Compass leads the market, but these eXp, Real are closing the gap

"Last year, agents at eXp Realty closed 343,091 transaction sides, representing 8.25% of the market according to RealTrends Verified data. Additionally, the firm's total sales volume came in at $155.56 billion. Late last week, eXp announced its acquisition of real estate franchisor NextHome for an undisclosed sum. While they report their results individually, in total, the NextHome franchises who qualified for the rankings data closed 2,890 transaction sides, totaling $957.731 million in sales volume in 2025."

"Although this acquisition may have expanded eXp into a multi-model platform, based on RealTrends Verified data it did not do much for its market share, bumping its share of transaction in 2025 to 8.32% and giving it 6.57% of the overall sales volume, up from 6.53% prior to the acquisition."

"In 2025, RealTrends Verified data shows that Real agents closed 131,047 transaction sides, valued at $65.22 billion. This is 3.15% of the market share by transaction side count and 2.74% of the market share by sales volume. But when combined with the NextHome franchises who qualified for the rankings data closed 2,890 transaction sides, totaling $957.731 million in sales volume in 2025."

"But when combined with the REMAX brand's 378,961.3 transaction sides and $165.746 billion in sales volume in 2025, things look a bit different. If it had been operating at the combined Real REMAX Group in 2025, the data shows that Real's market share, when combined with that of the firms under the REMAX brand, would have been 12.26% by transaction sides and 9.69% by sales volume."

Real reported 131,047 transaction sides worth $65.22 billion, equaling 3.15% by transaction sides and 2.74% by sales volume. Combined with REMAX’s 378,961.3 transaction sides and $165.746 billion in sales volume, Real’s combined market share would be 12.26% by transaction sides and 9.69% by sales volume, suggesting potential growth after the REMAX acquisition closes in the second half of the year.
