    My Story

    Why I almost said no

    In July 2026, my church asked me to share my story on a Sunday morning, and my first instinct was to say no. I said yes, and in about 35 minutes I share things I'd usually keep closer: addiction, chasing money and then status, workaholism, and two chronic health issues.

    Family Transaction History

    Husband. Father. Mentor. Real Estate Entrepreneur. Investor.

    Dave Hooke owns a family of real estate enterprises in the Carlisle and South Central Pennsylvania area —  including a sales team, brokerages, private lending, investment, title services, property management, and community support. With roots reaching back to 1943, his work is built on the kind of trust that only decades of faithful service can produce.

    Married to his high school girlfriend and a father of three boys, Dave is driven by a desire to build healthy businesses, serve his community, and help others find freedom and purpose.

    "The goal has never been to build the biggest company — it's been to build healthy companies, worthy of the trust people place in us."

    — Dave Hooke
