Cory Robertson is the Principal at Corwin Partners, where he heads sales, recruiting, and developer relations.
Cory operates at the forefront of new development home sales in Illinois. With over 30 years of experience, he stands as a leading innovator with proven sales success through both the boom-and-bust cycles of the past three decades. Throughout his career, Cory led successful marketing and sales campaigns for over one hundred projects. His experience with gameplanning and deal analysis spanned across more than sixteen states. And he proudly managed over one hundred sales representatives thus far in his career, supervising and selling over $1 billion in real estate transactions.
After growing up on a construction site and graduating from the University of Michigan, Cory moved to Chicago. He joined to the sales and marketing team for a national homebuilder and has not looked back. Cory’s creative solutions and collaborative attitude led to him and his teams succeeding where others fell short. Unafraid to try a new idea, he led one of the first dedicated real estate development internet sales teams in Chicago, proving internet leads could be captured and effectively converted into sales. Cory oversaw sales and marketing efforts at multiple sites simultaneously, for some of the most prominent developers in the country including Centex Homes, William Ryan Homes, Garrison Partners, Allen Edwin Homes, and Belgravia Group. And now, he has cultivated a reputation for recruiting, training, and leading the most successful new development sales teams in the Chicago market.
In 2015, Jameson Sotheby’s International Realty recruited Cory to create their Developer Services program and start Corwin Partners. Cory initiated the use of on-site sales representatives at new developments, and under his direction, the new team proved out locations others did not think could succeed and where previous agents had failed. His developed skills in residential product development, pricing strategy, and comprehensive sales and marketing gameplans sets him and his team apart in the market and deliver results.
The success of Corwin Partners launched Jameson Sotheby’s into the number one brokerage position for Chicago mid-rise new construction listings and sales volume.
Cory and his two sons enjoy relaxing at their cottage in Grand Haven, Michigan, and hiking National Parks. So far, they visited 21 of 62, and counting.
