BELLINGHAM, Wash., May 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eXp Realty®, “the most agent-centric real estate brokerage on the planet™” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), today announced that top-producing Arizona team leader Scott Kumler and The Kumler Group have joined the company. Formerly with My Home Group, where his 53-member team ranked among the top five, The Kumler Group closed over $80 million in volume across 192 transactions in 2024 alone.
“My goal is to give unparalleled value and support to our agents,” said Kumler. “After months of research, it was clear that eXp was the best place to deliver that.”
The move comes under the sponsorship of Joshua Smith, host of the GSD Mode Podcast and Kumler’s longtime mentor. “Joshua has been one of the biggest influences on my career. Joining under him just made sense,” said Kumler. “Plus, our agents now get access to coaching from Mike Sherrard, which adds even more value.”
Kumler noted that although eXp’s revenue-share model is well known, it was the mentorship ecosystem and supportive leadership that sealed the deal. “I’m extremely loyal, and I won’t ask my agents to follow unless I’m 100% sold,” he said. “eXp gave me total confidence in our ability to scale support, coaching, and training.”
Kumler has been consistently ranked in the top 1% of Realtors® in Arizona and was recognized as a Top 100 solo agent among more than 2,000 agents before forming his elite residential real estate team. The team, which operates across the Phoenix Valley, is known for its agent-first culture, strategic growth, and unwavering commitment to mentorship.
“Scott’s unwavering focus on agent development and leadership aligns perfectly with our values,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “His decision to bring a high-performing team like The Kumler Group to eXp reflects our continued growth among the industry’s top professionals.”
When not leading one of Arizona’s top teams, Kumler is an avid traveler committed to exploring one new U.S. state and one new country each year. His business philosophy centers on authentic leadership, scalable agent support, and a commitment to building a culture of excellence.
