Top of the Props: Booming Brazil 'On top of the world'

Interest in Brazil from visitors to TheMoveChannel.com has soared over the last month, with the world's biggest emerging market powering its way into the top 5 of our 'Top of the Props' chart for the first time.

London, UK (PRWEB) March 13, 2008 -- Interest in Brazil from visitors to TheMoveChannel.com has soared over the last month, with the world's biggest emerging market powering its way into the top 5 of our 'Top of the Props' chart for the first time.

It's an exciting time for Brazil and anyone considering investing in the country. With two recent oil and gas discoveries and an apparent immunity to the worldwide credit crunch, Brazil's economy is prospering, and property prices are certain to receive a major boost.

The titanic struggle at the top of chart between Europe's heavyweights continued, with Italy, France and Spain shuffling places once again, producing a new number 1.

Far flung destinations continued their march up the chart, with two exciting emerging property markets crashing into the top 10 for the first time in months.

This month's chart also produced some more surprising results, with countries many people perceive to be perennially popular falling out of favour with TheMoveChannel's investors.
