Description

In this episode of Edinburgh Business Stories, we sit down with Andy Whitmey, Director at Umega, Edinburgh's leading letting and estate agency. Andy shares the incredible journey of Umega—from its beginnings as a challenger in a traditional sector to becoming one of the highest-rated property agents in the UK.

With a passion for people and property, Andy discusses the core values that have fueled Umega’s growth—openness, positivity, playfulness, and progress. He opens up about the big decisions, the ones that aligned with their values and those they had to walk away from, and how those choices led to unexpected growth.

Andy also reflects on the emotional highs of industry recognition and the challenges of disrupting outdated practices in lettings, estate agency, and home repairs. His insights into building a purpose-driven business and smashing stereotypes in the housing sector are packed with lessons for anyone looking to lead with integrity and innovation.
