What if the key to a 40-year career in appraisal isn’t grinding harder but thinking smarter?In this inspiring episode of Appraisers on Purpose, industry veteran Scott Voltz shares how he built a lasting, trusted appraisal practice through bold focus, investor-level thinking, and a deep belief in showing up when it matters most.
Scott didn’t chase every assignment or market trend. He built a career by specializing geographically staking his claim in a part of northern Los Angeles County and becoming the go-to expert.

For Scott, appraisal isn’t just a profession. It’s a calling grounded in trust, shaped by resilience, and proven over time.
