BELLINGHAM, Wash., May 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric real estate brokerage on the planet™” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), proudly announces the addition of Claudia Serna and her 500-agent independent brokerage from Broker's LLC, marking a significant merger of talent and expertise. This strategic move enhances eXp Realty’s robust network and aligns with its mission to provide unparalleled opportunities for agents on a global platform.
Serna, celebrated for her dynamic leadership, has built a notable reputation in the South Florida real estate scene. In 2023 alone, she amassed over $500 million in closed sales through 1,694 transactions.
“Claudia’s impressive track record and the entrepreneurial spirit of Broker's LLC align perfectly with our values and vision,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “Claudia personifies determination, having immigrated from Colombia with less than $500 and a dream to start her own business so that she could lead with her values of honesty and integrity. We are so proud to welcome Claudia and her team as we look forward to empowering them to reach new heights with our support.”
The move promises significant benefits for Broker's LLC agents, offering them access to eXp Realty’s extensive global network, which spans 24 locations, and provides opportunities for cross-learning and international business expansion. This alliance underscores eXp's commitment to supporting agents in reaching unprecedented heights in their careers.
“We are thrilled to bring our proven experience and core values to a global platform,” said Serna. “This union not only reaffirms our commitment to our agents’ success, but also opens the door to unprecedented opportunities.”
Juan Morales, Serna’s son and Broker’s LLC marketing executive, added: “With eXp, our agents will have the ability to expand their real estate business internationally, leveraging eXp's globalization and extensive network in over 24 countries. This means access to broader market cross-learning opportunities and the chance to connect with professionals and clients around the globe.”
Serna’s journey from a determined immigrant to a recognized leader in the real estate sector exemplifies the resilience and success at the heart of eXp Realty. She founded Broker’s LLC in 2004 and for the next 20 years, grew her independent brokerage to more than 500 agents throughout South Florida. To read her full story, click here.
