About Chanel

A lifelong Chicagoan, Chanel Poston is a savvy real estate professional dedicated to helping her clients realize their dreams. Upon earning her Bachelor’s Degree in Economics from Eastern Illinois University, Chanel embarked on a successful career in sales, working in a variety of fields from telecommunications and logistics to retail and finance. It was a professional path that allowed her to sharpen the skills and strengths that now benefit her real estate clients: She is a creative problem solver, an excellent communicator, and a sharp negotiator. Thoughtful and analytical, Chanel also brings her financial acumen to each transaction. First-time home buyers especially appreciate that she is a credit specialist who will ensure that they come to the table prepared to discuss their financing options and any available grants.

Entrepreneurial by nature, Chanel views herself as an educator, advocate and guide for her clients, whether they are buying or selling a home or looking for an investment opportunity. Steadfastly focused on getting them to the finish line, she has a passion and a flair for turning seemingly impossible dreams into reality. But Chanel is also a compassionate realist who will ensure that her client’s goals are achievable and desirable—and that they make financial sense now and in the future. With deep insight and knowledge about Chicago’s many neighborhoods and suburban communities, she is able to help her buyers choose not only the home that is right for them, but the perfect neighborhood as well.

In addition to her Dream Town clients, Chanel is equally passionate about her community—devoting her time, energy and talents to a number of local organizations including Big Brothers Big Sisters and the Women’s Council of Chicago. She is also co-chair of the Young Professionals Network of the Oak Park River Forest Chamber of Commerce. When not assisting her clients or volunteering her time, you’re likely to find Chanel taking full advantage of her hometown. She especially love’s Chicago’s vibrant food scene and is always happy to share her most recent dining discovery.
