Well, there you have it, folks...
A British citizen (resident in NE Brazil who is experienced in all matters 'real estate' and who has been through the whole immigration process), and an esteemed attorney, with great Brazilian experience, both agree 100% on all the above matters.
Could it be that we are both wrong?
I should also make it clear that, while I have heard of Jose Santiago and have even read some of his excellent articles during my research, we have never met or even communicated before.
Thank you, Jose, for your ringing endorsements of my comments, and I hope some readers may knock on your door to ensure that they satisfy Brazillian law with their investments. It is necessary that us Europeans learn how things are done here in Brazil, and not assume it is the same as in the EU.
By the way, Jose, where are your offices? I may have some business for you in the future...!
