    Selling costs

    Growler beat me to the the question first. Why you also paying a lawyer 2% ? The CRECI agency does all the paper work for you and is included in the 6% commision. I live in Sao Paulo and can say for sure that 6% in the going rate, but that includes the whole service until the transfer is done...

    Agent predicts growing demand for holiday homes in northeast Brazil

    Its so obvious its just an advertisment for this "Brazil real estate specialist UV10". Who is the author of this advert "Ray Clancy"? I see in other aticles he wrote in the past, he coincidently only likes to quote and mention UV10.

    The Demand Quadruples

    Hey Ralph... of course any one who lives over here knows that banks need any RNE to open a account. Exceptions to this rule must be due to mistakes or some "jeitinho" as you say. Bradesco required mine 5 years ago. Look ate HSBC site, where they say its law: ie quote. "A tourist visa is...

    Brazilian Lifestyle

    Well you just reconfirmed my understanding of that place. The rumor is true. I went to the region before, but could never go back, at least not the places where all the gringos are. I would not like to be associated and stereotyped with that lot. Down here in many parts of the south of...

    Brazilian Lifestyle

    From what this GUY describes, Ponto Negra sound like a place for under-sexed gringo GUYS just traveling to thier rocks off . Great Promo for tourism ! I have also read a few "portugues language blogs" in Brasil, saying the same thing. Great prospects I see for the future property market. If...

    Dotty Postings

    If this forum did not have people like Dotty, and a few of others, talking about the real Brasil from the ground, this forum would be so boring and false. I am sure he has given many constructive alerts to would-be investors to the NE of Brasil. He certainly has done for me. I feel he is only...

    Once Again, Aracaju Wins "Best Quality of Life" In Brazil! -Globo Reporter

    Ralph, I don’t know you, but my inclination is that you want to sell some good property, with REALLY clean title, and for others to gain some liquidity / profit along the way too. You are not greedy. That's just my feeling. I will investigate more about your company. It’s not difficult...

    Blindness and stupidity when investing in Brazil

    You are right Dotty, Santa Catarina is class. Please dont publise too much. Wouldnt like that charter flight lot from the EU discover. Keep them gated up in Natal. Should keep this part of Brasil more for the locals and other South Americans.
