Julia Corkey and Vickie Schoenfeld, the duo behind Team Elite Realtors, are celebrating 20 years in real estate this year. A trusted name in the western suburbs, Team Elite has served 60 cities, sold over 600 homes and generated more than $153 million in sales since its founding in the early 2000s. Their proven expertise and unwavering commitment to clients make them the trusted choice for exceptional real estate services.
Team Elite has navigated every market shift imaginable. From the housing bubble and Great Recession to COVID-19’s unexpected real estate boom and today’s rising interest rates, they are proof that success stems from adaptability, strong negotiation skills and market knowledge. Their hands-on approach ensures seamless transactions, resulting in 90% of their business coming from client referrals.
“From first-time buyers to luxury estates, our passion remains the same: helping clients build long-term wealth through real estate,” Corkey and Schoenfeld say. “Homeownership should be within reach for everyone, no matter the budget or property type.”
Team Elite’s dedication to client success is evident in every client transaction and Google review, exemplifying the results they consistently deliver.
Team Elite’s expertise and market leadership have earned them the prestigious Baird & Warner Founder’s Club award and recognition as top producers in the Chicago Tribune, Naperville Glancer Magazine and Top Agent Magazine. As members of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, they continue to expand their influence in the luxury market.
Beyond real estate, Corkey and Schoenfeld lead an active lifestyle, from boating and pickleball to cheering on their children at sporting events. Their commitment to the community shines through volunteering, especially supporting underserved seniors.
As Corkey and Schoenfeld celebrate 20 years in business, they’re aiming for $20 million in sales in 2025 — a testament to two decades of success and client dedication.
