Key Takeaways: eXp Realty events combine large-scale conferences, regional rallies, and grassroots meetups to create real collaboration inside a virtual brokerage. These events reinforce agent community, support shared learning, and provide opportunities for in-person relationship building.

TL;DR About eXp Realty Events

  • eXp Realty hosts large national, regional, and local agent events
  • EXPCON is the flagship annual conference for training and networking
  • Regional rallies provide localized education and collaboration
  • Many sponsor teams host additional in-person and virtual events
  • Grassroots agent meetups are common and encouraged
  • Events support collaboration without requiring physical offices

eXp Realty events are in-person and virtual gatherings that support agent networking, shared learning, and community connection within a brokerage that operates without physical offices. Events range from the flagship annual conference, EXPCON, to regional rallies, sponsor-led meetups, and informally organized local gatherings.

A common misunderstanding is that a virtual brokerage model limits meaningful professional connection to online interaction only. eXp maintains a regular calendar of events at the national, regional, and local level that provide in-person relationship-building opportunities for agents across markets.

This article explains how eXp Realty events fit into the broader eXp Realty Community ecosystem available to eXp agents.

The following sections explain how EXPCON is structured, how regional rallies differ, how sponsor-led meetups work, and what locally organized agent gatherings typically involve:

How EXPCON is Structured

EXPCON is eXp Realty’s flagship multi-day annual conference covering training, brokerage updates, and agent networking. The agenda includes breakout sessions, keynotes from top producers, hands-on workshops, and structured networking opportunities. Attendees receive updates on eXp’s product development, tools, and business direction from eXp leadership.

Vendors and technology partners participate in EXPCON, giving agents direct access to tools and integrations relevant to their business operations.

Who Should Go?

EXPCON is open primarily to eXp agents but also welcomes brokers, industry professionals, vendors, and real estate practitioners considering a move to a virtual brokerage model.

Newer agents use EXPCON to build foundational knowledge and develop contacts across markets. Experienced agents engage with advanced sessions on strategy, team building, and production systems. Vendors interact directly with active practitioners who can provide feedback on their tools.

Why It Matters

This section explains why agents choose to attend eXp events, based on commonly reported experiences rather than guaranteed results. Agents commonly attend EXPCON to access hands-on training, real-world examples from active producers, and structured networking opportunities.

  • Learn what’s working right now in marketing, tech, social media, and lead gen.
  • Get behind-the-scenes access to eXp leadership’s vision and upcoming tools.
  • Meet the faces behind the profile pics you’ve been chatting with in Workplace all year.
  • Develop strategies and systems applicable to immediate business needs.

The eXp Realty Events App

The eXp Realty Events App supports conference navigation and agent-to-agent connection. Features include:

  • Customizing your EXPCON agenda and getting reminders before sessions start
  • Messaging other attendees for quick connections or coffee meetups
  • Scanning bios, workshop decks, and speaker updates on the fly

The app also supports post-event connection, allowing agents to schedule follow-up meetings with contacts made during the conference.

eXp Regional Rallies

eXp regional rallies are localized events that provide agents with market-specific education and networking without requiring travel to the annual national conference.

Regional rallies are held in various locations and provide a smaller-scale format for agents to engage with training and peer networking within their geographic area.

Regional rallies focus on localized connection and learning, and are a regular component of eXp’s community events calendar.

What’s the Point of These Regional Events?

Regional rallies exist to deliver market-specific training and to build professional relationships among agents in the same geographic area.

eXp regional rallies give agents a space to trade market-specific tactics with people who understand their local pain points. Think less “generic real estate hype,” and more “here’s how I’m closing listings in this exact zip code.”

You’ll get:

  • Training tailored to regional market conditions, competition, and client expectations
  • Workshops led by agents with documented experience in the local market
  • Networking with agents you might actually see again (hello, referral network!)

Topics vary by region and typically address the market conditions, pricing dynamics, and client behavior specific to the area.

Why Regional Events Matter (Even If You Go to eXpcon)

Regional events complement EXPCON by allowing agents to revisit or extend topics from the national conference in a smaller, more focused setting.

They also build pre-conference momentum. Some rallies offer sneak peeks at upcoming eXpcon themes, giving you a head start. Others let you dive deeper into past topics you wanted more time with—just in a smaller, more hands-on setting.

