Mauricio Umansky

Founder and CEO of The Agency, Mauricio Umansky set out to create an industry-disrupting brokerage that would redefine the business of real estate. Since its inception in 2011, The Agency has done that and much more, now recognized by The Financial Times as one of America’s Fastest Growing Companies and ranking among the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country for five consecutive years. The firm has expanded to employ nearly 1,000 agents across over 50 offices in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean.

A finalist for the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year 2017 Awards, Mauricio has accomplished what no other agent has—ranking among the Top Ten agents in the country for seven straight years according to The Wall Street Journal REAL Trends annual list. Mauricio also holds the distinction of selling the most homes in the country priced above $20M+. He has represented some of the world’s most noteworthy properties, including the Playboy Mansion, the first house in L.A. to sell above the $100M mark, and residences previously owned by notable figures such as Michael Jackson, Michael Jordan, and Prince.

Mauricio and The Agency also represent some of the world’s top developers and resort brands, including One&Only, Rosewood, and Ritz-Carlton. A proud member of The Young Presidents Organization (YPO) and a notable figure on Swanepoel’s 2022 Power200, Mauricio ranks as a top real estate executive in the U.S. His commitment to philanthropy continues as he serves on the board of Giveback Homes and supports The Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles and the National Breast Cancer Association. His insights on real estate and business have been featured in Forbes, International Banker, and Entrepreneur. Additionally, Mauricio is the author of "The Dealmaker: How to Succeed in Business & Life Through Dedication, Determination & Disruption," a #1 New Release on Amazon in Work Life Balance and Business.
