PIAA Gives You a Head Start With its 5 Star Rating System.

Identifying investment property that looks good, you like and you can borrow against has never been difficult. However, understanding the conditions that make it a successful investment is an entirely different approach. The question is where do we source independent information?

Investors need to consider the opportunity offered by the development, its local amenities, the stage of the property cycle and the impact of this on their investment.

PIAA is an independent not-for-profit organization that charges developers to assess investment properties on behalf of investors (1). We have assessed our first development and many more are queued up to be assessed. The properties are assessed on the basis of the quality and quantity of research information provided (Due Diligence).

“PIAA has developed a proprietary formula encompassing over 200 items that are weighted to arrive at a 5 star rating. The display of this rating informs the investor that this development complies with the PIAA Code of Conduct, and, that they have paid to have their opportunity independently assessed. This gives a new level of transparency to the transaction and a new level of confidence to the investor,” says John Moore, President of PIAA.

“We can not predict the quality or success of an investment property, however we can assess and present the information an investor needs to consider”, says Mr Moore.
