WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT US
‘COMPETENT, FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL’
PIP TELLS IT LIKE IT IS
We started working with PIP more than three years ago. PIP partners helped us set up a company, explained to us how the liens and deeds work and provided relevant information and advice about investment opportunities. It is a rather time-consuming investment process—with a lot of legal, technical and organizational details. PIP takes care of all these aspects in the most appropriate way. We find the company and the people very competent, friendly and helpful. One should just bear in mind that these investments are not for the faint-hearted, as there are many unexpected external moments. We find the PIP management very trustworthy, confident and creative, thus making it easy for clients to concen- trate on their own business. We gladly recommend PIP to new clients who are searching for long-term profitable investments. —Mira Markovic Vienna, Austria
I was in my early 60s and starting to consider what my eventual retirement might look like. I started researching some different options other than traditional stockbrokers. I was made aware of self-directed IRA accounts just about the time in May of 2010 when Greece first announced that it was about to be in a credit crisis. I saw the stock market drop 1000 points in one day. I quickly decided that I was not willing to allow an incident on the other side of the world to decrease the value of my retirement nest egg. My goal was to continue building it for another 8-10 years. During my self-directed IRA search, I also read about tax liens. I did like the returns, but the process seemed complex and time-consuming to understand. I run a full-time business, and I was not sure if I had the time to learn and participate in the process, let alone go to tax auctions on courthouse steps. I attended a financial network retreat where I met PIP. I hesitated for a while, almost a year before I realized the clock was ticking and I needed to continue investing. I also learned after the Greece announcement that I did want great growth, but I did not want the risk associated with stocks. I joined PIP in 2013. I felt comfortable with their procedures and program. The risk was zero. The return was better than other instruments out there. With all things there is good and bad. I knew that whatever amount I put in to invest would grow (the good). The state where you invest guarantees a specific return, so my money was safe (more good). The facts are as told by PIP; redemptions could come over any period up to three years out (not as good). Your money is not liquid. However, the longer your money is out there, the more accumulation of return there is. As I completed the process over the three-year redemption term of some of my first round of investing, PIP was professional and prepared to respond to my questions. As I went through the process of investing with PIP, I would talk to my wife. I explained my experiences as I became more confident with the results and support through PIP. Now my wife also has engaged PIP for her portfolio growth with safety. — Charles Janosick President, Proforma Executive Business Services
The PIP group has done a great job explaining the tax lien and deed business. They answered every question, and their customer service is second to none. They get back to you right away, and you always knowwhere your money is during the whole process. The best thing I can say is that they are making me money, and they always keep me well informed with their great customer service.
A COMPANY WITH THE HIGHEST INTEGRITY
PIP GROUP IS MAKING ME MONEY
I have had only the most positive encounters with everyone at PIP, and that includes people in various roles within the organization. It’s always difficult to know who to trust with investment decisions and strategies, and more so for someone like me who is already at retirement age and still trying to recover and rebuild from stock market losses (and conse- quently having an aversion to investing in the markets) that occurred years ago. I had never heard about tax liens until about four years ago, when a PIP execu- tive took the time to walk me through the process and answer every question pa- tiently and thoroughly. I invested in liens for the next three years, and as the process unfolded I often had additional questions. The manner in which PIP employees handled every question or concern I had caused me to build up tremendous trust for the company in terms of the integrity with which it does business. That trust made it easy for me to leap into a different type of investment with PIP—a flip in Georgia. PIP encountered a few unexpected hiccups between the time they purchased the first home and when it was sold, but again, those hiccups offered me the chance to experience once again the high level of integrity the company brings to each and every transaction with its clients. I ultimately saw a great return onmy investment and am very excited now to have two more flips underway! — Susan M. Baile, Colorado

SUPERIOR SERVICE IS PIP’S HALLMARK
PIP WILL DO IT ALL FOR YOU
I am very satisfied by my experience with PIP Group and would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of investing in tax liens. I had studied tax lien investing and when I found PIP Group and learned that they did all of the hard work—due diligence, attending the auctions, managing the holdings and foreclosures—the decision to use themwas a total no-brainer. The folks at PIP spent a good half-hour or more on the phone with me answering my questions and explaining their criteria for purchasing liens as well as all of the risks involved. Don’t try to do it yourself when you can hire an expert to do it for you. — Tom Rutkowski Innovative Retirement Strategies
I have been investing with PIP Group for more than three years. During that time, I have invested in tax lien certificates, a tax deed property and a foreclosure. Of course, the return on investment has been fantastic. More than that, though, has been PIP’s incredible service. Everything is done for me. Investments are found and vetted. Repairs are made. Proper- ties are listed and sold. Whenever a county document needs to be filed, PIP takes care of it, always careful to keep me in the loop. I love the safety of the investments, knowing that PIP always has taken care to find me the best liens and deeds. And since everything is record- ed at the county government, I can be confident that each step is being done correctly. I have recommended PIP’s services to friends and family and look forward to continuing to do business with them for a long time. —Douglas C.

PIP OPENS DOORS TO DIVERSE STRATEGIES
Diversification is the key ingredient inmy investment strategy, and PIP Group allows me to invest in real estate strategies and asset classes that would be otherwise be cost-pro- hibitive (in terms of money and time) if you’re not investing large sums of money. Their fees are reasonable, they do all the work, and you get peace of mind because the assets are under your name. The income I get is truly mailbox mon- ey, and it’s the kind I like the most. —Melvin Lim, Freemont, California

We have found PIP to be among our most professional partners and with solid positive return on investment year after year. We look forward to many more prosperous years of partnership. —Daniel Mekki, CEO, Inventa Finans Bergen, Norway
