It is not a house. It is a piece of land. Bought in the area where they plant apples and furniture for export and make pulp and paper also for export I thought those economic activities would make the city boom nicely and I would resell the property for a nice profit. It did for a while and greedy Elmat decided to hold it. Real up against the USD and Elmat holding. Then last year, the major’s brother made an offer getting 200% profit (in dollar terms) in the 9 years and I still held it. Then the Brazilian Real went too much up and the apples, pulp and paper and furniture industries tanked. Could not compete with the Real that high. Property market taked. And I am lucky to get what I paid for 10 years ago. Meanwhile I see Curitiba (which is 1.6million and not a 34.000 inhabitant city) going up nicely and want to download the lot. I told my wife, not selling! They have almost sold everything around it. It remains only mine ad two other that the owner says is not for sale. Thinking about building in it once Experiment goes to college and no longer need to be in Curitiba
