Good experience

After lots of researches for investing in the US market, I managed to get in touch with Mike. We exchanged for a while to cover all my questions and have the process made crystal clear.
I decided to go ahead and I bought a property 2 years ago in Cleveland, Ohio.
The property is a section 8 and I received every single month since then the rent.
Needless to say we are really happy with that purchase and we are planning to buy another one soon.
I can recommend Mike and his professional team. They always answered to my queries and questions and even made some suggestions that were pretty interesting.
Thanks again 👍

From the initial contact with Global investments team member it was a humane and professional approach. The update information and follow up even after the purchase services has done is much appreciated. The team is also available to answer promptly to any of my queries no matter how small it is.
Above all, Global Investments save both your time and money for you property investment especially abroad.

My first investment and it couldn't be going any better!

Working with Barrie to purchase my first investment property. He cares about finding the right investment for you. Investment is hard enough already so to be reminded knowledgeably of all the salient points of the investment allow you to make an informed and beneficial decision and he has been excellent. I'm hoping to work with Global Investments and Barrie again in the future

Our recent purchase of a property in Cleveland through Global Investments was fairly complicated and required attention to detail. I visited Cleveland and knew the property would be a great long term investment so decided to be patient and let the guys at Global deal with the sellers technical issues. The process took an extra few months but that peace of mind to me is everything. We are very pleased with our investment and recommend Global to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Cleveland

Barrie and John at GII have been amazing, read the review!

Barrie and John at GII have been amazing to deal with. There is a significant time difference, i am currently based in Jakarta, however i would be receiving updates at 7am BST to assist with my decision making and with the purchase. We also ran into some issues regarding the AML checks, GII liaised on my behalf with both the solicitors and the developers to ensure the 'kinks' were smoothed out, top drawer experience, cant fault them.

Buying my 2nd property from Global Investments Inc was an easy decision for me. I first purchased with Global 4 years ago in Detroit and I have had a very positive experience with my house and made good profits on the rental income over the years, I was thinking of selling and Global offered to sell for me but I decided to keep and use the money I have made on the rents towards another and just closed on a duplex in Cleveland. Same easy process with Mike, and John, nothing is ever too much trouble and just waiting for the new tenants to be put in my spare apartment, just had confirmation today new ones going in next week so very happy. Another huge thanks for everything Mike & John.

My experience with Global was excellent. Every step was straight forward. The team were very friendly and helpful and every question I asked was answered promptly. I had one small delay with my LLC but that was generally the US Governments employee’s being a little slow but that was resolved with a minimum of fuss. After having a long chat with the management team in St Louis I understand the process very well and confident my house is well looked after. Rents coming in from Section 8, very happy.

Global investments are not what they claim to be ! There is nothing professional about this team at all . Apart from taking your money to sell you a property they have no authority over an arising problems you occur with their recommended over seas management company ! We used harvest homes ,fred pickens ( also a broker )
This whole overseas selling arrangement is unsatisfactory and not worth your time or stress! Once you buy the house you are on your own , I do not recommend them at all
I have also been contacted by 3 other customers of global who are still fighting to get money back !
If they don’t like your review they threaten you with their solicitor! …. They should be using their solicitor to help us get the money that’s owed us !
Stay clear of global investments
As you can see from their reply of threats from a legal team ( we are still waiting )
Global know they owe us money that’s why we will never hear from them again !
We lost $5000 from overcharged expenses so would love to take this up with their legal team ! Maybe they could recover our hard earned money

Hi Andrew Trill and Vanessa Denning, I am answering both of your reviews the same as you purchased one property from Global Investments Incorporated but seem to have posted 2 separate reviews…

After reading both of your reviews I wanted to take this opportunity to respond and address both of your reviews in detail and also address several or the points that are far from the truth and factually incorrect. I would like to respond to you both in detail as I have not seen such a false review like this in the entire 10 years we have been in business.

Firstly I would like to state that throughout our business dealings all we have ever done is try to assist and help meet your requirements. This has included selling the property at a higher price than you paid for it. I would also like to remind you Andrew that on more than one occasion I actively discouraged you from buying this property as I felt that if you did buy it you would be at the risk of not collecting rent due to timing and also some other factors that I made very clear to you. Despite this advice and our discussions you decided to buy the property against my advice.

Please also see below more comments on the events that led to the sale of this property.

You closed on this property in December 2020. You have one tenant who paid the rent every month during the 10 months that you owned the property. The second tenant had work issues that were related to COVID which is understandable. I would also like to point out Vanessa and Andrew that this is one of the risks involved in buying an investment property anywhere in the world.
After these issues you decided that you wanted to sell the property which we offered to help and sold the property at $69,900. You paid $64,900 so we actually sold the property at a profit of $4,100 for you. You received a lower sum on closing as you had unpaid tax and water bills for the property that you owned. The fact is we sold the house for more than you paid for it.

As a company we have been in business 10 years and have many happy clients. When our clients have issues which of course can happen we are always there to assist and help as we have done in your case.

We also point out to all of our investors the risks involved in buying rental properties and also advise that this type of investment is long term and should be looked at over a good 5-10 year period and not 10 months, as was our case.

Due to your persistence in leaving these misleading comments and posts, we have had no choice to pursue legal advice in order to protect the truth and reputation of our business, which has served many thousands of clients over the past 10 years. You will expect to hear from our legal team directly who have documented all of your recent reviews, posts and communications to date not only on this on this platform but on our other social platforms.

Global Investments made buying in the US easy. Very knowledgeable and exceptionally patient, Mike took the time to explain to me, a first-time homebuyer, everything that I needed to know, more than willing to put in all the time and effort necessary to ensure that I was completely informed and satisfied throughout the entire process. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

I have purchased my 1st property via Global a year ago. Everything I was told was acurate and the ROI is just as expected. Doing business with Global and specifically with Bader was great. They proved to be efficient and prompt. Now I am ready to make a second investment and I'll definitely do it them again

Manchester Waters

I was referred to Global by a friend who brought a property in the US. I wanted something closer to home and Barrie at Global sent me some really good options and I finally decided on Manchester Waters. Think I drove Barrie mad! He’s been so patient with me and made sure everything went smoothly. Looking forward to seeing my property complete.

As a landlord who has been in the buy to let business for years, I can emphatically state that not only are they a professional outfit but they know the business inside out.
John was brilliant by keeping me up to date albeit over 4 months.Cannot fault the service provided and would highly recommend Global. Thank you guys. Keep up the excellent work.

So Professional...

Just completed my second purchase in the States with Michael. Great duplex in Cleveland, needed a bit of work internally before tenants could move in and the maintenance team did a great job of decorating, some new units in the kitchen and a good lick of paint. Michael kept me updated and all works were completed in a few days, with pictures sent to me and tenants moved straight in. Really, really happy and yet again the Global team on the ground in Cleveland and in the UK have been nothing short of brilliant. I'd also like to say how professional and swift Richard has been in setting up my LLC in the states, Thanks Richard :)
