Stay away from con artist Jeff Battistoni

Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this fellow. He is nothing more than a fraudster.

We contracted his so-called business (which he claims to hold but actually does not) to serve as the general contractor for the extension of our house. He said he’d have to get the permits and that it would take about two months. That didn’t seem unreasonable. At first, everything proceeded according to plan and, for the most part, without complications. But after the extension was framed and roofed, things started to go south.

Jeff kept making excuses about delays due to missing supplies. What we learned later was far more troubling. Jeff has been fabricating stories about subcontractors and supply chain problems. Jeff claimed the project would take no longer than three months to complete. It’s now been over three months and replumbing the master suite is the only thing that has been started. Midway through Jeff claimed the project had run out of cash. He continues to provide more excuses as to why money has gone missing. He has said he’s working on getting a loan to finish the work.

That loan never came. Two months later and my home is neglected and abandoned, and there is no work being completed on the house despite being paid upfront. To make things worse, subcontractors started appearing at my door claiming they hadn’t been paid by Jeff as his checks had bounced. Together, they are owed in excess of $36,000.

Jeff has decided to take no shots of taking at least some responsibility on his behalf. In sum, all this and he is nonchalant.

From my investigation, I discovered that he has deceived many people and companies before. The guy is a con artist, a deceitful individual, and a burglar – It is important to conclude his fraudulent activities once and for all.
