eXp UK, the platform for personal estate agents and estate agency businesses, has announced the launch of its buyer representation programme, an initiative designed to allow its member agents the opportunity to boost their earnings, with the delivery of this latest announcement being driven by Richard Rawlings – the foremost estate agency trainer in the UK.
Head of eXp UK, Adam Day:
“The eXp model has dramatically altered the landscape of UK estate agency since launch and we’ve continued to evolve our proposition so that our member agents not only have greater freedom and a better work life balance, but also the opportunity to increase their earnings as, when and how they see fit.”
Buyer representation is a common practice in many other countries, whereby an agent works on behalf of a homebuyer to help them identify suitable properties, whilst also negotiating on their behalf and helping to drive the purchase through to completion.
Not only can the expertise of an agent dramatically improve the property purchasing process for buyers, but it can also be particularly effective in cases where sellers also utilise the same agent for their onward purchase.
Estate agent trainer, Richard Rawlings:
“Buyer representation is very much the next chapter in British Estate agency. Having now developed a “Buyer Representation Lite” system for the UK market, I’m delighted to be rolling this out across the whole of eXp UK with a view to doubling the revenues of those agents who choose to embrace it.”
eXp UK unveiled its latest offering to member agents at its sold-out conference in Birmingham just a few weeks back, an offering which will see eXp UK agents potentially double their income by earning extra revenue if they generate fees from buyer representation, with the income going towards the agents existing cap, and with no additional charges involved in offering this service to clients.
eXp UK also announced that prominent estate agent trainer, Richard Rawlings, would be the one spearheading this new initiative, ensuring that all eXp UK agents who decide to add an additional string to their bow are ready to hit the ground running.
Head of eXp UK, Adam Day:
“The launch of our buyer representation programme and the significant investment we have made in working with someone like Richard Rawlings, demonstrates our belief in how we can continue to evolve the estate agency model in the UK, while helping agents at eXp to continue to benefit financially by creating new revenue opportunities for them. We also believe that having an agent acting on behalf of a buyer can be incredibly advantageous for the nation’s property market.
“Whether they’re taking a step onto the ladder for the first time, or tackling an onward purchase alongside their own sale, the expertise and guidance of an agent can help them to make their move with greater speed and stability.”
