The Leverage Team

What The Leverage Team does

The Leverage Team, operating as The Leverage Team at eXp Realty, is a residential real estate agent team of approximately 8 agents led by Founder Tyler Phelps. The team serves individual home buyers, sellers, and real estate investors across five Connecticut counties (Hartford, Tolland, Middlesex, New Haven, Litchfield) and the Boston, Massachusetts metro. Service is delivered through a team-based model in which clients work with multiple agents rather than a single point of contact, with stated emphasis on consistent communication, transaction transparency, and integrated financing/insurance support via partners at Liberty Mutual (Len Whitten) and Archer Insurance.

The team's technology stack is centered on the Brivity real estate platform, which powers IDX-based property search, listing management, buyer alert workflows, and a home value estimator on leverageteamct.com. Marketing assets include professional photography, virtual tours, 3D walkthroughs, and video, supported by blog content and presence on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Twitter. The team rebranded from Keller Williams Legacy Partners to eXp Realty in July 2022 and previously earned the Breakthrough Award (2018, 2019), Platinum Award (2020), and Quadruple Gold (2021).

The business model is a standard residential real estate commission model: the team earns transaction-based commissions on completed buyer and seller representations, shared with eXp Realty under the brokerage's standard split structure. Reported scale metrics include 211 properties listed, a 6-day average days-on-market, 15 years of experience, and a stated 100% customer satisfaction rate. Pricing is negotiated per transaction and not publicly disclosed; there is no recurring SaaS or subscription revenue stream. Customer segments are horizontal, split between primary residence buyers/sellers and a secondary real estate investor segment pursuing flips and investment transactions.
