Why Dustin Brohm Left 350 Agent eXp Network for REAL Broker
In this edition of our REAL Broker review series, we sit down with Dustin Brohm, host of the Massive Agent Podcast, to discuss his recent move from eXp Realty to REAL Broker. With a robust 350-agent network and a full-time income in revenue share at eXp, Dustin's decision to switch companies is both intriguing and insightful for any real estate agent considering a change.
A Difficult Decision
Dustin Brohm spent six successful years at eXp Realty, never planning to leave. However, as some of his leadership team began exploring other options, Dustin found himself questioning whether eXp was still the right fit. This unexpected journey led him to REAL Broker, where he saw potential for better support and growth.
Evaluating REAL Broker
One of the most significant factors in Dustin's decision was the REAL Broker review of their revenue share model. Initially skeptical, Dustin discovered that, despite having fewer revenue share tiers, REAL Broker's structure could be more lucrative for the average agent. "Once I finally wanted to really understand... why I was losing so many people to REAL, I realized pretty quickly, holy, I’ve been operating for years based on misinformation," Dustin shared.
Technology That Works
For Dustin, what it's like being an agent at REAL Broker is significantly enhanced by their technology. He praised the integrated REAL app for its seamless access to training, marketing materials, and revenue share data. "It feels like it was just built from the beginning with a bunch of agents in mind," Dustin explained, contrasting this with eXp's more fragmented system.
A Supportive Culture
Another major draw for Dustin was the culture at REAL Broker. Unlike eXp, where resources could be siloed based on downlines, REAL promotes an open, collaborative environment. "It’s one big community with no walls," Dustin emphasized, appreciating the access to tools and support regardless of sponsorship. This REAL review highlights how such a culture fosters better agent retention and satisfaction.
Joining REAL Broker
Dustin's decision to join REAL Broker also came down to practical considerations. REAL's lower transaction costs and no monthly fees were crucial, especially in a challenging market. Moreover, Dustin believes in the potential growth of REAL's stock, seeing it as an attractive long-term investment compared to eXp.
Final Thoughts
Dustin Brohm's journey from eXp Realty to REAL Broker provides valuable insights for any real estate agent considering a switch. With better revenue opportunities, superior technology, and a supportive culture, joining REAL Broker could be the right move for many agents.
