SCHAUMBURG, Ill., May 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Illinois-based mortgage lender SUCCESS^® Lending is celebrating its one-year anniversary partnership as an affiliate of eXp Realty, “the most agent-centric real estate brokerage on the planet™” and the core subsidiary of eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), at the 2023 eXp Shareholder Summit in Orlando, Florida.

Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from special guest speaker Glenn Stearns, an entrepreneur, philanthropist and the star of the Discovery Channel series “Undercover Billionaire,” who shared his personal journey to success in his upcoming memoir, “InteGRITy,” scheduled to be released May 23, 2023.

Stearns' story of resilience and persistence is an inspiration to many, as he shares his life's ups and downs, including being labeled "most likely to fail" and "the biggest loser" as a child, growing up in a low-income suburb of Baltimore with alcoholic parents, failing fourth grade and becoming a father at the age of 14.

Despite the odds, Stearns went on to achieve wild success in business, founding Stearns Lending LLC, one of the largest privately held mortgage lending companies in the U.S. Stearns attributes his resilience to putting "people before profit" and having transparency and integrity in lending standards.

Free advance copies of Glenn Stearns' new book, “InteGRITy,” will be given away to attendees of eXp Realty’s Shareholder Summit. Glenn Stearns will be available to sign copies of his book at the SUCCESS Lending booth on Thursday, May 18. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet the entrepreneur, ask him questions about his book and life experiences, and get a personalized autograph.

Stearns’ memoir will be available for purchase at retailers nationwide including Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Target.com, BooksaMillion.com and others.
