To open a business you should be able to do this with an accountant for 1,000 reais at the most...you can even do it a little cheaper depending on the accountant. Our accountant, whom is very good and knows a lot of people, which unfortunately here in Brazil the most valuable commodity is "knowing people", charges us 1,000 reais to open a business. But we normally have it opened in two weeks max...which is fast for here.

As far as hiring a lawyer to get your investors visa I just paid a lawyer that specializes in this area, and she got a portuguese investor friend of mine his, 3,500 reais per person, and I'm getting two of them for my partners.
Ok thanks for the info Ralph,
Yes the property purchase money was sent directly by me from my account through the Banco do Brasil like you have explained and was sent in USD. The account details was for the priviate account in Brazil of the seller as i bought a resale. Dont really know what you mean when you asked what the Banco see in their system?
Best prices i have so far is R$6000 for acc and visa by laywers, can you recommend in Fortaleza?

Cheers
Paul
