eXp Realty Timeline From 2009 to Today

eXp Realty launched in 2009 as the antithesis of how traditional real estate brokerages operate. It did away with brick-and-mortar offices and gave all agents the same generous commission structure. From there it added revenue sharing and agent equity opportunities. It operated in the cloud where agents could work from anywhere. It was a radical idea and what Founder and CEO Glenn Sanford considered to be the solution for how to reward agents for all of their hard work. It’s why eXp is the most agent-centric brokerage in the world. Take a look at how eXp has grown throughout the years.
