Silvio Pagliani, president of the property website LuxuryEstate.com, said that he had seen a 27% boost in searches for upmarket property in Brazil in May from two months before.
“As it often happens with major international events, the World Cup has drawn a lot of attention to the host country," he added. "Those who are used to a very high standard of living tend to also maintain a high quality of life while travelling, even for a short period of time."

For footie fans with a bit of cash to spare, here are six luxurious properties you could snap up in Brazil while you're there for the World Cup.
