About Principal International - overseas property experts from Surrey
At Principal International we have the knowledge to show you how to build a successful international property portfolio – because we’re successful international property investors too.
Collectively we have now invested in the UK, Europe, the Caribbean, the Far East and the USA. That’s why, unlike many other companies, we only ever recommend property investments that can deliver the sort of growth and returns that we demand for ourselves.
Initially, having purchased investment properties from overseas property agents, in several countries, it soon became apparent to our Directors that there was a gap in the market for a property agent who could provide a comprehensive professional service.
The Principal group of companies, established in 1991, has successfully operated regulated businesses within the UK property and insurance fields. We therefore felt we had the credentials, core skills and the experience to deliver a professional overseas property investment service offering a high degree of honesty, transparency and integrity - Principal International was born!
Global Knowledge... Expert Advice
Whether you’re a regular investor or simply looking for a single property to use yourself, finding the right opportunities can be a daunting task - but at Principal International we make it easy by doing the hard work for you.
We research the best global markets for overseas property investment, interrogate the optimum capital returns and yields and identify the best development partners to ensure that you achieve a balanced portfolio that delivers outstanding growth. What’s more, we have the experience to source exclusive deals for our clients before they are released to the general public.
A one to one expert service
As an independent company, we give you truly independent advice through every stage of the investment cycle, together with a level of service that regular investors expect. You can meet us at our offices or simply deal with your own dedicated investment manager over the phone or by email, or you can visit our website at www.pip4u.com – the choice is yours. We also hold regular seminars where you can come and meet us to discuss your needs and we can demonstrate how you can optimise your investment strategy. All our clients also receive regular updates, investment alerts and special previews to ensure that you are fully up to date on your investments and global property markets.
Understanding our clients’ needs
Initially, we spend time with you to fully understand your particular investment objectives – capital growth, rental yield, or a mixture of both – and also the level of risk you are comfortable with and your borrowing limits. This helps us to recommend investments that are right for you and your lifestyle.
Getting the best returns on property investment
Not only do we look to maximise the return on your investment we also want you to return to Principal International again and again – and we’re proud to say that most of our clients are regular investors with us. So why not call us.
