Air Force Veteran and Charleston Realtor Jennifer Dane Named 2026 South Carolina Vetrepreneur of the Year
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Jennifer Dane, an Air Force veteran and Charleston REALTOR® with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Palmetto, has been named the 2026 South Carolina Vetrepreneur of the Year by Military Friendly®. The recognition highlights her work as a veteran entrepreneur serving military relocation, VA home financing, and real estate clients across the South Carolina Lowcountry.
Military Friendly, operated by VIQTORY, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business, names a Vetrepreneur® of the Year for each state. The award recognizes veteran business owners for how they build and run their companies. Dane’s public award profile is published by Military Friendly at militaryfriendly.com.
Dane served six years in the United States Air Force as an all-source intelligence analyst and later deepened that research training through CIA methodology. After military service, she led a nonprofit in the government, justice, and national security space and earned Project Management Professional (PMP) certification before building a Charleston real estate practice focused on preparation, direct counsel, and military-family expertise.
She created USMilitaryMoves.com to help Permanent Change of Station (PCS) families navigate relocation with clearer guidance than a generic packet and a lockbox. In Charleston, her practice centers on Joint Base Charleston, Naval Weapons Station, Coast Guard Sector Charleston, VA loans, assumable mortgages, and research-first representation for buyers and sellers.
In September 2026, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Palmetto announced Dane’s affiliation with the independently owned Charleston brokerage. The firm’s welcome feature is available at bhgpalmetto.com.
