In today’s episode, I’m excited to be joined by the episode of eXp’s Global, Michael Valdes. In 2020, eXp expanded to an 18-country, global footprint. This incredible journey of growth really speaks to how resonant this model is, and the stories and feedback Michael has been getting from eXp agents from India to Mexico, shows that it’s more than an economic model. In many parts of the world, it’s an equalizing model that isn’t just changing lives, it’s changing nations.

Michael has always had a global perspective in business, and he has a lot of unique expertise on becoming a global real estate agent. As president of eXp Global, he is currently the only Latino President of a publicly traded real estate company in the country (Nasdaq: EXPI). In his first year of joining, he has led a team that has opened 14 countries in 14 months without ever getting on a plane which is a feat that has never been done in the industry. This model has successfully touched the lives of thousands of people across the globe and given them an opportunity to change their lives. Michael was the former Senior Vice President of Global Servicing for Realogy Corporation. In that role he oversaw the international servicing platform for all Realogy brands including Century 21, Coldwell Banker, ERA, Better Homes & Garden, Corcoran, Climb and Sotheby’s International Realty in 113 countries. He had been with Realogy in a variety of roles for 15 years. Prior to that, Mr. Valdes was Director of Private Banking at Deutsche Bank for a decade where he oversaw a book of business of just under $1 billion. He has the distinction of being the first Director in the United States of Latino descent. Michael also hosts The Global Luxury Real Estate Mastermind.

eXp has now grown into 18 countries across the world, from India and Australia to Mexico and South Africa. The impact of the company and the economic model can’t be quantified by a balance sheet, it’s evident in the stories of agents all over the world, and how their lives have changed.
