Anchored in Service: Allison Chance Builds a Military-Focused Team Culture in Northeast Florida

In the competitive world of real estate, few agents are building something as purposeful as Allison Chance. Founder of Anchored Real Estate Group, Allison stands out for her deep empathy, relentless drive, and unwavering commitment to military families. With roots in Florida and a career built through cross-country moves, Allison now leads a thriving team in Northeast Florida.

This article uses insights from the full episode transcript at tracyhayespodcast.com/45.

Why Allison Chance Stands Out

Allison launched Anchored Real Estate Group with more than just a logo in mind. Her mission is personal: as the wife of an active-duty U.S. Navy officer, she’s lived the military relocation lifestyle herself. She’s moved eight times in ten years—she gets it.

She’s also a University of Florida graduate and a former hospitality professional, bringing high-level organization, people skills, and grace-under-pressure to every transaction. Today, she’s the go-to military relocation expert near Mayport Naval Base, NAS Jacksonville, and the U.S. Marine Corps Blount Island Command.

"We give back a portion of our commission to anyone who serves—military, law enforcement, teachers, nurses," she says. "We know how tough it is to be in public service, especially in COVID times."【14†source】

Quotes That Show Her Grit and Vision

"The deployments are rough, but honestly, what’s even tougher is picking up and moving to another location."【14†source】

"We want to maintain satisfaction. If I can’t give 100%, I don’t want to do it."【14†source】

"My team really does work as a team. We divide and conquer. That’s how we get buyers into homes within hours of listings going live."【14†source】

Local Expertise, Grounded in Community

Anchored Real Estate Group serves buyers and sellers across Jacksonville, Mayport, NAS Jacksonville, Nocatee, Ponte Vedra, and the Beaches. Allison understands the nuances of relocating to each of these areas—whether it’s a new duty station, PCS orders, or post-retirement relocation.

She supports both buyers and sellers with:

VA loan guidance
Military PCS planning
Local school zone insight (especially for Nocatee and St. Johns County)
Relocation timelines aligned with deployment windows

Real-World Stories That Define Her Path

Military Relocation, From Both Sides: Allison's own journey includes building her business in Jacksonville, relocating to California, then returning and launching Anchored. While pregnant and starting over in a brand-new market, she closed her first California deal by December 2017.
Mentoring Future Top Agents: Blair Owen (episode 173) joined Anchored after being furloughed during COVID. Under Allison's guidance, she closed 18 homes and over $6M in her first year.
Community Commitment: Allison's involvement extends beyond real estate. She's active in Navy spouse circles, Jacksonville Mom, and her local church. She makes sure every military client feels supported, from base to closing.
