It was earlier this year that I reviewed an online community for pet lovers, and in that time span since, we’ve seen online communities pop up around the internet for just about any specific niche thinkable. Ning is a popular niche community building site, and in that popularity we’ve seen interests mix, people network, and relationships build. The arena of real estate is one such niche that is getting it’s online community presence established thanks to BiggerPockets.com, where investors, professionals, and afficionados come together to talk shop.

Locally, where I live, real estate agents have taken the social engagement philosophy seriously and have taken their properties to the web in words, video, and photos. Some have seen higher levels of success, but overall the experience has been a boom to business. BiggerPockets capitalizes on such individuals by allowing them to gather to chat, exchange, and explore ideas they have.

Four categories covered on BiggerPockets are:

1. Knowledge
2. Networking
3. Dealmaking
4. Marketing

With almost 43,000 people connecting on BiggerPockets, something is working right.  The market for real estate professionals has grown and many turn to it as their secondary or primary source of income. Communities like this allow for these individuals to grow and develop new ideas that they can use to increase their success.

If you’ve seen your own professional status increase due to a certain niche social community, let us know!

Real estate, whether it’s hot or not, one this is true, it’s all about the location. With that in mind, for those of us that are seeking a place to hang our hat, to call our home, there’s lots of apps out there that can help us find that dwelling. Whether your single, married, roomates, there are apps out there that can help you find the right place for you. In the UK there is one specific app that we had a chance to play with, and that’s MousePrice.

MousePrice is an extremely web and mobile app that can share pricing of real estate, provide you quotes, and some basic information based on your needs. The web app is a very simple website that asks you three questions before you submit and move onto your information. In an effort to increase transparency in the industry MousePrice puts as few roadblocks between you and the results. Finding the properties available in the area you selected then makes it easy for you to find the place that best fits your budget.

Alternatively the mobile app for the iPhone works just as effectivly. After inserting some basic information on the location you want, or using your specific location at the moment, it will map out, using GPS, the entire area providing you drop pins to click on in order to get your information. Once the information is displayed, properties in green mean the value has gone up, property in pink means it’s gone down, and yellow properties simply mean that there is not enough information to accurately give you the most recent information.

Interested? Well if you’re in the UK looking for a bit of real estate, I’d be curious to hear if you’ve used this and if you like it. If you’re a real estate agent, do you find this effective for what you do? Leave a comment and let us know.
