Frequently asked questions

What you should know.

Is PRI a relocation or real-estate company?

No. PRI is an independent retirement decision and advisory service. Your fit, priorities and risks come before any recommendation.

Which areas do you cover?

Recommendations are personalized and may include neighborhoods throughout Panama City—such as Bella Vista, El Cangrejo, San Francisco, Punta Pacifica, Costa del Este and Obarrio—as well as Panama Pacifico, beach communities such as Coronado and Pedasí, mountain areas such as Boquete and El Valle, and other locations across Panama that match your preferences.

Will you tell me if Panama is not a good fit?

Yes. Honest guidance is the point. Your report explains both strengths and potential mismatches so you can decide with open eyes.

Is the report personalized?

Yes. It is based on your questionnaire responses, priorities, budget, health needs, lifestyle and timeline.
