BiggerPockets got a great plug as a valuable resource for landlords in Kiplinger Magazine, in the article "What It Takes to Be a Landlord" -- featuring BP Blog contributor and member, Peter Giardini. From what I understand, the article also appears in the June issue of the physical magazine.

Please be sure to check it out and share it. Of course, don't forget to also congratulate Pete on the fantastic profile of him and his business.

Congratulations to Josh and Peter!

The article should be good for a surge in BP's membership count.

BP has become my GoTo source for all that is REI.

Keep up the good work guys (and gals), it's appreciated.

    Thanks James and Kevin! I can now check another periodical off of my list of places that I'd love to get a mention from.

    This has been a pretty good 2 months for us in the press, with other mentions in Personal Real Estate Investor Magazine and Northern Virginia Magazine.

    Hopefully we can keep the trend going!

    Congrats Josh!

    This is just the beginning for BP! Makes me a very proud member. I couldn't have done anything in real estate if it weren't for BP!

    Pete is right here...

    Steve is correct... my father did pass away this past weekend... and now another phase of my life is started... sad, but he is in a much better place.

    As for the article... it would not have happened without Josh's help. Thanx Josh.

    And thanx to all that have acknowledged the great opportunity this article has meant to BiggerPockets and myself.

    Thanks Jon.

    Pete - It was my pleasure sending them your way. You're an example for all the gurus and others out there as to what a real top-quality coach is all about.

    As for your dad, I'm truly sorry to hear the bad news. My condolences.

    Peter, I have a feeling the demand for your coaching and consulting is about to leap forward!

    I too, am sorry about your loss.

    And Josh, congrats on the great publicity!

    My neighbor subscribes to the magazine and I got a peek at the article today. Pete - looks like BP didn't get that sidebar, but that's just fine.

    You, on the other hand, got a FULL PAGE PHOTO! Fantastic! Congrats again. I hope you get more business then you know what to do with!

    Thanx to everyone regarding your thoughts and prayers...

    The article was a great primer for individuals wanting to get started in real estate as landlords... but as everyone here knows there is so much more to it... and resources like BiggerPockets help to fill in the gaps.

    As for the coaching business... well, we will have to see how that works out.
