Thanks for the information. We do have an attorney. We already have a deal on one property and as I understand it we will receive a check with a letter from a judge authorizing us to wire the funds from Brazil to the U.S. so all I have to do is go to a bank and request the funds be wired. Does this sound right to you?
If I have a Citibank account here in the States can I just take check to Citibank in Rio to expedite the transfer? Or are there only certain companies/banks that can be used?
