✨ And just like that… the little orange brokerage with the big heart entered a whole new chapter. 🧡
Today, NextHome announced its acquisition by eXp World Holdings — and after sitting with the news for a bit, I genuinely believe this has the potential to be a good thing…a VERY good thing.
What gives me confidence is this:
NextHome was never just about branding, technology, or market share for me. 🧡🏡
It was about PEOPLE.
It was about creating a real estate experience that felt more human, more honest, more relationship-driven, and less transactional.
That part doesn’t change.
If anything, I believe this gives brokerages like ours access to even stronger infrastructure, systems, innovation, and support while still preserving the culture that made so many of us choose NextHome in the first place.
One thing from Keith Robinson & James Dwiggins comments today really stuck with me:
eXp and NextHome don’t have to become the same thing to work well together.
Different strengths. Same mission.
Real estate is evolving quickly, and the companies that survive and thrive will be the ones willing to adapt WITHOUT losing their identity in the process.
I’m excited.
I’m hopeful.
And I’m very interested to see what we build from here. 🚀🧡
