Should I buy the pro membership?

Question

Hi, I wanted to know what are the top reasons for new investors to buy a pro membership on Bigger Pockets. Has anyone gone through the Rookie Bootcamp and was it truly instrumental in helping you buy your first rental? Thanks in advance!

The Pro membership gives access to the calculators, as well as a lot of other features. My brother and I were having this same debate, weighing the pros and cons. We decided to get the pro, for our investment business, and it has been phenomenal. The sheer number of properties analyzed has made it worthwhile in and of itself. Networking on here has also been instrumental in business development.

Hi Qais,

As others have said, the pro membership gives you access to the calculators (Rental Property, BRRRR, Fix and Flip, etc.). For a long time I was analyzing deals using a spreadsheet and the calculators here are much easier to use and will generate a nice report of the deal. So if sharing your analysis with someone, you can send that report.

I've found that just the calculators are worth the pro membership.

hi, if you are planning to purchase rookie boot camp for 600 (with tax 625), they lure you that pro membership comes free with it.

i totally fell for it.

just now, i realized if i did the other way around - purchase pro membership with 20% off at $312, any boot camp is only $132 with some other coupon that is automatically applied which brings total to 444, instead of 625.

spent about 200$ over already, haha

hope that helps somebody.
