Chanel Rodriguez was raised in northwest Missouri and moved to Texas to pursue her Ph.D. in 2010. After a decade in Texas, she returned to the Kansas City area to raise her two children with her husband, Saul. With its tree-lined neighborhoods, world-famous BBQ, cultural activities, and sports teams, Kansas City was the perfect place for her family to call home. She began her career as a junior high and high school teacher, then transitioned to a college professor, before serving as the Chief Operating Officer for a small family business that grew to over 200 employees in just four years.
Eventually, she followed her passion for helping people achieve their dreams through real estate. Her background in education has given her the skills to guide clients through the biggest investment of their lives with clarity and confidence. Chanel prides herself on having a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and the ability to listen to her clients’ needs. Her goal is to ensure that every client feels fully informed and comfortable throughout the process of buying or selling a home, providing clear communication and support every step of the way.

Learning to see home from a distance
With their Oregon home on the market, buyers began sending Chanel listings across greater Kansas City, an area neither had visited. They wanted a basement and a yard where their dog could run. Until they could travel, they relied on Chanel’s recorded tours and the details she explained along the way.
Chanel grouped homes by region and compared their locations and features with the buyers’ priorities. In each video, she discussed the layout, possible maintenance needs and how their furniture might fit. Their feedback helped her refine the next round of tours.
When one buyer flew out, they visited sixteen properties over two days. An accepted offer followed, but an inspection investigation revealed a foundation issue. The buyers canceled that purchase and resumed their search.
After the buyers returned to Oregon, Chanel found another home and sent a recorded tour. They made an offer without visiting it in person. According to Chanel, their offer succeeded against three competing offers, and they closed in May 2026.
Chanel visited a few days after they moved in. This time, the buyers led the tour, showing her the finished basement and original hardwood floors they loved. The home they had first experienced through her videos was now their own.
