Entrepreneur targets young market

A YOUNG entrepreneur hopes to become a millionaire within five years after setting up a new property investment company aimed at young people. Alnwick-based Amy Fettis, 21, has set up Principle Property Investors (PPI) after leaving her job at Newcastle-based Highgate Property Investments and believes her experience within the sector will help her become a property tycoon in no time. She has already acquired 50 properties for buy-to-let investors to purchase, including units at the new Hanover Mill development on Newcastle Quayside and 40 two-bedroom apartments in Sunderland that are currently under construction. She also aims to create five jobs in the next five years, including three brokers and two support staff to help grow the business within the North-East as well as help expand it into the first-time buyer residential market.
