Buyer Beware - CI Investments USA

Post by luckikim » Tue Aug 22, 2006 2:52 am

I fell in love with a mobile home and subsequently the company that repped it. I can't seem to find the thread now but someone had posted that CI INVESTMENTS USA had cashed their check to move a mobile home...maybe in AL. In any event, I am sorry to report I did my own research on them and according to the information on the BBB Baltimore site regarding this company, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. The complaints ranged from not responding to the BBB's inquiries to complaints from customers that have complained about not receiving their services, products, and an inability to confirm the company's existance. This company was listed as doing business for 11 months and had racked up seven such complaints in that time period. That is the documented number of complaints. There may be others floating around. Just thought others may be interested in this information as they advertised some really nice homes and may be contacted by unsuspecting buyers. They have a number of listings on this site as well.
