Welcome to the International eXpansion Podcast!
In this episode of the International eXpansion Podcast, Glenn Sanford sits down with Maria Brown, a two-time ICON agent based in Puerto Rico, originally from Ecuador. Maria shares how her background in marketing and passion for community connection helped her launch a thriving real estate business with her brand, Palmas Dream Homes, brokered by eXp Puerto Rico. She discusses how eXp’s agent-centric model—especially its global referral tools, cloud-based platform, and luxury division—allowed her to stand out in a competitive market.
Maria highlights the importance of service over sales, building trust through connection, and how collaboration within eXp’s international network has expanded her reach to places like Spain, the Dominican Republic, and Germany. She also details her use of Follow-Up Boss CRM and strategic digital campaigns managed alongside her husband. Maria encourages agents to embrace eXp’s supportive culture and take advantage of the innovative tools, equity opportunities, and worldwide community that empower them to grow without borders.
