My first impression of IPIN was being struck by the courtesy and understanding of the IPIN staff. Something which I thought was reminiscent of a bygone era. IPIN were very professional in the management of my investment.

When I first read about the Secure Exit Strategy, I thought the 25% return too good to be true, but IPIN have proved me wrong, as, I invested in The Flaxby Secure Exit Strategy in October 2009 and exited in June 2010, 9 months later with a whopping 48% return.

People at IPIN are not pushy, they are friendly, patient, helpful and easy to reach during and after business hours, when it suits me best. This is what I expect from an advisor. I am planning to further expand my portfolio based on the results achieved by the IPIN team.

As we approach retirement conservative and secure investment programs are the only ones we considered. The IPIN SES program fits our investment goals perfectly and has performed as advertised. Who can argue with a 26% annualised return in the current economic environment?

There were two main aspects that attracted us to this investment; the strength of the commercial proposition itself (the product was eminently marketable) and the extensive security provided by the escrow and other associated legal arrangements.

After almost two years of working with IPIN, I am convinced this is one of the best wealth-building investment vehicles available.

Docklands is the second successful SES unit I've bought-into. For me, this still represents the best thing I can do with my money - not only is it secure, but the returns are guaranteed too. Another thing I really like is how the projects to which IPIN apply the SES always seem to be really sound - they're not just good SES investments, they always have a lot going for them as traditional investments.


Mr. M. Green

I invested in the Secure Exit Strategy (SES) as an addition to my existing property portfolio. I was very surprised when told that I had been exited within just over 6 months.  I was extremely happy with the returns I made and decided to reinvest those returns with IPIN.


Mr Robert D
IPIN member and investor

As the first of my investments with IPIN, I was keen to see an early result on one of my units even though I understood I should be prepared for the maximum 36 month term.  I was delighted when I received a call to tell me that the first of my units had exited in less than 3 months.


Mr J Donald
IPIN member and investor

I invested on September 21st 2009 after some searching questions. I have been kept informed of progress over the whole period and on February 25th 2010 my unit was sold.  The strategy has worked extremely well for me and I elected to reinvest into another SES venture using 1,013 GBP of the return plus the original investment.

buy to let investment

The Buy to Let sector in the UK has suffered during the economic downturn, with lending restrictions, repossessions and unemployment all taking their toll on the market. Many who bought property to rent out during the years when finance was readily available found themselves unable to keep up with repayments when the country's economy worsened and as a result, many casual investors exited the Buy to Let arena.

Co-founder of the Hampshire and Home Counties Property Networking Club Hazel Reed stated earlier this month that finance had been too easy to access and welcomed the more stringent lending conditions now being placed on Buy to Let mortgages. However, she was upbeat about the prospects for the sector in the long term, pointing out that with first-time buyers also struggling to afford home purchases, the rental market is set to expand.

Independent property expert Malcolm Harrison made a similar assertion, adding that for established investors there are means to fund Buy to Let purchases, but the need for a significant deposit is a stumbling block for many who may want to enter the sector for the first time. Another potential hurdle facing those looking for property investment opportunities in the UK is house prices. Although values have fallen slightly, there have not been the significant drops experienced elsewhere around the world - which may mean savvy investors are looking overseas for Buy to Let opportunities.

The US is a prime candidate in this regard - unlike in Britain, property values have plummeted and there are some bargains to be found for investors willing to do a little leg work. Figures released by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) in May this year revealed that the value of residential sales to international buyers rose by 16 billion USD (9.9 billion GBP) in the 12 months ended March 2011, compared to the 2009-10 tax year.

NAR president Ron Phillips commented: "The US has always been a desirable place to own property and a profitable investment. In recent years we have seen more and more foreign buyers coming here to take advantage of low prices and plentiful inventory." In terms of where people are making purchases, Florida tops the list, followed by California, Texas and Arizona.

Paul Collins, editor at BuyAssociation, recently claimed that popular holiday destinations, such as Florida, will continue to do well with overseas investors. He stressed that there is "still strong interest in the US market", adding that it "could still be very profitable", particularly in regions with a thriving and well-developed tourism industry.

Meanwhile, the Knight Frank Global House Price Index, which was published on June 17th, showed that the US had registered one of the largest declines in residential property values of the 50 countries surveyed, which could add to its appeal. Annual prices fell by 4.9 per cent year-on-year and NAR reported that 62 per cent of foreign investors were cash buyers in the 2010-11 financial year, citing issues with obtaining mortgages as one of the biggest barriers to overseas buyers.

And if analysts are to be believed, the US property sector looks set to be a target for investors for some time to come. A panel of experts at the Reuters Global Real Estate Summit 2011 - held between June 20th and 23rd - selected the nation as a top location for buyers, noting that prices have yet to recover in many major cities.

Scott Latham, vice-chairman of Jones Lang LaSalle, told the conference that in America "yields are still quite affordable and property values, which have recovered [...] represent good value". Treasury China Trust chief executive Richard David agreed with Mr Latham's assertion, adding: "You look at some of the prices of real estate in the United States and you would like to think there is significant gains to be made as they come off their lows."