Relationship Building at Regional Events

Regional events provide agents with access to both well-established producers and nearby colleagues who share market context. The smaller format facilitates more direct conversation than national conferences.

These connections often develop into referral partnerships, co-marketing arrangements, and collaborative working relationships.

eXp Realty has more than 80,000 agents across multiple countries. Within that large network, many agents establish a closer community through their sponsor team, which functions as a smaller, more cohesive group within the broader brokerage.

Some sponsor groups host in-person meetups that supplement the brokerage-level events. These are not official eXp Realty events and vary significantly in format and frequency depending on how each sponsor organizes their team.

What Happens at Sponsor Events?

Sponsor meetup formats vary by group. Some run structured training sessions that go deeper than standard brokerage offerings. Others use a more informal format such as dinners, coworking sessions, or social gatherings designed to build personal relationships among team members.

Sponsor teams that hold regular virtual sessions often find that in-person meetups build on existing relationships rather than introducing people for the first time.

Sponsor meetups typically serve to:

  • Build professional relationships within the team
  • Strengthen your referral connections inside the team
  • Share strategies and address current business challenges in a peer setting

Not Every Sponsor Does This—But the Good Ones Do

Most sponsors at eXp do not organize local events or ongoing team gatherings. Sponsor-led community activity varies significantly, and many sponsors provide limited engagement after an agent joins.

Sponsors who operate structured ecosystems may offer weekly masterminds, agent training sessions, and periodic in-person meetups. These teams represent a smaller subset of the total eXp sponsor population.

Agents who want structured in-person connection beyond brokerage-level events should evaluate sponsor team activity as part of their sponsor selection process.

Local Agent Meetups

Many eXp agents organize informal local gatherings independent of official brokerage or sponsor events. These grassroots meetups exist because the brokerage model does not provide a physical office as a default meeting place.

These real estate agent networking events might be as simple as coffee with colleagues or as organized as a standing monthly meetup. Some groups even host weekly Zoom calls, so by the time you meet face-to-face, you already know who loves scripts and who’s always multitasking with their mic off.

Why Do Agents Bother?

eXp’s shared incentive structures and collaboration-oriented platforms create conditions for agents to connect locally even without formal organizational support from the brokerage.

Agents gather to:

  • Swap strategies, templates, and war stories
  • Roleplay scripts or talk through tricky transactions
  • Celebrate wins (and survive the occasional appraisal fail)
  • Get that sense of team camaraderie—minus the office drama

Local meetups sometimes occur around EXPCON or regional rallies, giving agents an opportunity to continue conversations from those events. Others develop independently on a recurring schedule.

Grassroots Format

Local meetups are agent-organized and operate without formal structure or corporate involvement. In a brokerage without physical offices, these gatherings provide a form of in-person connection that complements the virtual collaboration tools available through the brokerage.

Whether you’re looking for tactical advice, referral partners, or just some humans who understand the chaos of back-to-back showings—local agent meetups give you a place to plug in.

What Agents Also Ask About eXp Realty Events

Are eXp Realty events required for agents?

Attendance at eXp Realty events is optional. Agents choose which events to attend based on their goals, schedule, and learning preferences. Events are designed to add value through collaboration and education, not to impose participation requirements.

How do eXp events compare to traditional brokerage conferences?

eXp events tend to emphasize peer collaboration and real-world application rather than hierarchical presentations. Because agents already collaborate virtually year-round, in-person events often feel more relational and immediately productive than traditional office-based conferences.

Who benefits most from attending eXp regional rallies?

Agents who want localized insight and nearby referral relationships benefit most from regional rallies. These events are particularly useful for agents focused on market-specific strategy, pricing trends, and building professional connections within driving distance.

Why This Matters Before You Join eXp Realty

eXp Realty events are designed to support collaboration, learning, and agent connection, but they do not operate in isolation or replace the broader brokerage experience.

At eXp Realty, all agents receive the same core platform, including compliance, compensation, technology, and access to company divisions. What differs is the sponsor ecosystem an agent aligns with and how much organized collaboration exists beyond brokerage-level resources.

The sponsor is selected during the application process, before most agents have used the brokerage’s systems, explored its tools, or seen how sponsorship works in real life. Knowing where sponsorship fits within eXp Realty’s overall structure helps agents view this decision in the right context.

Some sponsors organize regular virtual or in-person gatherings, while others provide little ongoing engagement, which is why sponsor ecosystem evaluation matters for agents who value structured community.
