From Football Fields to Follow-Ups: A Discipline-Driven Start

Luke's background as a 6'7" college football player shaped his mindset long before he ever wrote his first contract. After moving to Jacksonville and learning he was going to be a father, Luke got serious about a real estate career — and serious fast. He joined the Sarah Rocco team at Keller Williams, where he was thrust into a real estate bootcamp that trained him not just to survive, but thrive.

With Sarah’s guidance and operations support from Samantha Cox (now of Opsuite), Luke built the foundational systems that would change the course of his life — from daily time-blocking to CRM mastery and tracking every referral.

The Power of Mentorship and Structure

Luke credits Sarah Rocco’s relentless accountability with saving his career. Weekly WIG (Wildly Important Goal) sessions, follow-up tracking, and structured prospecting routines became the backbone of his business. Her message was clear: Don’t reinvent the wheel — just master the basics.

Today, Luke carries that same ethos forward, mentoring newer agents while running a lean, high-touch business built on relationships, not cold calls.

Building Christmas Homes JAX: Faith, Family, and Follow-Through

Now an independent solo agent, Luke’s production is booming — with 27 closed or pending units in Q1 of 2024 alone. His business is fueled by agent referrals, a raving fan base, and a meticulous CRM that tracks every lead source and follow-up.

Through gifts like his “Christmas in July” campaign and pop-by visits, Luke is always staying top of mind and delivering value with a personal touch. And he’s just getting started.

For Agents Ready to Level Up

Luke’s story is a blueprint for success through mentorship, discipline, and strategic scaling. He doesn’t run a big team — but he’s open to mentoring and guiding the right agents who want to learn from someone who’s built it right from day one.

If you’re stuck or wondering what’s next in your business, this is the episode to inspire your next move.
