Glenn Sanford

Founder and CEO
eXp Realty LLC

Glenn Sanford launched cloud-based national real estate brokerage eXp Realty in October 2009, after the housing downturn compelled him to rethink his business model in recognition of what he calls "the 'perfect storm' of lower revenues, fixed or rising overhead costs, and a consumer with more information and access than ever before." The brokerage has no physical offices. Its agents and brokers work from home and conduct meetings online in a video game-like virtual setting. The company's elimination of brick-and-mortar offices has contributed to its growth -- it currently operates in 21 states and has plans to expand to four more states and Canada by January.
