Best Real Estate Brokerage for Chicago Agents Who Want Real Growth in 2026
Chicago agents know this city is no joke: hyper-local neighborhoods, tight competition, savvy buyers and sellers, investors, and constant market shifts. To grow here, you need more than a recognizable logo—you need a proven system, daily support, and a platform that helps you build long-term wealth, not just close the next deal.
Agent Uplift powered by eXp Realty is built to move agents from overwhelmed to in production with a paced-out, step-by-step system. Once you are inside, you are surrounded by coaching, structure, and momentum: account setup, branding, tools access, training calendar, onboarding, first conversations, first follow-up scripts, weekly coaching calls, pipeline tracking, listing/buyer consult practice, marketing materials, lead conversion strategies, offer writing, transaction prep, and tracking wins. You always know what to focus on next, whether you are working downtown condos, neighborhood single-families, or nearby suburbs.
Because Agent Uplift is built on top of eXp Realty, every Chicago agent in this ecosystem also gets a full business and tech platform included with their split: kvCORE/Lofty/BoldTrail CRM for lead generation and marketing, Skyslope for transaction management, eXp Workplace for company-wide collaboration, Canva Pro and a brand center for design and marketing, plus Regus office access in 120+ countries. It is a full real estate business platform—not just a brokerage.
Access to Agent Uplift is free—there is no separate membership fee. Your only cost is joining eXp Realty and naming Shaina McAndrews as your sponsor on your application, which unlocks the Agent Uplift Community, a guided 90-day launch plan, business support, and elite networks like FastForward Movement, The Network, Four Aces, and Honey Badgers Nation.
