé sur les forums mais je n'ai trouvé que des questions/réponses datant de ... 2008 !!! les choses ont peut-être évoluées dans le bon sens depuis :)
Question sécurité, est-il toujours aussi peu recommandé de se trouver hors des grandes villes ? bord de mer par exemple ! peut-on laisser plusieurs mois une maison non habitée sans qu'elle soit squattée ou vandalisée ?
Quelles sont à ce jour les difficultés d'acheter pour un étranger ? véracité des documents de propriété par exemple ? dois-je passer par un avocat obligatoirement ? de plus je ne parle pas la langue !! sacré handicap 😕
Si des français sur place peuvent me guider ou me conseiller, ils seront les bienvenus 🙂
Merci à tous de votre aide
Bonjour,
Depuis une fièvre immobilière les biens ont considérablement augmentés .
- le problème des maisons isolées ou seule sur un terrain est toujours d'actualité .
Elle sera vandalisée - et si vous avez un gardien( caseiro ) les frais mensuel deviennent important
Avec les augmentations de salaires depuis 2003 ( compter au mini 1000 ou 1500 réais ) suivant le niveau de vie de la région .
- ces maisons ou sitios de WE sont en général de construction plus que basique , qui ne correspond pas au standard exemple pas de fondation ou vide sanitaire = humidité et salpêtre dans tous les murs .
- dans les environs des grandes villes ( de 40 à 150 km ) on trouve des condominiums de maisons de WE en campagne ou bord de mer donc plus sécurisé car gardiennage et taxe mensuelle moins importante que d'un caseiro .
Achat d'un terrain vide représente plus de risque qu terrain plus maison .
Il y a beaucoup de chose à vérifier ici, sens de l honneur et honneté n étant pas dans les gêne brésiliens .
Il vous faudra l expertise d'un agent immo ou avocat ( attention les deux ne sont pas non plus des gages de travail bien fait )
Il faudrait à ce moment là ce rapprocher de Français qui connaissnt un pro de confiance .
Voir sur site ABC latinaforum.
Solution trouvé un de ces grands condominiums dans la verte . En plus la situation juridique du bien serait plus facile à vérifier .
Merci Jaganda pour ces précieuses informations :) mais comment trouver un condomimium dans la vente et pourquoi l'achat d'un terrain seul poserait-il plus de problèmes ??
Je pense aller en juin à Fortaleza, pouvez-vous éventuellement m'indiquer un point de chute ou bien le contact de français installés la-bas ?
Merci de prendre le temps de me répondre🙂
bonjour
pour les fazendas ( fermes ) et terrains jamais construit il y a souvent des pb de transaction faux documents pas le bon proprio , bien non enregistre etc
ainsi dans l ordre difficile vers facile
fazendas et terrains non construits .- maison avec terrain isole - maison dans condominium fermé - appartements.

Bonsoir Jaganda
Un grand merci pour toutes ces explications et mises en garde ! j'avoue que mon enthousiasme est un peu touché :( mais je vais aller plus avant et comme vous dites d'ici juin, j'ai le temps de me faire une idée plus précise à défaut de me débrouiller en brésilien :) Si cela ne vous ennuie pas je me permettrai de vous recontacter si besoin Merci encore de votre aide :)

Vous pouvez me contacter sans problème .
Vous pouvez naviger , et voir un peu les prix et les coins intéressants .
Il faut malheureusement au brésil ne pas foncer tête en avant , que ce soit pour les formalités achat , la localisation . Vos besoin . En France on va au notaire qui assure la légalité de la transaction ici non .
Et la sécurité - et toute transaction avec un brésilien mêmetransaction minime vous devez avoir tous vos systèmes radars en fonctionnement . Ce qui n'empêche pas de continuer sur vos idées .
L année prochaine profitez pour fairune escapade décontractée , voire faire les 2 régions , passer des vacances , avoir des contacta ce les brésiliens , éventuellement faire des recherches immo. Sans vouloir repartir à tout prix avec un tas de pierres .
Allez sur ABC latina forum. Regardez les archives et posts pour vous familiariser avec les écrits des intervenants
Le portugais du brésil est assez facile le vrai portugais du Portugal une horreur pour tout l monde .
Je crois que cela existe online sur 6 mois ou 1 an avec Assimil ou tout apprendre cm Et souvent
Des promos . Cours portugais du brésil ( brésilien )qui est en réalité au niveau vocabulaire et grammaire la même chose que portugais le grand plus la prononciation .
Bien moi je n'avais pas trop fait attention à votre nickname Anita pensais à 'adresser à un homme
Et en plus le 34
Le seul lien que j'ai avec le 34 est mon frangin qui doit être depuis les années 70 sr Montpellier , mon neveu également .. Mais il ont migré un peu de lattes et Maurin sur vic la Gardiolle
Mon nickname en réalité est issue d 'un plantage au départ. JAngada La barcasse fond plat du Nordeste et pour moi français cela semblait + facile de dire JAGANDA .

Bonsoir Jaganda,
He oui !!! je suis de sexe féminin !!! :) mais nous avons donc un point commun : Montpellier !!! Très charmante ville de province, près de la mer et pas loin de la montagne. J'ai été séduite par son caractère et sa situation privilégiée mais hélas elle se transforme à vue d'oeil sous les constructions anarchiques des promoteurs. Les immeubles poussent comme des champignons, les uns à côté des autres et bientôt Lattes sera côte à côte avec la tentaculaire Montpellier !! c'est un peu la raison pour laquelle je recherche un petit coin de paradis où me poser de temps en temps ! je sais on pense que l'herbe est plus verte ailleurs, mais il existe quand même des endroits plus sympathiques que d'autres :) Je ne me suis pas encore consacrée aux recherches mais je vais m'y mettre :)
PS : bien, l'explication du pseudo !

Bonjour Anita,
Je cherche à acheter actuellement un terrain du côter du Ceara au Brésil. Je souhaitais ainsi savoir si vous aviez finalement acheter quelque choses ? et si oui quelles ont été vos démarches et les difficultés rencontrées. Merci beaucoup de votre réponse.
Je m'adresse aussi à l'ensemble de la communauté pour avoir des renseignements sur les démarches à faire en 2016 pour l'achat d'un terrain au Brésil.
Merci à tous.

Perso je verrais avec les chambres de commerces fr et si ils sont nuls.Voir les anglais et le consulat qui ont certainement des infos sur les problèmes et arnaques qui se font là bas.
Quand j'étais à Rio.J'ai eu vent de quelques arnaques.
Bonne chance

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
Thanks so much for your help and advice! ☺️

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄

Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College.

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
Hello. We’re a couple with an 11-year-old daughter and we’re looking for a good deal on a bar and/or restaurant in the tourist areas of Playa del Carmen, Tulum, or Mérida. If anyone knows of one or is on the ground and can give us some great tips, we’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Safe travels.
