Not recommended for inexperienced agents
Pros
I've been with exp for 4 months. As a brand new licensee, no prior RE experience, I was attracted to the cloud brokerage model, technology, cap and split and the supplemental income opportunities.
Cons
This is not a brokerage that I would recommend to a brand new licensee. The company is really marketing towards recruiting agents, mainly experienced agents and not training new, inexperienced agents. I find myself without the support that a new agent needs. I manage to learn something new everyday, attending classes offered through exp cloud platform. But even those are geared more towards seasoned agents. I spend much of my day scouring you tube, online articles, anywhere that I can gain new information. I had no leads, no referrals, no spheres, pretty much started form scratch. There really is no mentoring program that I know of and I had to learn on my own how to do basic tasks like creating a CMA, maketing, scripts, etc. on my own. I've had two listing presentations, that I did not get, a couple of showings, that I did not close. I'm generating leads online but nothing solid. I'm pretty frustrated because I know I must not be doing things right but I have no support. I'm going to give it a couple more months (because I'm stubborn) but I'm thinking I made a mistake with eXp.
