From that moment on, settlers migrated to Ipojuca because of the region’s fertile lands, rich in massapê (a clay soil, usually dark and of excellent quality for sugarcane cultivation). This led to a rapid increase in the construction of mills and small production units in the region. The Dutch also took advantage of the situation by invading Pernambuco, an area that already had a number of established mills. However, under the leadership of Sea Captain Amador de Araújo, the Dutch were defeated on July 23, 1645. With two natural ports, Suape and Porto de Galinhas, as well as the largest and best-equipped massapê plantations in the Northeast, Ipojuca quickly became known as one of the most important regions to emerge within the colonial system. As a result, thanks to its natural boundaries and advantages, Porto de Galinhas became one of the most important ports. Given all these conditions, Pernambuco became a major sugar producer and, for many years, was responsible for more than half of Brazil’s exports. This reputation led the region to be known as “Porto Rico” before receiving the name we know today. To carry out all this work, labor was commonly brought from Africa, and unfortunately, even after the abolition of slavery, this system did not stop, giving rise to a circuit of illegal slave trafficking. In this way, enslaved people were brought hidden inside the boats that carried Guinea fowl (one of the aristocracy’s favorite foods in the region). At that time, the saying “There are new hens in the port” meant that a new shipment of enslaved people had arrived. Because of this, Porto Rico came to be called “Porto de Galinhas” (sometimes also known as “Porto de Angola”). The settlement in Ipojuca began in 1560. • The Dutch invaded Pernambuco on July 17, 1645. • The Dutch were defeated on July 23, 1645. • Ipojuca was created on November 12, 1895. • One of the main historic sites, the Convent of Santo Antônio, was founded in 1606 and designated a national heritage site in 1937. • In 2005, Petrobras announced the construction of a fuel refinery in Ipojuca, due to the excellent facilities offered by the port of Suape. This marked the beginning of what became one of the region’s most important industries. At this time, and due to economic and political problems, the port is not as powerful as it once was. >> 4 TIPS TO HELP YOU CHOOSE THE IDEAL PROPERTY TO BUY: > Do not think only about your current marital status. Properties are long-lasting assets. Therefore, the choice must be made not only with today in mind, but also with your life plans. You can find houses and apartments of various sizes, and this will also influence the number of bedrooms the property has. If you plan to live alone, consider whether the property you are about to acquire will meet your needs at least in the medium term. A one-bedroom apartment for a single person, for example, could accommodate a future spouse and even a baby in a crib. But if your plans to start a family are closer to reality, it may be best to look at properties with 2 or even 3 bedrooms. This way, you already secure a home that will fit your life plans. > Location is a relevant factor. Check whether the properties you are considering are well located. This does not mean being in a central area, but rather having good infrastructure around it to meet everyday and unexpected needs. Get to know the neighborhood: check whether there are pharmacies, bakeries, supermarkets, health centers, schools, as well as good public transportation coverage. This will be necessary and, in the end, may save you a lot of effort. > Evaluate whether the "amenities" meet your needs Number of bathrooms, parking spaces, elevator, accessibility, built-in closets... Each one has its use depending on your needs and therefore must be taken into consideration. For those who own cars or motorcycles, not having a parking space can generate a high monthly cost that, in the end, will be much more expensive than a slightly higher investment for these features, for example. The same applies if an apartment does not have a service area that can fit a washing machine. With the rush of daily life, it is not always possible to wash clothes by hand, and the lack of space for a washer can lead to recurring laundry expenses that would make it impossible to cover all costs. Therefore, pay attention to your needs, calculate everything carefully, and make a better-aligned and feasible choice. > Check whether your dream fits your financial reality. You may dream of having a larger apartment, with a service area, spacious rooms, and everything else. However, before you start looking, be realistic: assess your financial possibilities. Even with a good down payment with FGTS support, financing can end up being expensive due to interest rates, and no one knows what tomorrow holds. Therefore, do not reach higher than you can. Review the available budget, run simulations in the case of financing, and only then begin your property search. This way, you can align your dream with your reality, avoiding committing to something you will not be able to fulfill. By following these tips, you will certainly make a more advantageous deal.
