Early life
Mauricio Umansky was born in Mexico to Eduardo Umansky and Estella Sneider on June 25, 1970. As a child, he struggled with neutropenia and was in and out of hospital for a number of years.

Career
Umansky began his career by starting a best selling clothing line called 90265.
The company did "quite well" and he was able to sell it at age 26 for a profit.
After selling the company, he began working at Hilton & Hyland, a real estate firm which was co-founded by his brother-in-law Rick Hilton. The real estate firm is based in Beverly Hills, California, and specializes in homes and estates in Beverly Hills, Holmby Hills, Bel-Air, Brentwood, Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Hollywood Hills, as well as estates from Santa Barbara to San Diego. [11] Umanksy's first sale at the firm was a $7.5 million home that belonged to Guraish Aldjufrie, his wife Kyle's ex-husband. [6]
In 2011, Umansky founded his own real estate firm The Agency.
It specializes in luxury properties in the Beverly Hills and surrounding area.
Both David Parnes and James Harris of *Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles * work at The Agency. Parnes stated, "Mauricio is a great guy, like genuine. He's a friend. He's a mentor. We go on listings with him. We sell loads of big, big high-end real estate with him. He's just a great guy... he's just a good, easygoing, smart, laid back but seriously ambitious at the same time, successful great guy." [12] One of Umansky's clients included basketball star Michael Jordan, who listed his 56,000-square-foot mansion for sale in Highland Park, Illinois in 2015. [13] [14] Other clients have included Sofia Vergara, Kim Kardashian, and Kanye West. [15] [16]
