answer any direct questions. I was actively involved with bigger pockets and was even asked to be a main speaker at I believe the only convention they have had. It was located in Denver Colorado years ago and I even helped the owner and his wife put the gift bags together the night before the convention started. I had extensive experience in real estate before joining bigger pockets and became worn out with all the crazy questions and phone calls I received from wannabe investors. I still peruse it once in a while and have a solid reputation on the website.

The previous thread had some very accurate statements and also some embellishments that will not hold up to complete scrutiny without several disclaimers. I speak from the experience of being a licensed real estate broker early in my career in multiple states as well as owning more single-family residences than anyone I have met as well as syndicating apartment buildings before it was fashionable. I currently own near 400 doors ( number of rental units be it houses or apartments) have done SPEC building on over 100 homes ( many in Utah), have set up multiple management companies, and flipped close to 200 homes in four different states. I have also had a few cougar board members meet with me to get various ideas and thoughts.

I have also taken advantage of hard money ( some in St. George) and even then on the lending and of hard money and transactional lending. I think I am a good source to answer questions about bigger pockets from the inside or from the outside. I don't know how the ownership is set up currently but when I was involved, there was a single owner and Josh was a great guy. Very much a straight shooter but I can't speak for all of those involved now. Remember, many of these posters have ulterior motives......

I love real estate and it was my way to financial security and I was able to obtain it at a very young age. I have enjoyed helping others find the same path. I'm not trying to sell you anything.
