Early Life
He was born Scott E. Yancy on July 9, 1969, in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in nearby Studio City. Scott attended North Hollywood High School and graduated in 1987.
Real Estate Career
His first real estate deal was at the early age of 14. After he received an insurance settlement to the tune of $30,000, he purchased a small second trust deed on a home in Studio City, California that earned him 14% interest.
During college, he was hired as a runner by real estate attorney and investor Walter J. Plumb. After college, Scott continued to work with Plumb and assisted him in several real estate transactions, including major ones like the purchase of an apartment complex with 40 units. The two worked together to convert the apartments to upscale condos. They also worked out several land deals, and ended up buying and dividing the land into over 3,000 feet of lots on which to place the luxury living quarters. Yancey began working solo, developing department stores around the Southwest states. He eventually sold his department stores and returned to real estate in 1994, when he moved to Los Vegas.
After a few more early successes, he became a full-time house flipper. Yancey really gained momentum in real estate after hearing that you could buy houses in Las Vegas for under $50,000. Today, Scott Yancey is the owner and managing partner of Goliath Company which owns and manages many income properties around Las Vegas. Together with his wife Amie, Scott buys old houses, refurbishes them then either sells them for a profit or rents them to tenants. He has more than 20 years of experience in the real estate industry.
