When Glenn Sanford founded eXp Realty in 2009, one of his main goals was to make the real estate world more equitable for agents and brokers, rather than heavily beneficial for the brokerage.
That’s why he installed a revenue-share plan and an equity plan – so that agents and brokers could also reap the benefits beyond a commission check.

This week, eXp Realty announced its financial and operational results for Q4 and full-year 2022 and as part of that announcement, details on how much revenue share and equity was paid out to its agents and brokers were important line items.
Revenue Share and Equity Paid to Agents and Brokers In 2022:
- Revenue share paid to agents: $202 million, an increase of 20%.
- eXp Realty distributed more profit/revenue share benefits last year to agents and brokers than any other real estate brokerage model or platform.
- eXp World Holdings issued over 2.5 million EXPI shares to eXp Realty agents and brokers valued at more than $42.5 million as part of eXp’s agent equity program.
“When eXp Realty was founded, we set out to build the most agent-centric brokerage that solved the biggest pain point in real estate for agents,” said Glenn Sanford, Founder and CEO of eXp Realty. “Historically, agents were generally not offered meaningful ownership in the brokerages they were part of and the profit/revenue sharing models didn’t provide a viable path to potential retirement for the vast majority of agents.”
