With this launch, eXp becomes the first agent-powered platform in the UK to offer both residential and commercial services under a single model, part of a broader global strategy. It also builds on eXp UK’s rapid growth in the residential sector, where its self-employed model has already reshaped the estate agency landscape.
– The UK commercial property sector has grown substantially. It’s a $10 billion opportunity hiding in plain sight. Traditional commercial models have kept too many agents from benefiting fully with the freedom, earnings potential, and flexibility to serve clients across all markets, but we’re changing that. Plus with the backing of our global community, agents can now maximise interest in UK commercial property on a global scale, not just a domestic one – said Adam Day, international expansion leader for Europe.
The UK commercial real estate industry is forecast to reach £8.1 billion ($10.2 billion USD) in revenue in 2025, following decade-long growth of more than 50% (IBISWorld). Yet the sector remains dominated by traditional firms, creating a clear gap for agents seeking greater autonomy, earning power, and a modern platform to grow their business.
– This launch changes what it means to be a commercial agent in the UK. The business we’re building has to be seen to be believed. I’ve worked in commercial agency for nearly 10 years, and I’ve seen how little has changed for the people doing the work. Most agents are still building someone else’s business. This gives them a chance to finally build their own, with more control, better economics, and the backing of a global brand – said Rob Jones, head of eXp UK Commercial. With this launch, the UK becomes the foundation for eXp’s international commercial expansion and the blueprint for what’s to come.
