About PIAA: Property Investment Advice Training

PIAA is a not-for-profit Professional Association for Property Investment Advice Professionals.  We began in 2002 as an Investors Association and have since developed into a professional association.

We follow the Financial Planning protocol for Advisor recognition including professional educational qualifications (PIA01); professional indemnity insurance; and membership of a professional association with a code of conduct and disciplinary protocols for unacceptable behaviour.  Our membership is by invitation only to legally support the ethics of the association in this currently unregulated sector.

Our business standards are reflective of the Future of Financial Advice (FOFA).  They include clients’ best interest advice, full disclosure and appropriate management of all conflict of interests, full transparency on fees, and professionalism that includes factual market intelligence.  This is in stark contrast to the requirements of real estate law where the focus is on the property and the legal requirements for its transfer from one party to another.
