Early Life
Umansky was born on January 25, 1970. He grew up in Mexico as the son of popular Mexican media personality Estella Sneider. Mauricio has a younger sister, and they are both of Greek and Russian descent.
His upbringing was difficult because he was diagnosed with neutropenia, a disorder characterized by an unusually low white blood cell count. This was why he constantly visited the hospital as a child.
His family immigrated to the United States when he was six years old. Mauricio first enrolled at the University of Southern California but dropped out to pursue his entrepreneurship.
Real Estate Career
The aspiring businessman started his professional life with a profitable apparel line, which he sold for a massive profit at the age of 26. After this, he ventured into real estate by joining his brother-in-law’s firm, Hilton & Hyland.
Mauricio Umansky got off to a fast start, selling his first home for $7.5 million. By 2011, he was willing to establish his own real estate company, The Agency. He became its CEO after it’s launch.
