We take pride in offering all of our services & resources FREE to our users, and strive to bring our users new and exciting services that are often a pay service elsewhere.
Since its founding in 2004, BiggerPockets has revolutionized the way people in the real estate world network. With our Social Networking Platform (launched January 5, 2008), which allows people to safely and professionally communicate with one another and share their interests with their profiles, we were able to bring these networking capabilities to the next level.
Unlike most other real estate investing and "educational" websites, we do not promote "gurus" in an effort just to gain affiliate sales. Our purpose is to help educate our members directly on our site. Through our forums, articles, and blog, users can get an education that they'd spend thousands of dollars for elsewhere. Additionally, we only offer materials on our store that we or our users have found to be worthwhile.
Our site is here for the consumer. We are not fans of the sleazy sales pitch and that shows if you take a look at our forums and other areas of the site! We kick out spammers and leeches and focus on providing our members with a safe learning experience free from pressure and solicitation.
There are many copycats out there, but only one BiggerPockets!
About the Founder
BiggerPockets.com was founded by Joshua Reed Dorkin in August 2004. An entrepreneur, web designer, real estate investor, and one-time realtor, Joshua was not satisfied by the online offerings of other real estate sites out there, and decided to build one himself.
Mr. Dorkin's vision for BiggerPockets has helped to propel it into becoming one of the top real estate destinations online. His vision for the site and its future has brought national press attention to both Mr. Dorkin and to BiggerPockets.
