About

Three decades building real estate in India

Sam Chopra has spent more than 30 years shaping how real estate is practised in India. He founded RE/MAX India, bringing an organised, professional brokerage model to a fragmented market, and is a former President and Vice Chairman of the National Association of Realtors India (NAR India). Today he is President & CEO of eXp India — the India arm of NASDAQ-listed eXp World Holdings, one of the world's largest cloud-based brokerages.

A Fellow Chartered Accountant by training and a member of the NAREDCO management council, Sam works at the intersection of operating leadership, regulation, and capital. He writes and speaks regularly on the future of the brokerage profession, India's real estate growth story, NRI and cross-border investment, and how technology is reshaping the industry.

Through his podcast and his writing, his aim is simple: to make the business of Indian real estate clearer, more transparent, and more rewarding for the agents, founders and investors building within it.
