Celebrate The Five Year BiggerPockets Blog Anniversary!

In This Article

Time certainly flies, doesn’t it?

Today marks five years since I started the BiggerPockets Blog (formerly known as “Real Estate Investing for Real”) with a post that set off a revolution! Ok, actually, the first post on this blog, Real Estate Is a Very Hot Investment, was pretty weak, but like most other blogs experimenting with the medium back then, things have progressed. We’ve come a long way since then, and I just wanted to thank everyone who has been a part of this incredible project.

Who would have imagined back then that we’d turn this blog into one of the most respected online real estate magazines around?

In the 5 years that it has been in existence, the BiggerPockets Blog has had:

• 1,837 articles
• 10,039 comments
• 53 regular contributors and guest authors

Our top two contributors (besides me), are Charles Feldman with 165 contributions, and Richard Warren with 127 articles.

Thank you to everyone who has written for us, left a comment, or read one of our articles! The next five years are only going to get better, so stick around for the ride!

All my best,
