eXp UK has launched a commercial property division to offer services across office, retail, industrial, land and mixed-use sectors.
This comes as the commercial property sector is forecast to reach £8.1bn in revenue in 2025, with research showing the industry has grown by 56% over the past decade and seen year-on-year growth of 8.2%.
Commercial agents joining eXp UK will receive dedicated training, resources and support.
They will also be able to keep 70% of their commission, rising to 100% for top performers.
Rob Jones, head of eXp UK commercial, will lead the division.
Jones has held senior roles in national and international companies and has experience as a national sales director, CEO and managing director, including consultancy for the master franchise owner of Remax England and Wales.
Jones said: “We are giving ambitious and driven commercial real estate agents the opportunity to build their own business as part of eXp Commercial here in the UK as well as joining an international business.
“I have worked in this part of the sector, as well as lectured on the subject, and this is a unique opportunity to combine my entrepreneurial spirit with my passion for commercial property and bring a truly disruptive commercial offering to the UK market.
“The business we are building has to be seen to be believed. It isn’t just industry leading tools, technology, marketing, training and support – it’s industry defining.”
Adam Day, head of eXp UK and Europe, said: “The launch of commercial offering is a landmark moment, not just for our business but for the wider industry.
“For the first time, agents will have the chance to operate across both the residential and commercial property sectors under a single, comprehensive platform, giving them true flexibility to meet client needs across the market.
“The commercial property sector has grown substantially in the last decade, but the traditional agency model has left many agents unable to fully benefit from this momentum.”
Day added: “At eXp UK, we’re changing that by enabling commercial agents to take control of their business, maximise their earnings, and access the same cutting-edge support, training, and technology that has already transformed the residential sector.
“What’s more, our global community will allow them to fully maximise interest in UK commercial property on a global scale, not just a domestic one.”
