In 2025, real estate is rapidly going virtual. The shift is clear: clients want fast, digital-first service, agents want freedom and flexibility, and brokers are tired of expensive offices and clunky software stacks.
But launching your own independent, scalable, virtual brokerage is still a challenge. Until now.
This comprehensive guide will walk you through how to build a virtual real estate brokerage from the ground up using the latest tools, with a focus on automation, compliance, marketing, and growth — powered by Brokurz, the AI operating system for modern brokerages.
Whether you are an independent broker tired of paying franchise fees or a top agent ready to launch your own brand, this guide is for you.
Why Virtual Brokerages Are Exploding in 2025
- Agent demand for flexibility: More agents work remotely than ever before.
- Client expectations have changed: Buyers and sellers expect digital onboarding, e-signatures, and instant communications.
- Costs must come down: Physical offices and redundant software shrink profitability.
- National scalability is key: Brokers no longer want to stay trapped in their local market.
Common Roadblocks Without the Right Platform
Even with these trends, brokers who try to go virtual hit these challenges:
- Fragmented software: juggling 10+ disconnected tools
