If you're a real estate agent working at a traditional brokerage and wondering whether eXp Realty's cloud brokerage model makes sense for you, I can walk you through it from the perspective of someone actively working the Poznań market — as your local sponsor, backed by an established international sponsor network.
The eXp Realty model differs from a traditional brokerage in a few concrete ways.
Working in the cloud brokerage model typically means fewer fixed operating costs for the agent than running out of a traditional storefront office.
On top of standard sales commission, the eXp structure includes revenue share elements and the potential to hold stock in the company (Nasdaq: AGNT). Exact terms and entry thresholds are set individually and discussed on a call.
Access to agents and referral contacts across many countries — particularly useful for premium, commercial and cross-border transactions — while you keep working your own local market.
Joining eXp Realty always happens through a sponsor — an existing agent in the organization who supports a new agent from the start. A sponsor isn't a manager in the traditional sense; they're a guide who helps you understand the platform, the tools, the working model and the compensation structure, sharing real day-to-day experience rather than just company marketing material.
My own sponsor at eXp Realty is Gogo Bethke, an ICON-status agent who has built one of the larger, more established sponsor teams within eXp Realty internationally. That matters for you as a prospective agent: joining through Wałęsa Group doesn't just mean access to eXp's platform — it means becoming part of that wider team structure, with its network, training culture and referral relationships, while getting day-to-day, hands-on support from someone who actually works transactions in Poznań and Wielkopolska. You get local answers to local questions, plus the reach of an international team behind you.
If you specialize in premium, commercial or cross-border transactions, that combination is particularly relevant — Wałęsa Group already works in exactly those segments, alongside standard residential sales.
Beyond the revenue share and stock ownership elements already mentioned, agents in the eXp Realty model typically get access to cloud-based transaction tools, training resources, and a mentorship relationship with their sponsor rather than a purely transactional recruiting process. Exactly which tools, programs and thresholds apply depends on eXp Realty's current policies at the time you join, which is why I walk through specifics on a call rather than listing fixed numbers here.
There's no single guaranteed income figure and no guarantee of success — that depends on your own activity, experience and the market you work in. My role as a sponsor is to give you a full, realistic picture of the model so you can make an informed decision, not to oversell it.

The formal steps required to join eXp Realty.
Training, tool setup, and your first steps working within the team.
A sponsor is an agent already working within eXp Realty who a new agent joins the organization through. The sponsor isn't a traditional manager — they act as a guide, helping the new agent understand the platform, tools, working model and compensation structure, based on real day-to-day experience rather than marketing material alone.
There is no single guaranteed figure — earnings depend on individual activity, transaction volume, and decisions around building your own revenue share network. The exact commission structure, split, cap and revenue share terms are discussed individually, based on eXp Realty's current policies.
No. eXp Realty operates as a cloud brokerage — there are no physical branch offices. The model relies on online tools, remote training and a cloud-based transaction platform, combined with the agent's own local market presence.
No. Onboarding conversations and ongoing sponsor support can be conducted in English. If you plan to work the Polish market day to day, some Polish becomes useful over time, but it isn't a requirement to join or to get started.
eXp Realty operates in multiple countries, and sponsorship isn't limited by the sponsor's home market. Book an introductory call to discuss your specific market and situation.
No, you keep your specialty and local market. eXp Realty adds tools, training, a global brand and access to an international agent network on top of that — useful especially for premium, commercial and cross-border transactions.
