While real estate is in her blood, her passion for helping others is truly what drives Laura Lucky’s success.

Having earned her Arizona Real Estate License at just 18 years old, Laura knew at a young age that joining her parents, Matt and Lisa Lucky, in the family real estate business was not simply her path of choice, but somewhat of a calling. Realizing that her appreciation of Scottsdale combined with her desire to be of service could lead to a satisfying profession, she set out to create her real estate career. “I’m privileged to work with my parents who have exceptional experience, knowledge, and expertise in the North Scottsdale community. As a tight-knit family jointly focused on our goals, the three of us are quite a force in local real estate!” Laura says with a brilliant smile.

As the #1 agent from among nearly 1,000 esteemed Russ Lyon | Sotheby’s agents for three years and ranked as one of the top 250 agents in the nation by The Wall Street Journal, The Luckys partially attribute their success to their self-imposed “15-minute rule.” Laura explains, “We acknowledged early on that the best way to serve our clients is to only take on business that’s within a 15-minute drive from our office. That way, we’re essentially always ‘on call’ and at the ready for any buyer or seller that we’re working with.”

Shortly after obtaining her real estate license, Laura graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing and International Business. Laura’s proficiency in marketing has become a hallmark of The Lucky Team and continues to help drive The Luckys to higher degrees of success. In addition to her aptitude for brand management and promotion, her training in international business presents her with a distinct vision and provides opportunities to aid real estate clients from all over the globe.

In 2013, Laura acquired her Broker License and is now an Associate Broker at Russ Lyon | Sotheby’s International Realty. In 2015, Laura was singled out as the “Emerging Realtor of the Year” and has been recognized as a “Top 40 Under 40” for the last four years by the Scottsdale Area Association of Realtors.

Both living and working in North Scottsdale, Laura has close ties to her community and the Valley as a whole. In addition to helping her real estate clients, Laura takes great satisfaction in actively advocating for several local organizations. Some of her happiest life moments have come from the hours devoted to these causes. It has truly been a win-win.

Her passion for helping animals has cultivated her interest and devotion as a volunteer and past board member for Foothills Animal Rescue. Not only does she work to organize their Pins for Paws fundraising event, Laura has committed to taking her service to the next level by opening her home to foster homeless animals until they find their forever families.

Laura enjoys serving her church family by assisting in the nursery every week at Christ Church of the Valley. Most recently, Laura has become involved with the STARS Institute which raises funds for children with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) and serves as a committee member for their annual Starry Starry Night Gala.

So, what spurs this energetic and dynamic woman in her non-working hours? You may find Laura working through a much-loved yoga, hot barre or pilates class at the North Scottsdale TruFusion fitness facility. As a self-proclaimed social butterfly, Laura loves meeting friends and clients over a bottle of cabernet at Troon Country Club or mingling at the dog park with her little pooch Charlie, a proud recent graduate of rattlesnake training school!

Perhaps it’s precisely that joie de vivre that keeps Laura enthusiastic, confident, determined and positive in just about every aspect of her life. One thing about Laura is never in doubt: she is always ready for a challenge!
