Buying Beverly Hills Season 1 is a roller coaster of enviable multimillion-dollar listings and office drama. Between open houses in Los Angeles’ most luxurious neighborhoods, viewers are given a peek into the complicated lives of The Agency’s ambitious employees — all led by CEO Mauricio Umansky. While Mauricio is one of the top real estate agents in the country, he still needs to figure out how to work with his daughters, Farrah Brittany and newer agent Alexia Umansky. For her part, Alexia is unmistakably hungry to prove she’s more than just the boss’ kid.  

Outside of the Umansky family fold, the rest of Buying Beverly Hills’ diligent agents are coming together — and battling it out — for the best deals. Take co-workers Ben Belack and Joey Ben-Zvi: One day, the colleagues are trading barbs. The next, they’re considering an alliance. So where is everyone now that the dust has settled on filming Season 1? And who managed to sell all those lavish listings? We’ve got the inside — or, say, off-market — scoop. 

Mauricio Umansky

When we last see The Agency’s head honcho, the Umansky Team is united — but unsure of what the future holds. Farrah, once unsure whether it was time to leave the family business, asks her stepfather to hire extra help as a compromise. Today, Mauricio is “truly impressed” by his crew, particularly his daughters. “I am so proud of my daughters, and watching them grow in their professional careers is one of the greatest things I have been able to be part of,” he tells Tudum. 

Since production wrapped, The Agency has continued to expand into new markets like the Bahamas and Silicon Valley. Although Mauricio flirts with the idea of naming a successor throughout Season 1, he admits he doesn’t “intend to retire anytime soon.” Instead, Mauricio is “excited for the next generation of leaders working at The Agency” and can’t wait for viewers to see what they do next. 

Alexia Umansky

Alexia enters Buying Beverly Hills as one of the firm’s most junior agents. She says she has “grown so much” since Season 1 ended production. While Alexia counts the sale of her family’s Bel Air home as the “dearest” to her heart, she’s sold five homes over $5 million since filming. 

“I’ve learned it is really important not to skip all the steps along the way that are essential to get to that next level,” she says. “I really put myself out there with cameras watching my every move (and mistake), but I hope people, especially young professionals no matter their industry, will be able to resonate with my professional journey.”  

Although Alexia and Joey have a heart-to-heart about possible “feelings” toward the end of Season 1, she confirms they are currently “great friends.” “Every one of our fellow agents and castmates [has] a positive professional relationship and respect for each other,” Alexia says. 

Farrah Brittany

Farrah’s partner, Alex Manos, proposes in Episode 6. She is still enjoying the “exciting” engaged life she so looked forward to, telling Tudum, “I didn’t want to rush immediately into wedding planning.”  

Beyond nuptial preparations, Farrah has been focusing on “putting systems and practices in place” that ensure the success of the Umansky Team. They’ve added new members to the squad and more resources to support growth. “We’ve made a lot of progress,” Farrah reveals — including the sale of the palatial Orum House seen in the finale. But that doesn’t mean the team is taking a rest. As Farrah says, “There’s always room for improvement.”  

Joey Ben-Zvi

A lot has changed (professionally) for Joey since we last saw him. One of his biggest challenges on the series is deciding whether to remain on the Umansky Team or to join Ben Belack’s team. Ultimately, Joey picks the Umanskys. But now, nearly a year after filming wrapped, Joey is proud to say he has “branched off” to start his own team. He continues to be “very collaborative” with his Agency co-workers.    

“It has been a major challenge, but evidently, it proved worth it,” Joey tells Tudum. After all, he has sold over $75 million in real estate since the start of Buying Beverly Hills filming. 

When it comes to his frenemy-turned-ally Ben, Joey says, “The relationship may have started off a bit contentious, but I’m grateful for the way it’s blossomed into a beautiful relationship.” He even jokes they have “just the slightest bit of mutual respect for one another.” 

Ben Belack 

Ben and Joey's Drama | 'Buying Beverly Hills' S1E1Joey has some thoughts on the Beverly Hills super realtor.

Ben has a similarly playful take on Joey. “Every time I start to think of him as a peer, he’ll respond to some requested advice of mine with, ‘Thank you, Father,’” Ben tells Tudum. But Ben admits he now views Joey as “a hardworking and thoughtful agent” instead of a “silver-spooned” Angeleno. 

The rest of Ben’s life has evolved as well. Professionally, his team has doubled in size and is on track to grow to 50 members. “It’s a lot to juggle, but I’m newly inspired trying to find ways for my team members to reach new heights,” he says. His current levels look pretty good, however, since Ben sold every one of his properties shown in Season 1. 

It’s this kind of success that pushed Ben to question whether he wanted to remain with The Agency in Season 1. “Mauricio, Santiago and many others feel like family to me,” he says now. “That said, this is a business, and with that comes an ever-evolving environment of wants and needs.” 

Sonika Vaid

Why Sonika Gave Up Music | 'Buying Beverly Hills' S1E7Is she being true to herself?

Confidence is the name of the game for former American Idol contestant Sonika in Buying Beverly Hills. And it’s skyrocketing these days as she remains on Jon Grauman’s team. “I now put myself in situations and rooms where I would normally feel uncomfortable and am seeing a change for the better,” she tells Tudum. “I am becoming more comfortable with being uncomfortable.”  

Outside of the office, Sonika has also experienced some personal changes. She and Season 1 boyfriend Kevin are “taking some time apart” after deciding to buy a home together in the finale. “We have so much admiration and love for one another. However, I am trying to solidify my career and future before I settle down completely,” she says. “Right now, I am just taking time for myself.” Still, the pair remain “great friends.” 

Jon Grauman 

Ever the determined businessman, Jon’s only looking for bigger achievements. Since filming, his team has grown, and their current goal is to sell $1 billion in real estate in 2023. Like Ben, Jon has sold all of his Season 1 listings — save for the $139 million “Eighth Wonder of the World” property on Bel Air Road. “I’m still working on trying to sell that one,” he tells Tudum. 

Brandon Graves 

After a season of working to build his professional life, Brandon has turned his focus on more romantic pursuits. “I’m now dating and hoping to find a suitable partner to share my life with,” he tells Tudum. 

Still, no Agency employee can forget the hustle either. “I’ve been working hard at building my business and navigating the changing market,” he continues. “I’ve grown closer to my colleagues and co-stars through this shared filming experience. My presence in the company has grown, and it’s been cool to meet agents from other Agency offices.” 

Allie Lutz Rosenberger 

Life really does come at you fast. When Allie began filming Buying Beverly Hills, she was pregnant with her third daughter. Now, that little one just celebrated her first birthday last month. 

But Allie is staying occupied at home and at the office. “Since filming, I’ve been busy opening up our new South Bay office in Manhattan Beach as one of the new managing partners,” she announced to Tudum. Allie has been recruiting for the South Bay office and her own personal team. It seems unlikely she’ll have to wait long for talent to jump on her bandwagon — Allie already has a $7.499 million oceanfront listing in Palos Verdes. 

Melissa Platt

Melissa admits to Tudum that “having every little thing you do” at work filmed for the world to see can be “extremely intimidating.” Yet she’s thriving as Buying Beverly Hills rolls out. She credits the experience as a “boost” to her career confidence and says her referral business has now “exploded.” 

While Melissa is currently a solo agent, things might change soon. “I have been approached to join a top team at The Agency, so stay tuned…” she teases.
