We are so thankful for the leadership from our CEO, Scott Trench! We will continue our efforts to create one million millionaires through real estate 🫡
Just over a decade ago, BiggerPockets changed my life – before I ever joined the company. Inspired by the podcast, I introduced myself to the forums with an ambitious investing target. At the time, I wanted to purchase my first three investment properties by the end of year. While I only purchased a single “house-hack” in 2014, I can vividly remember being greeted by a dozen BP Members, including someone who would later become my agent, selling me my first duplex “house-hack.” I met a lender and watched him become a major part of the BiggerPockets journey, financing many friends, colleagues, and community members. It’s been incredible to see my journey as just one of millions of similar stories that played a role in the making of BiggerPockets’ robust platform that’s grown in so many ways. We’ve come a long way since then. Seven years ago, we set out on a one trillion dollar objective: to help create one million millionaires through real estate. And, we’ve made remarkable progress towards that goal. Earlier this year, we polled you, the BiggerPockets community, and found that 29% of our members are accredited investors—mostly via net worth. That’s an estimated 870,000 millionaires in this community. That’s why we’re so excited to announce a majority investment from The Chernin Group (TCG)—one that we know will enable us to supercharge our platform and better support our community. TCG’s deep expertise in driving digital transformation and redefining beloved educational platforms makes them a perfect partner as BiggerPockets becomes a true “one stop shop” for investors by sharing insightful and educational content at scale and developing the innovative tools people want. Our partnership with TCG is already underway and has already allowed us to make a few major first steps towards that vision. We’re thrilled to announce, as we surpass three million members, that we’re introducing four new tools designed specifically in response to your feedback. I’m incredibly grateful for the BiggerPockets team, our community, and our founder Josh Dorkin. The last 10 years have been absolutely magical. And, it just keeps getting better. I couldn’t be more excited to finish the job of democratizing real estate as we build and partner for the next 10 million investors. Thanks to Allie Garfinkle for sitting down with me to hear our story. Read on here: https://lnkd.in/gHa2N23U
