Andrew Whytock has been writing for the Real Estate Witch team since 2020. His professional writing experience stretches back to 2014, when he started writing product descriptions for an e-commerce store. Andrew's real estate writing has focused on emerging real estate tech models like iBuyers that offer alternatives to the traditional home sale. Along the way, he's chatted with executives at some of the largest tech-enabled real estate startups in the country, and mystery-shopped to find out what the tech-enabled selling experience is like for consumers.

When he's not working with the Real Estate Witch team, Andrew spends his time Googling DIY tips for fixing things around his 100-year-old home. So far he's installed flooring, wired in bathroom ceiling vents, painted entire levels, built cabinets, fixed plumbing issues, and laid a tile backsplash. But he's no expert, and he's called in tradesmen for backup on more than one occasion.

Andrew also likes to get outdoors with his family, especially during the summer when they can tow their smaller camper to a campground and spend the night around a fire roasting marshmallows.
