Janene Chandler
Janene Chandler, an African American woman, was born and raised in the Bronx, New York. She is a strong, talented visionary that wears multiple hats as an entrepreneur, investor, motivational speaker, performance coach, and activist. She is well known as the founder and creator of the Deal Broker Real Estate Auctions and Summit.
With two decades of experience in real estate investing, in 2010 Chandler founded Realize Real Estate, a real estate investment company that coached and managed assets for the novice Real Estate Investor. With the merger of Realize Real Estate, with Chandler Investments RE, Chandler has managed over $100 million in assets. Chandler focused on growing private residential portfolios for clients who were risk-averse. In 2014, Chandler dissolved Chandler Investments to focus on The Deal Broker Real Estate Auctions and other business opportunities as a speaker and coach.
It wasn’t until 2018 that Chandler began to look at the potential of the Cannabis industry and has since become hooked. Her new passion has led to the development of companies such as Vigor, the leading cannabis consulting firm in Georgia, and CDXX & Friends– the first-ever Members only Cannabis Cooperative. In addition to her business endeavors, Chandler is a passionate advocate for fair Cannabis legislation that recognizes the hardships the Marijuana prohibition has had on minorities while taking a proactive approach to reparations.
In January 2020, Ms. Chandler established “The Real Hustle,” now known as “Team Deal Broker” a non-traditional, business and real estate coaching firm designed to help people grow spiritually and financially while maintaining balance in all areas of life. Team Deal Broker provides financial education, open ethical and political discussions, business opportunities and more. She states “While I am a work in progress and am still finding myself spiritually, I understand the calling I have on my life. In my desire to not only leave a legacy but to directly help and influence people for the better, I have opened up and am ready to share my walk with the masses. I hope ‘Team Deal Broker' will help many because I know you all will help me.”
