Testimonials from LIBI members “Being a member of LIBI has provided me with an opportunity to network with other builders as well as expand my contacts with associate members. These relationships have proven to be extremely helpful as we advance a major development project” Brian Ferruggiari, AVR Realty Group “I joined the organization as an associate member in 2011and got involved immediately in several committees whose chairmen happen to be builder members. Each one of these builders has since referred business to me, not only for their own organization, but also for the charities each of them support as well. At LIBI, people are very generous in showing their appreciation for the support and time members extend to the organization which in our case has resulted in LIBI entrusting its printing needs to Minuteman Press Selden. The relationships I have been fortunate to develop at LIBI have taken my business to the next level. Joining LIBI has been rewarding, both professionally and personally as I count many staff, associate and builder members among my friends today.” Rita Passeggio, Minuteman Press Selden “J. Ratto Landscaping has been a member of the Long Island Builders Institute for over 15 years. Though we belong to several other industry associations, LIBI is one of our most important and effective associations. Members promote each other’s businesses through working within our organization, as well as encouraging others to work with LIBI members by referring non-members to LIBI’s List. We band together to boost industry business by supporting Long Island projects that will not only benefit members, but the residents within each of our communities as well. My company is very active within the organization. We participate through our showcase at their Annual Trade Expo. I personally participate in Lobby Day, my staff and I partake in charitable functions throughout the year, and we also sponsor several events throughout the year. This is an excellent way to support LIBI functions and events, as well as market all the latest services and designs J. Ratto Landscaping has to offer. The events LIBI holds are always well attended, which gives us great exposure. If you are looking to expand your business and your network, I strongly recommend that you join LIBI. My membership, sponsorship and participation within the organization have helped my business to grow in countless ways. You will not be disappointed with all of the benefits that LIBI has to offer.” John Ratto, J. Ratto Landscaping
