Another year, another record. eXp World Holdings just announced its financial and operational results for the full year and Q4 of 2022 and once again, the company produced record revenue of $4.6 billion, which is up 22% year over year. Additionally, agent growth was 21%, totaling 86,203 agents by year’s end. (Read the press release here.)
Other big highlights include that eXp World Holdings Founder, CEO and Chairman Glenn Sanford took over as CEO of eXp Realty – a role he has held a few times since founding the company in 2009. Sanford’s move is to concentrate on the next phase of eXp’s agent growth. He assumes the CEO role from Jason Gesing, who was promoted to Chief Industry Relations Officer.
“I am excited to return as CEO of eXp Realty to drive our next phase of growth by doubling down on agent-centric innovation. Our model was designed to withstand varying market conditions, which uniquely positions us to continue investing in the agent experience in a down market. In turn, we maximize long-term growth and profitability.”
— Glenn Sanford, Founder, CEO and Chairman of eXp World Holdings and CEO of eXp Realty
