Canada's First Co-Sponsored Mega Team Just Joined eXp. Here's the Strategy Behind It.
The Muve Team joined eXp Canada in May 2025 as, by eXp's account, the first team in eXp Canada to come across under a co-sponsorship arrangement. John Rota's Edmonton operation had 46 agents at the time.
The figures and quote below are from eXp Realty's announcement of the move.
What eXp reported
- $303 million CAD in 2024 sales volume
- 686 transactions closed
- 46 agents and 5 staff
- The first co-sponsored team in eXp Canada, based in Edmonton, Alberta
What co-sponsorship actually is
This is the reason the post is worth reading even if you will never sell a house in Alberta.
Normally an agent or team names one sponsor when they join eXp. That sponsor sits above them in the revenue share structure and is the person responsible for supporting them. Co-sponsorship splits that role between two parties — here, James Knull and Justin Havre, both established eXp producers in Canada.
The practical effect is two support relationships instead of one, and two networks to draw on. The practical cost is that the revenue share attached to the team is divided between them, and that responsibility shared can become responsibility diffused if it is not defined. If you are considering it, get the division of labour written down before you sign, not after.
"The systems, tools, and scale of eXp's model give us the edge to grow without sacrificing what makes us different — our relationships, our service, and our culture." — John Rota, quoted in eXp Realty's announcement of the move.
Why this matters to a New England agent
Only for one reason, and it is a real one: sponsorship is the single decision in joining eXp that you cannot easily undo, and most agents make it without knowing the options. Co-sponsorship is one of those options. Bean Group also supports an eXp Solo arrangement for agents who want sponsorship and referral access without operating under the Bean Group brand.
The structure underneath all of it — a seven-tier pool share funded from company dollar, tiers 1 to 3 opening automatically, and eXp's own disclosure that the median for a typical Tier 1 agent is $0 — is set out on our revenue share page. You can model your own downline on the calculator rather than relying on someone else's example.
How teams themselves are structured, including what qualifies as a Mega Team, is on the eXp teams page.
One habit worth keeping: verify program specifics at exptoolkit.com/revenueshare rather than trusting a recruiter's slide, ours included.
