This was posted on a different thread recently by earlyretirement:
"I recently sold an apartment and I was surprised that you can even wire funds OUT of your US dollar account in Argentina to your USA account. I simply had to give them a certified copy of my escritura, deposited the funds and then signed some paperwork and had to pay a 0.58% commission and they told me that it would take about 5 business days but I was surprised that within 3 business days my funds were in my USA bank account. (Keep in mind I already have a US dollar bank account in Argentina and also have permanent residency in Argentina. I'm not sure this matters at all. I think as long as you already have a bank account you're fine).
Things are MUCH easier with Macri running the show"

You don't need a bank account here if you are dealing property, just the right paperwork. Ten years ago I sent back the cost of my property, in dollars to the UK. As far as I know it is the same now.Hola!
That is MY case. I am selling my property in ARG and looking into ways of getting the U$S from ARG to the US. You gave the certified copy of the Escritura to the ARG Bank or US Bank in ARG? In short, you need an account in ARG with a US Bank? (CitiBank, Bank of America, etc.)
In Cordoba, I just found out, if a property is sold and this is the only one and with NO PLANS to purchase another property there, you can WIRE the money from there to the US. I opened a NEW Checking Account at Bank of America JUST IN CASE my Credit Union Checking Account would bounce or have issues.You don't need a bank account here if you are dealing property, just the right paperwork.
