THE FERRARI SISTERS State the name of your company & description Our company is Geanne Housing Provider Solutions, LLC. We provide safe and affordable housing to renters in the Wilkensberg region of Pittsburgh. What problems were you facing before joining REIA NYC / WISE Prior to joining REIA NYC/WISE, we studied real estate with various real estate gurus but we did not accomplish anything. After joining REIA NYC, we encountered a different group of individuals where members were actually making offers, making deals. Through this association, we were able to acquire our first properties, two small multi-family properties by networking with members of the association. Had it not been for being a part of this association, we probably would have never done any deals. What we did that solve those problems In fact, one member of the association invited us to meet his real estate broker. "The membership cost that the members pay is nothing compared to the knowledge, the value, the education that we receive as members."
