Your numbers
How much are you leaving on the table?
In Portugal, many agencies pay their agents 15 to 30% of the commission. Set the sliders to your own year and compare.
At your agency
€50,000
Your share, before tax.
With eXp
€80,000
75% up to the €20,000 cap, then 100%. Excludes revenue share and stock.
With eXp: €30,000 more than your current year.
Illustration only, based on the direct eXp split in Portugal: 75/25 with a €20,000 annual cap; after the cap, only a small admin fee per transaction. Joining the Team works differently: see Two ways in below. Excludes revenue share, stock awards and country-specific costs. Splits and caps vary by country.
Why now
Your split is year one. Revenue share is the long game.
This is the direction real estate is taking. In the US, eXp is the No. 1 brokerage by number of transactions. In the UK, it took on more new listings than any other agency brand in early 2026. In Portugal, eXp agents already sell more than 1,000 homes a year, and the network is only getting started.
eXp is opening up Europe right now, and in Portugal it is still early. Join before the growth and you build the network others join into.
Here is the magic of eXp. You offer agents a better deal: higher commission, a fair brokerage built around the agent, and a place in one of the strongest real estate networks in the world. Every agent who joins through you and grows their business grows your revenue share too. They pay nothing for it, because eXp pays your share, not them. Once vested, it keeps paying even when you slow down.
It is a revolution in the industry, and 87,000 agents around the world have already made the move.

Two ways in
Independent or Team?
Same brokerage, two ways in. Come in as an independent agent: you keep the highest split, run your own business, and have the whole eXp network behind you. Or join the Team: you get the full support and the tools to get off to a fast start, with leads, marketing, follow-up and weekly coaching, so you close more deals, sooner. You can move from the Team to Independent whenever you like, in Portugal or abroad. Either way, you are part of the network of agents I sponsor at eXp.
Independent agent

€20,000 cap, reached at about €80,000 in commission.
You have the clients. You know how to win listings. Keep what you earn.
Right for you if

- You run your own marketing and follow-up, or want to
- You want the highest split from day one
What you get
- 75% from day one, 100% after the €20,000 annual cap

Team

€10,000 team cap, reached at about €40,000.
A smaller split of a bigger business. The tools and support to make you grow faster.
Right for you if
- You are new to real estate, or new to this market
- You would rather sell than run marketing, admin and follow-up
- You want leads, coaching and a complete system from day one
What you get
- Weekly check-ins through your launch, then ongoing coaching and mentoring from me
- Your tools set up for you, with a system proven to bring results fast
- Marketing material ready to go: flyers, business cards and more

- New to the business? You work under eXp’s AMI licence, with compliance handled
- A clear path up, all the way to leading your own team
- Switch to Independent at any time
Grow your business by more than 20% and the Team pays you more than going Independent. At €120,000 in commission on the Team you take home about €80,000, the same as €100,000 on your own, and the tools, the support and the leads are built to get you there.
Either way, your name, your listings and your clients stay yours. Part-time or full-time, you choose.
Why eXp Realty
Four reasons agents are leaving traditional agencies.
Splits that actually favour the agent
75/25 in Portugal, with an annual cap of €20,000. Once you have paid the cap, you keep 100% of every commission for the rest of your year, minus a small admin fee per deal. No desk fees, no royalties, no franchise fees. Splits and caps vary by country.
Revenue share, for life
Sponsor agents into eXp and earn a share of eXp’s revenue from their deals every month, up to seven tiers deep. It costs them nothing, and it doesn’t stop when you stop selling. The closest thing to a pension in real estate.
Stock awards. Real equity.
eXp is listed on NASDAQ under the ticker AGNT. Hit production milestones and you earn shares. You stop renting your career and start owning part of it.
Global mobility, from day one
eXp operates in 30 countries. Move from Lagos to Lisbon, Lisbon to London, London to Dubai. Your sponsor tree and your revenue share move with you, and so does the back office. Where a country requires a local qualification, you add it there.

