MORE ABOUT LORI:

Growing up in a small Arizona town taught Lori that your work ethic defines you, your reputation follows you, everyone has an important story, and common sense keeps you out of a whole lot of trouble. Before becoming a REALTOR®, Lori taught Middle and High School Language Arts, where she applied the values she learned in her hometown to help her students thrive not only as learners but also as individuals. These experiences shaped her ability to connect with people, understand their unique stories, and guide them toward success.

Running her real estate practice with these same principles has allowed it to flourish over the last 19 years. Lori's clients benefit from her deep knowledge of the community and hyper-local real estate trends. She has built a network of professional connections based on trust and excellent working relationships. Lori believes that everyone's story matters—whether buying, selling, or simply seeking a confidential consultation. From $42,000 to $3,000,000, Phoenicians have entrusted Lori Schneider with their valued real estate transactions since 2005.
