eXp Realty Appoints T3 Sixty to Consult on Best Practices and Strategy Amidst Rapid Growth

BELLINGHAM, WA--(Marketwired - August 05, 2015) - eXp Realty International Corporation (OTCQB: EXPI) today announced that it has formally engaged T3 Sixty, the real estate industry's foremost analysts and consultants, to advise the company on best practices and strategy as the company manages and develops the infrastructure to accommodate and sustain its rapid growth.

T3 Sixty is part of the Swanepoel T3 Group and is headed up by Stefan Swanepoel, widely regarded as the foremost authority on trends within the real estate industry. In addition to providing consulting services, the T3 Group also produces many of the real estate industry's most authoritative publications and reports including the Swanepoel TRENDS Report, the Swanepoel Power 200, the T3 Tech Guide, the T3 Risk Guide and The Real Estate Confronts series. Mr. Swanepoel has authored and/or co-authored more than 30 books and reports analyzing the strategies, shifts and changes impacting the residential real estate brokerage business. His books have been featured on over 18 bestseller lists including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Huffington Post, CEO Read and Amazon.com. Mr. Swanepoel has given over 1,000 talks to more than one million people, serves as Editor-in-Chief of the SP200 (ranking of the most powerful people in real estate) and is also the Host of the T3 Summit (the leading real estate leadership summit). He has served as CEO of nine companies and two non-profit organizations.

"In our 2011 TRENDS Report, we identified eXp Realty as a company to watch as its cloud-based approach in creating a virtual real estate company is uniquely different than any other real estate company. Two years later in the 2013 edition of our annual Trends Report we identified eXp as very viable alternative for brokerage companies besieged with rising expenses," Swanepoel said.

In May of this year, the National Association of REALTORSⓇ, the largest trade association in the United States, took an unprecedented step in commissioning an industry introspection and subsequently publishing an extensive 160 page report listing 50 risks and threats that could impact real estate professionals. This controversial study titled the D.A.N.G.E.R. Report (Definitive Analysis of Negative Game Changers Emerging in Real Estate) was also researched and authored by the Swanepoel T3 Group.

Two different threats identified in this Report -- B6 (Brokers Simply go Broke) and B7 (Technology Becomes a Runaway Train) underscore the importance of retooling the existing real estate transaction and process and to find new, more cost effective and more consumer centric ways to serve the home buying and selling consumer.

"A cloud-based real estate company is exactly what the progressive real estate professional of today needs and wants," said eXp Realty Chairman and CEO, Glenn Sanford. "We're very excited to be able to announce further empower our family of agent-owners and shareholders with knowledge and information inline with the rapidly changing real estate industry."
