Dawn Olson is a full-time Realtor with McColly Real Estate, proudly serving Bourbonnais, Bradley, Manteno, Kankakee, and surrounding communities since 2005. With nearly two decades of experience and hundreds of successful closings, she has earned a reputation for delivering exceptional results with professionalism, warmth, and deep local expertise. Dawn holds a Business Degree in Marketing and Advertising, giving her a strong foundation in strategic promotion, negotiation, and communication. She's also an expert in social media marketing and advertising, using innovative campaigns to connect listings with the right buyers faster and more effectively. Her professional designations reflect a commitment to continual growth and specialized service. She is a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS®) -- a distinction held by less than 3% of Realtors nationwide -- as well as a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®), Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR®), Certified Foreclosure Specialist, Loan Signing Agent, and Remote Online Notary. These credentials allow her to guide clients through every type of transaction -- from luxury and relocation to downsizing and complex closings -- with precision and care. Beyond real estate, Dawn is deeply involved in her community. She helps organize and promote local events like the Bradley 315 Music Fest, supports causes such as Renville Cares' Turkey for Tots, and participates in National Night Out and other local fundraisers. She's also a passionate advocate for senior housing and placement, working closely with families and care providers to help older adults find safe, comfortable living options. When she's not working with clients, Dawn enjoys live music, community festivals, design projects, photography, and discovering the best small businesses and restaurants across Kankakee County. Her mix of creativity, business savvy, and genuine care for people is what keeps her clients coming back -- and referring their friends and family year after year.