eXp vs the rest
The honest comparison
How eXp compares with a traditional Portuguese agency and an agent network, on what decides how much of your work you keep.
| What matters | eXp | Traditional Portuguese agency | Agent networkiad, SAFTI, Zome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Commission you keep | Independent: 75% to 100% after a €20,000 cap. Team: 50%, rising to 75% after a €10,000 cap. | As little as 15% to 30% | Typically 50% to 70% |
| Monthly fixed cost | €100 a month for the platform, no desk fee | Desk fees and office charges | Pack or subscription fees |
| Portal advertising | Included, paid by eXp | Paid by the agency | Often paid by you |
| Training | Yes, eXp University and weekly coaching | Limited | Variable |
| Technology and CRM | Full cloud suite included | Basic | Variable |
| Revenue share | Yes, 7 tiers, paid for life | No | Some, fewer tiers |
| Shares (NASDAQ: AGNT) | Yes | No | No |
| International mobility | 30 countries, one back office | No | Rare |
| Tools and support | On the Team: weekly check-ins at launch, tools set up for you, flyers and business cards | Varies by agency | Mostly do-it-yourself |
| Your own brand and clients | Fully yours | Usually the agency's | Shared with the network |
The bottom line: plenty of networks have copied parts of the eXp model. None gives you all of it: the highest split, revenue share for life, shares in the company and 30 countries, for €100 a month.
Indicative, based on typical market terms. Splits, caps and fees vary by agency, network and country.
Tools and support
AI tools that run the jobs you do by hand.
eXp gives you the economics. These tools give you back your time. I have spent countless hours researching AI and refining skills that make an agent’s day-to-day work faster and better. Not five, but dozens, each tuned to one real estate job, working inside your own inbox, WhatsApp, CRM and website, and improved every week with what we learn in the field. They are built for our market and no one else here has them yet. That is your competitive advantage. Here are five of them.

Lead follow-up in ten minutes a day
Every morning the system reads your pipeline, finds the leads going cold and drafts a message for each in your voice. You read, adjust and send.

Seller valuations in under 30 minutes
From your notes on a property to a finished valuation with comparables and a suggested asking price. The owner gets a clear, polished answer the same day.

Branded client shortlists in one click
A list of properties becomes a page on your own website, with your name on it. Clients comment, hide homes and build a viewing list. Sent by WhatsApp.

Content that publishes itself
Blog posts, carousels, reels and a market brief, drafted by AI, edited by you and scheduled on every channel. You stay visible without spending your weekends at a keyboard.

Market intelligence on tap
Daily and weekly Algarve briefs and monthly reports on law, tax, currency and demand, with sources. Be the agent who knows what is going on.
Real outputs from the tools. Client names and details changed.
What this means for you
Never lose a lead
Every client followed up on time, in your voice. No one slips through the cracks.
Your brand on everything
Every email, shortlist, valuation and post carries your name and your look.
Service clients remember
Fast, polished, personal answers at every step of the sale.
The result: a level of service that wins clients, so you close more deals, faster.
Training and support
What you actually get
Six layers of training and support, from your first day to your first specialisation.
eXp University
Live training every week, plus an on-demand library: prospecting, listings, negotiation, marketing, legal and tax. For beginners and experienced agents.
A sponsor who shows up
I am your sponsor and mentor, with weekly coaching. Real guidance from someone closing deals in this market, not a recorded webinar you watch alone.
AI tools for every job
Dozens of AI skills that run the jobs you would otherwise do by hand: lead follow-up, valuations, client shortlists, content and market intelligence. In your voice, inside your tools, set up for you.
Onboarding that gets you live
A structured first 30 days. Your tools set up, your brand in place, your first leads to work. You start strong instead of from scratch.
Every tool included
CRM, transaction management, a training portal and advertising on the main national and international portals. No separate portal bill every month.
Specialisations as you grow
Move into luxury, investment or international referral work when you are ready. eXp operates in 30 countries, so your business can travel with you.
Who built this, and why
I'm Steve Marqué. I founded SunnySteve.
Twenty-five years of real estate experience. I started in Belgium, building a serious book of business. In the Algarve since 2018, first as an expat buyer, working as an agent here since 2024 and with eXp Realty since January 2026. I speak English, French, Portuguese and Spanish, which matters when your clients fly in from four different countries in the same month.
SunnySteve was born from a simple gap. Traditional agencies keep up to 85% of your commission. eXp flips that, with economics that are fair to the agent. But starting on eXp alone is hard, and that is where the team comes in: the agents I sponsor and mentor. Our tools and support are how we run the business, and eXp is what makes the economics work for everyone in it. You build your own brand, not someone else’s, with AI built in from day one.
If that’s you, this is the conversation worth having.
I built these tools for my own business first. On the Team, you get the same ones I use every day.

