It reported that it has recorded sales of $760,000 from 12 investors, leaving EXPI with $2,740,000 remaining to be sold. Proceeds from this offering are expected to be used to fund the company’s working capital for ongoing operations.
eXp World Holdings subsidiary eXp Realty LLC is a cloud brokerage, agent-owned company. It reported 2,401 real estate brokers and agents on its platform at year-end 2016.
The company’s real estate concept utilizes the internet and a cloud-based office environment in order to eliminate redundant payroll costs and cut margin-eroding expenses normally associated with brick-and-mortar operations, such as rent, utility expenses, and furnishings. Instead, EXPI can spend more heavily on training its realtors and agents using advanced technologies.
A Fundamental Research Report (http://dtn.fm/m7IiJ) on the company issued last year projected EXPI’s volume in 2017 at $72 million.
