BiggerPockets.com Undergoes a Major Facelift Complete with New Property Directory!

It has been a long time coming . . .

We just launched a MAJOR FACELIFT to BiggerPockets!

For years, people have been using our site to do everything from finding tools and resources, to discussing real estate, to making deals, to selling property, etc. We’ve just made it easier to do several of these things.

Here are a few of the highlights:

Created a New BiggerPockets Front Page — some of the great things you’ll find on the new front page of BiggerPockets.com include highlighted property listings, random member profiles, assorted public gallery photos, tags from our property listings, the latest forum and blog posts, and more!
Re-launched our Property Directory to make it “2.0″ — it is now fully integrated into the social profiles of our members, and is easy to use and interactive! Members can save a property as a favorite, email it to their colleagues, subscribe to our main listing RSS feed, or customize their own feeds for individual State or even more specific listings, and much more!
Of course, adding a listing is free and easy. Members (agents, investors, FSBOs, etc) can add investment properties, land, a primary residence, commercial properties, or even make a deal post on the property directory by going to the property section of their Dashboard or adding directly through the Property Directory page. Of course the listings are integrated with mapping, and are connected directly to the listing poster’s profile.
Established a Property Notification “Matching” System — members can select criteria that interests them, and once a listing is added to the site that matches that set of criteria, the user will be notified in their Dashboard — if they elect to do so, they will also be sent an email letting them know that a match to their requirements has been made. The user can then remove individual notifications if they are no longer interested in seeing them, and disable or deactivate all notifications.
Built a Community Gallery Page – members who elect to share photos by creating a public gallery will see their property photos in our gallery page.
Cleaned up several areas of the site, and made many other changes to improve the user experience.

Stop by and see how BiggerPockets has stepped up the game!

Next up . . . . stay tuned! (did you really think we’d share all of our secrets?)
