What Is The Possibility of EcoHouse Brazil Bringing Minha Casa Minha Vida to the Mid West
The North Eastern states of Brazil have already seen numerous high quality Minha Casa Minha Vida developments launch over the past 4 years, mainly thanks to the North Eastern state of Rio Grande do Norte being the South American headquarters of Anglo-Brazilian property Giant EcoHouse Group.
Now other states are hoping that EcoHouse will launch more of their superior quality social housing developments throughout the country and with the Brazilian government expected to extend the minha casa minha vida programme for another few years at least this may now be possible.
EcoHouse Brazil are however tight lipped as to where exactly they will launched their next social housing project but the Mid Western state of Mato Grosso do Sul has been a state that has come up in interviews and press releases on a number of occasions. Here's a little more information about the recently founded state.
Mato Grosso do Sul (In English this translates as "thick forest of the south") is an interesting mid-western Brazilian state. It’s unusual because it is so recent, having been founded only in 1977. That was when it was split away from Matto Grosso, its similarly-named and larger neighbour to the north. Mato Grosso do Sul (‘MGS’) is sparsely populated.
It has only two and a half million people, about a third of whom live in the capital, Campo Grande. That’s not very many people for a state with about the same land area as Germany (350,000 sq Km). MGS borders the adjacent countries of Bolivia to the west and also Paraguay to the southwest. This is as well as the other Brazilian states of Mato Grosso, Goias, Minas Gerais, Sao Paolo and Parana which are all next to it
The countryside makes up the vast majority of the land and it’s regarded by the many tourists each year as being both varied and beautiful. For example the popular Pantanal lowlands include forests, savannahs, open pastures and farms. This area is regarded as the largest ‘flooded’ lowland area on earth. In fact the name Pantanal was considered seriously as the name for the new state when it was created 35 years ago, before the decision was made to have a variation of its ‘parent’ state’s name. Another title considered at the time was Maracaju, which refers to the name of the main mountain range which runs from north to south across the territory.
In the so-called ‘Cerrado’ areas, mostly in the south and central regions, most farming people are Brazilians of either Portuguese or German descent, with some ethnic Italians too. Most of Mato Grosso do Sul’s economy is based one way or another on either service industries (46%) or on farming, both large and small scale. This latter mostly consists of crops (soybeans are important) and cattle raising and related occupations. Both of these are helped by the numerous tributaries of the mighty Parana River which criss-cross the state. There’s also an industrial and manufacturing sector which accounts for about one fifth of the state economy. Altogether, though, MGS accounts for only about one per cent of Brazil’s GDP. By the way, the general climate of MGS is mostly humid and warm but occasional variations at both ends of the temperature scale do happen.
The EcoHouse Group have offices in Brazil, the UK, North America, the Middle East, Singapore, malaysia and China. They have been constructing Minha Casa Minha Vida homes since 2009, and are reducing the housing shortage and giving people the chance to make Secure Investments through a secure government run programme.
Now other states are hoping that EcoHouse will launch more of their superior quality social housing developments throughout the country and with the Brazilian government expected to extend the minha casa minha vida programme for another few years at least this may now be possible.

Teresina Brazil welcomes the Minha Casa Minha Vida Programme
The city of Teresina has the distinction of being the only State capital (of Piaui state in this case) in the North East which is not actually situated on the Atlantic coast. In fact this city of 800,000 people is well inland, about 350 Km from the ocean. It is younger than many other Brazilian towns and cities. Teresina was only founded in 1852, as a planned city (the first planned city in the country). It originally had a different name, Vila Nova do Poty (in English 'New Town of Poty'...referring to the Poty River). Later in the century the settlement was renamed Teresina in honour of the wife of Pedro II the Emperor of Brazil, the Empress Teresa Cristina, the town is now seeing an increased from international investors keen to further develop the city and surrounding areas.
Teresina was (and still is) the naturally hottest city in Brazil and one of the two or three most lighting-prone places on earth. The geography of the district is influenced by its location in a transition zone between the Amazon rainforest and the north-eastern plains. Both scrub coverage and distribution of mid-size trees are plentiful. The overall climate is tropical with just two main seasons per year, the wet and the dry. Temperature range in Teresina is from 20 degrees C up to 35, with an average of 27 making it ideal for urban development.
The economy of the city is currently based on the processing and/or manufacturing of a number of products. These include chemicals and pharmaceuticals, ceramics, furniture, bicycles and soft drinks (to name but a few). The building and construction industry has also surged in the last couple of decades, as can be seen by the large number of high-rise buildings in the downtown or city-centre areas. For this reason it has the nickname of 'Town of Towers' (or at least the Portuguese equivalent of the title). Construction in and around the city continues to this day as the city catches the attention of foreign investors and developers.
This especially-designed inland city has two features that are immediately obvious to visitors. One is the logical grid system of the city centre. The other is related, it's the presence of the many thousands of mango and other trees which line the streets, giving the whole place a very 'green' feel. In addition, locals and visitors alike love the fact that Teresina is one of the 'safest' urban centres in Brazil, with rates of crime well under the national average making it very popular with overseas investors. Teresina is not just the capital of Piaui state but almost completely dominates it, not just administratively but economically and culturally too. Not only is forty percent of the state's GDP dependant on the capital but it's also very much the hub of musical and entertainment aspects too. You can access a blog about this by clicking on the translatable site Agenda Cultural Teresina.
Every year in the summer the city hosts 'Encontro Nacional de Folguedos'. This is Brazil's national festival of folklore and is a highly-prestigious celebration of Culture, Music, Dance and Food from right across the country. All these features of this vibrant and unusual city make the place highly unique and interesting in many ways. Needless to say, this growing metropolis provides an attractive option for those considering short term property investment, as there is an abundance of land ideally located for housing developments, this has attracted a number of property developers from both Brazil and overseas who are prepared to build minha casa minha vida housing developments in the area, both locals and city officials have welcomed this news and many outsiders wishing to safely invest in Brazil have also shown a keen interest in these future social housing developments.