Honest answers
What agents ask before joining.
Two ways into the same brokerage. As an Independent you keep 75% of every commission from day one and 100% once you have paid the €20,000 annual cap, and you run your own operation with me as your sponsor and mentor. On the Team you keep 50% to start and 75% once you have capped at €10,000. In exchange, our tools and support run your marketing, follow-up, valuations, shortlists and content, and you work team leads alongside your own.
Because of what it replaces, and what it adds. A marketing agency, a follow-up assistant, content production, a CRM and lead generation would cost €1,500 to €2,500 a month, whether you close or not. The tools and support are also built to make you sell more: grow your business by more than 20% and the Team pays you more than going Independent. The team contribution only exists when you earn. To be clear: it continues after you cap, so a Team agent reaches 75%, not 100%. If you would rather run your own operation and keep the maximum split, the Independent path is there.
Yes, at any time. Many agents start on the Team while they build their pipeline, then go Independent once their own operation can carry itself. Nothing is locked, and your clients and listings stay yours either way.
Yes. In Portugal agents work under the brokerage’s AMI licence (eXp’s is 18470), so you can start while you learn the trade, with compliance, contracts and training handled. You get the tools, the support and team leads from day one, so you earn while you build. And the team cap is only €10,000, so your split improves faster than you might expect.
No. You use our tools, but your name, your face, your voice and your listings stay yours. The Team brings the system and the standard, and eXp is the brokerage and the legal layer. Both sit behind you. Your clients still hire you.
Most agents move once their pending deals have closed. We map out the timing together so you don’t lose a single commission. No pressure, no rushed exits.
When you sponsor another agent into eXp, you earn a percentage of eXp’s share of their commission, paid monthly, up to seven tiers deep as your network grows. It doesn’t reduce what they earn: it is eXp’s share, redirected to you. Real numbers and projections are in the full deck.
A startup fee of €149 to activate your account, then €100 a month for the cloud platform (CRM, transaction management, training portal, all the tech). After you cap, the only other cost is a small admin fee per transaction. No desk fees, no royalties, no office contribution and no portal fees. The same costs apply on both paths.
eXp does. Your listings go out to the main national and international portals at no cost to you. For an independent agent in Portugal, portal advertising is usually one of the biggest fixed costs, often hundreds of euros a month before you sell anything. Here it disappears from your costs, on both paths.
Yes. eXp operates in 30 countries. You join eXp in your own country, with me as your sponsor, on either path. You get the same tools and the same mentoring, plus a referral pipeline whenever your clients look at homes in the Algarve.
Three things. One standard: the same service, response time and care from every agent in the team. Our AI tools: dozens of skills built on Claude, each one plugged into your own tools and running a real job for you, from lead follow-up and valuations to client shortlists, content and market intelligence. And weekly coaching from a working Algarve agent who uses all of it, not a coach selling a course.
No. eXp is a brokerage listed on NASDAQ (ticker AGNT). Every commission comes from a real property sale. Revenue share is a portion of eXp’s own share of each commission, paid to the agents who sponsored the agent. The company is audited and reports to the SEC every quarter.
