The real estate event of the season lit up Miami on Monday with high energy, major moments, and leadership in motion. From sunrise on the boardwalk to the neon glow of AI After Dark, eXpcon 2025 set the tone for an unforgettable week.
Laughter, lattes, and a steady stream of agents filled the Miami Beach Convention Center as eXpcon Miami 2025 came to life. Coffee in hand and badges shining, attendees from around the world greeted one another with smiles and plenty of “good to finally meet you” moments.
5K Run & Walk Benefiting eXtend a Hand
As agents laced up their sneakers, the 5K Run & Walk Benefiting eXtend a Hand, powered by HouseWhisper, set the pace for the day.
