Actions speak louder than words. That’s what Michael Rook believes to be the key factor to his success. Born in Jonesboro, Arkansas, he grew up hearing this phrase preached by his parents so much that it became ingrained in his life philosophy. Michael grew up in the Arkansas Delta surrounded by rice, bean, corn, and cotton farms—some of which he worked on in his youth. He attended Valley View High School and Arkansas State University before going to work in the natural gas distribution industry. After a travel-extensive career in natural gas, Michael longed to plant his roots back in the dirt he grew up on, and find a career that capitalized on his passion for the outdoors.

At Midwest Land Group, he’s able to combine that passion with his extensive local market knowledge to see others achieve their goals of land ownership. Michael pours himself into every transaction as if it were his own. Getting a new client is easy, but he knows that it takes honesty and integrity to keep a client, and you can rest assured in that. He doesn’t tell clients he’ll give them 100%; he proves it. When Michael’s not working, you can find him hunting all kinds of game, fishing, golfing or skiing. He resides in Jonesboro, Arkansas, with his wife, Anna, and daughter, Kingston.
