“I’ve been in Real Estate for almost 15 years now and have never seen a brokerage that offers what eXp can offer Realtors,” said Team Leader Doug Hayden, who recently joined eXp in Calgary. “Its business model, with a focus on technology and support, appeals to both experienced and younger agents alike, and everyone involved wants to see you succeed as an agent and as an independent business person. I’ve been involved with a few startups over the years, but when it comes to Real Estate, eXp Realty seems like the first true game changing entry into this market place in more than 20 years,” Hayden said. “It’s a great business model that encourages growth, mentorship, and building your business as an agent. At eXp you are treated like an owner and you are an owner. I really don’t see what could hold this company back from becoming one of the major brokerages worldwide.”
