Exp Realty Adds Longtime Keller Williams Leader Mike Mendoza

eXp Realty has added former Major League Baseball player and longtime real estate executive Mike Mendoza to eXp Realty Luxury, ending his 29-year tenure with Keller Williams.

Mendoza brings more than 40 years of real estate experience and approximately 6,500 career transactions.

He previously founded and served as operating principal of Keller Williams’ Northwest region, where he helped grow the company to 30 market centers and more than 3,500 agents across Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Alaska.

“Mike’s career is what happens when talent, discipline and an entrepreneurial mindset come together,” said Leo Pareja, CEO of eXp Realty. “His decision to choose eXp after 29 years speaks volumes about where experienced leaders see the strongest opportunities for their teams and families. We are proud to welcome Mike, Jude, Josh and the entire Mendoza Team to eXp.”

Mendoza said conversations with longtime real estate colleagues Lou Ronayne and Gene Frederick introduced him to eXp’s model and convinced him the brokerage offered the right platform for his team’s future.

“There is more opportunity for me, my son Josh, and the rest of our team with eXp,” Mendoza said. “It’s a cutting-edge company with technology that is also focused on agent support. I like the forward-looking mentality to help agents grow and succeed in a constantly shifting industry.”

Joining Mendoza at eXp are his wife and business partner, Jude Mendoza; his son, Josh Mendoza; and agents Rob Castellini, Cheryl Kvasnicka, Megan Bradley, Brad Turk and Taylor Turk.

The Mendoza Team serves residential and luxury clients throughout the Phoenix metropolitan area.
