}}Scott E. Yancey (born July 9, 1969)[1] is a TV personality, businessman, real estate investor, and author.[2] He is best known for his role on the A&E television series, Flipping Vegas, a modern reality TV show in which Scott and his wife, Amie Yancey[3] purchase and repair dilapidated homes in the Las Vegas Valley, and attempt to flip them for profit.[4]

Early life

Yancey was born on July 9, 1969 in Los Angeles County, California,[1] and raised in Studio City, California,[5] where he attended North Hollywood High School.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}

Personal life

Yancey married his future Flipping Vegas costar, Amie, on January 26, 2000.[6]{{better source|date=July 2016}} Yancey has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.[7] As of 2014, the couple had a pet dog, a dachshund named Tallulah.[8] The couple also owns two Rhodesian ridgeback dogs named Flip and Zuma, two friesian horses named Henke and Tieme, two mini pigs named Bacon Bits and Lucy, and a mini donkey named JackAss.[9]

Career

Real estate

Yancey made his first real estate deal at the age of 14,[6] when he received an insurance settlement of $30,000, which he used to purchase the 2nd deed of trust for a home mortgage as an investment with a 14% interest rate.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}

While enrolled in college, Yancey was hired to be a runner by Walter J. Plumb III, a Real Estate Attorney and investor. Yancey continued to work with Plumb assisting in multiple real estate[10] transactions such as the purchase of a 40-unit apartment complex and converting it to condos along with assembling dozens of land deals subdividing them into over 3000 lots. Now working independently of Plumb, Yancey began developing retail department stores in Las Vegas, Provo, Utah, and Tempe, Arizona.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}

After selling his department stores and choosing to return to his real estate roots, Yancey relocated to Las Vegas in 1994.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}} In 2008, Yancey founded the Las Vegas-based Goliath Company,[11] a real estate brokerage and investment firm. Goliath Company focuses on investment properties, the buy & hold approach and finding land to entitle and subsidize by selling to large private companies; which they have managed to do for a few thousand lots.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}

Flipping Vegas

{{main article|Flipping Vegas}}

In 2010, Yancey and Lovable Scoundrels Productions created the television series Flipping Vegas.[12] A&E originally premiered the series on June 18, 2011. In addition to starring in the show,[13] Yancey also served as an executive producer. The show concluded its fifth season on September 27, 2014.

Yancey Events

The Yanceys created Yancey Events as a way to help others learn about investing in real estate.[14] [15] Using their stardom from Flipping Vegas, coupled with the knowledge and experience they have gained from years in the business, salespeople working for the company travel across the United States and sell educational seminars on how to properly invest in real estate.[14] Many participants of the events have criticized them as being a scam.[15]

[16][17]

Charity

In one episode of Flipping Vegas, the Yanceys donated a home to a wounded veteran.[18]

Publications

Yancey has published two books:

  • Go Time (2012), a 250-page book inspired by people who taught Yancey about real estate.[19]
  • Flipping Your Way to Real Estate Profits (2015), a 221-page book offering advice to financially challenged investors on how to make profits beyond flipping houses.[20]
