Early life
Drew Scott was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, on April 28, 1978, the youngest of brothers James Daniel (by two years) and his identical twin brother Jonathan (by four minutes). His birth was a surprise to his parents—Jim and Joanne Scott—who had no idea she was giving birth to a single child.
Jim's father immigrated from Scotland as a child with aspirations of being the kind of cowboy he had seen on television. He served as an actor, stuntman, and assistant director until the late 1970s. He had decided to concentrate on raising his family, and the family had relocated to a horse farm in Maple Ridge, Texas.
While Joanne continued her work as a paralegal in downtown Vancouver, she worked as a youth counsellor. On the twins' seventh birthday, their father encouraged them to work, so they started JAM, making nylon covered hangers. They went from door to door until a woman selling American paraphernalia in Japan ordered thousands.
James will often renovate their houses, and the boys will be paid as early as eight years old to install and repair fences, decks, and barns. The twins would often rearrange the furniture in their families' house even as children. Drew excelled in athletics, both coaching and playing on the basketball and volleyball teams as youth. The family migrated to Alberta after graduation, just as the twins were heading to Calgary to attend university.
Personal life
In 2010, Drew met Linda Phan, his wife, at a Toronto Fashion Week function. They lived together in the Las Vegas home that Drew also shares with his twin starting in 2014. However, Phan drives with Scott as the Creative Director of Scott Brothers Entertainment, "overseeing their digital content, product and apparel lines, and marketing efforts" is something he says about twice a year. Scott has said that he and Phan are "workaholics" and that "stepping outside the home office is the first step toward a good date." They got engaged on December 13, 2016, and were married in Italy on May 12, 2018. The ceremony featured elements of their respective Scottish and Vietnamese roots, and it was the subject of a documentary called Drew and Linda Say What I Do, which aired on TLC on June 2, 2018. Drew co-wrote (along with Victoria Shaw and Chad Carlson) and performed "You Chose Me" for his bride's wedding, as well as a accompanying music video, which was posted on YouTube on June 2, 2018. They also expressed their desire to have children. The couple announced in October 2017 that they would live in Los Angeles, California, and that they intend to raise their future children there. After a two-year fertility journey that included IUI and IVF treatments, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child in May 2022. Their son was born on May 4, 2022, and they were born on May 4, 2022.
Although Scott isn't a citizen of the United States, he has a Democratic viewpoint. In September 2016, he endorsed Hillary Clinton on his Twitter page. Tony Robbins, a life coach, also considers himself a personal hero, and he has used Robbins' "incantations"—a form of verbal concretization, to achieve his objectives.
Scott is a basketball fan. Scott grew up playing basketball with his brothers, but in a GQ interview, he was the most ardent one, with some of them spending four or five hours a day. He participated in both high school and college, and is said to have had a 43-inch vertical jump. He starred on his college basketball team but was suspended before the first season and never played in a single match. Scott has participated in numerous celebrity charity tournaments, including Josh Hutcherson's Nike 3-on-3 Basketball at L.A. Live/Staples Center. He has participated in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game twice, and he took home a trophy for the Shooting Stars Celebrity Competition in 2012.

Career
Scott began performing in theater, improv, and sketch comedy at a young age. The twins were apprentice clowns who performed at parties and functions as children, eventually charging as much as C$100 per hour. However, Drew began to concentrate more on basketball as Jonathan's obsession with magic grew. As a youth and young adult, he also dabbled in acting, including appearances on Smallville, Breaker High, and Madison. The brothers were enrolled in the University of Calgary, and Scott, a long-serving athlete, studied kinesiology. Despite their plans to become entertainers, the twins didn't want to be "starving artists" and, after watching an informercial by Carleton Sheets, they felt that real estate investment would "ease the financial purgatory of being out-of-work actors." They decided on a seven-bedroom rental house across the street from their university after investigating the subject and first semester in college. They cleaned and repaired it, then sublet the remaining five rooms, netting a $800 per month. They assumed the house with a $250 down payment, undertook conservative renovations with the rental money, and sold it a year later for $50,000. For the next 15 years, they continued to buy and "flip" homes at high profit margins. Jonathan went to school for building and designing, and later became licensed as a builder. Drew's trade, although he did larger repairs, was mainly limited to building siding and tile. They also supported themselves with a variety of careers, including flight attendant, personal trainer, bikini store manager, busboy, website designer, and mall cop. The twins, as well as their older brother—co-founded Dividian Production Group in 2002, an independent film production company, and Drew continued acting, directing, and producing on the side.

However, he was already 25 years old, but after feeling like he was going backwards and rejoined Jonathan in the real estate market after a few weeks. Drew decided to enroll in a real estate course and obtained his license in 2004, putting his attention to real estate transactions after having had several bad experiences with realtors. The twins formed Scott Real Estate Inc., a company that was created to provide customers with, if not selling, and renovating homes, as well as design assistance and staging open houses.

Scott began taking acting and voice classes, networking with influential people in the field, and climbing in the ranks on movie production crews, all while keeping a color-coded spreadsheet to track it all. As the year came to an end, the year came to an end, but he discovered himself over $100,000 in debt and not as far ahead as he had expected. In an interview with Entrepreneur magazine, Scott relates that he listened to a Jim Cuddy song named "Pull Me Through" on one sleepless night and realized that he had to go back to his roots.' Jonathan sent Jonathan an email requesting Scott Real Estate's marketing template. He obtained a realtor's license in Vancouver and opened a Scott Real Estate branch there soon.
