The best buyer’s agent isn’t just skilled at finding homes — they’re skilled at protecting your money. ShopProp’s managing broker brings 19 years of real estate, construction, and finance experience to every Santa Clara transaction, and returns up to $37,505 at closing on a $1,700,000 home. Experience and value — you shouldn’t have to choose.
In a market like Santa Clara, where the median home is $1,700,000, choosing the right buyer’s agent can mean tens of thousands of dollars saved or lost. Here’s what separates the best from the rest:
Most buyers work with a single agent who may have limited experience. ShopProp’s managing broker Rob Luecke is involved in every transaction — higher licensing, deeper expertise, better outcomes.
Rob’s background spans real estate, construction, and finance. That means he can evaluate a property’s structural condition, understand the financial implications of every deal term, and negotiate from a position of knowledge.
4,000+ transactions since 2007. ShopProp has navigated multiple market cycles — 2008 downturn, COVID market, post-pandemic correction — and delivered consistent results for Santa Clara buyers.
The best agent doesn’t just find you a home — they save you money. ShopProp’s flat fee from $4,995* means up to $37,505 back on a $1,700,000 home. Expert service and the industry’s largest rebate.

In Santa Clara’s competitive market, negotiation skill can save — or cost — you tens of thousands. Rob’s 19 years of experience includes thousands of successful negotiations in high-value markets. Strategy, not just paperwork.
A background in construction means Rob can identify potential issues during property tours that most agents miss. Foundation concerns, structural modifications, unpermitted work — knowledge that protects your investment.
Understanding finance means understanding your total cost — mortgage implications, tax consequences, investment value. ShopProp evaluates each purchase holistically, not just as a transaction to close.
All that expertise, and ShopProp still returns up to $37,505 to you at closing. No other buyer’s agent in Santa Clara combines this level of skill with this level of value.
