BiggerPockets
has evolved into a seriously useful site for real estate investors.
It has grown to more than 33,000 members and accurately bills itself
as dedicated to Knowledge, Networking, Dealmaking and Marketing.
The forum section of the site is very active, very helpful, and
covers a wide range of topics. The forums are also well-moderated,
so you don't have to sift through spam. In addition, you can now
create your own blog, and take advantage of a library of user-contributed
articles. We think BiggerPockets
is an excellent resource for both beginners and seasoned real estate
pros.
With the release of Version 6 of Commercial / Industrial Development, this is a good time to tell you about a networking site designed specifically for developers and for those in the building professions: UPworld.

Membership is by invitation or a simple online application. Check it out at UPworld.com.
