They remain his greatest source of inspiration and the driving force behind his commitment to helping other families build lasting financial security and peace of mind.

We’re glad you found us. 

Chris Sanchez built Sanchez Wealth Management Group around a simple conviction: wealth management should be proactive, personal, and built for the life you actually want to live. For years, the Jacksonville team has helped clients plan around the four risks that may arise in retirement:   

  • How long your money needs to last 
  • What inflation will do to it 
  • When market returns arrive 
  • What healthcare will cost along the way.  

In September 2026, Chris and the team, including advisors Joshua Mandelkorn and Dawn Nicoles, joined Modern Wealth Management.   

They continue serving their Jacksonville clients from the same office on Belfort Road, with the same personalized, fiduciary guidance they’ve provided for years, now backed by the full Modern Wealth Advantage. 

Modern Wealth Management Jacksonville (formerly Sanchez Wealth Management Group

Northeast Florida is a place people move to on purpose. Retirees and pre-retirees arrive for the coast, the communities, and the tax climate. Professionals build careers at the region’s anchor employers in healthcare, finance, and logistics. Military families put down roots around NAS Jacksonville and Naval Station Mayport. And many of them discover the same two things: moving to a state with no income tax does not mean the tax planning is done, and a retirement that could last 30 years needs a real plan for longevity, inflation, the timing of market returns, and healthcare costs. 

The Modern Wealth Jacksonville team is built for these questions. They bring years of retirement income and risk planning experience, deep roots in the Jacksonville community, and the full Modern Wealth Advantage to clients throughout Jacksonville, the Beaches, and Northeast Florida. 

Enjoy. Prepare. Connect.  

At Modern Wealth Management Jacksonville, our goal is the same as it is across every office in our network: to help you enjoy today, prepare for tomorrow, and connect with the causes and the people you care about most. That’s what drives every conversation we have, every plan we build, and every review we conduct alongside you.  

A Team That Works Together for You  

Your Jacksonville advisor team has spent years helping clients develop strategies designed to turn savings into retirement income. They work alongside subject matter specialists in tax planningestate planninginsurance, and investment management, all collaborating on a connected plan that addresses every part of your financial picture. 

Advantage Offerings: Jacksonville

Plan throughout the year with tax efficiency in mind. 

Florida has no state income tax, but that doesn't mean your tax planning is finished. Your Jacksonville advisor team works alongside Modern Wealth's tax professionals year-round on the decisions that still matter: the timing of Roth conversions, Required Minimum Distributions, Medicare income thresholds, charitable giving, and the opportunities that come with establishing Florida residency. In the years just before and after retirement, year-round coordination between your financial plan and tax strategy may help improve tax efficiency and support more informed financial decisions, depending on your individual circumstances. 

Investments built for the retirement you’re planning for. 

When you're near or in retirement, the order in which market returns arrive can matter as much as the returns themselves. Your Jacksonville advisor team builds disciplined portfolios designed with that reality in mind, using a goals-based approach built on low-cost index funds and ETFs, complemented by individual securities where they add real value. Products are tools, not strategies. Your investment strategy starts with your goals, your timeline, and your risk tolerance, and stays connected to your plan as markets and life change. 

Protecting the people and causes you care about most. 

Estate planning is about more than the right documents. It's about making sure your wishes are clear, legally sound, and woven into every part of your financial plan. Your Jacksonville advisor team works alongside Modern Wealth's estate planning specialists to align your wills, trusts, beneficiary designations, and succession plans with your broader goals, including for families whose lives and property span more than one state. 

Planning for the unexpected. 

Healthcare costs are typically among the largest and least predictable expenses in retirement. Your Jacksonville advisor team evaluates your existing coverage, identifies gaps, and considers protection for long-term care alongside your broader plan, preserving your lifestyle and your savings so that life's unexpected moments don't derail the progress you've worked hard to make. 

Helping your team build confidence for their future. 

If you own or manage a business in Jacksonville or Northeast Florida a well-designed company retirement plan can enhance your overall employee benefits program. Your Modern Wealth advisor team helps design, manage, and provide fiduciary oversight for company retirement plans, including plan design, investment menu selection, compliance support, and employee financial education, helping your people build real confidence about their own financial futures.

FAQs

What happened to Sanchez Wealth Management Group? 

Modern Wealth Management acquired Sanchez Wealth Management Group in September 2026. The firm was built in Jacksonville by Chris Sanchez around proactive wealth management and planning for the four main risks of retirement: longevity, inflation, the timing of market returns, and healthcare costs. The team continues serving clients from the same office on Belfort Road with the same personalized, fiduciary guidance their clients have trusted, now backed by the full Modern Wealth Advantage.

Will I work with the same team?

Yes. The advisors and support team you know continue serving Jacksonville clients from the same office, now with Modern Wealth specialists in tax, estate, insurance, and investments working alongside them.

Do you specialize in retirement income planning?

Yes. Retirement income planning has been central to this team's practice for years. That means going beyond a portfolio to build a plan for how your savings become dependable income: when to draw from which accounts, how to manage taxes on the way out, when to take Social Security, and how to keep a market downturn early in retirement from changing your plans. If you're wondering whether your savings are ready to become a paycheck, start a conversation with us.

Do you work with people who are new to Florida?

All the time. Northeast Florida attracts people from across the country, and a move here comes with real planning questions: establishing Florida residency, updating estate documents drafted in another state, and rethinking a tax strategy that was built around a state income tax you no longer pay. Your Jacksonville advisor team helps new Floridians put the pieces in order, identifying planning opportunities in the first year or two can potentially be missed.

What is a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA)? 

A Registered Investment Advisor is a person or firm that provides investment advice and manages portfolios on behalf of clients. RIAs are registered with the SEC or state securities regulators and are held to a fiduciary standard, which requires them to act in the client's best interest and disclose material conflicts of interest. When you work with a Modern Wealth advisor in Jacksonville, you're working with a registered investment adviser committed to providing advice designed to help you pursue your financial goals.

What does it mean that your advisors are fiduciaries? 

Fiduciary is more than a word we use in our marketing. It's a legal standard established under the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, requiring our advisors to act in your best interest, eliminate or fully disclose any conflicts of interest, and place your goals above everything else. The Modern Wealth Jacksonville team has operated under this standard throughout their careers.

How is Modern Wealth Calabasas compensated? 

Our compensation for advisory services does not include commissions, referral fees, or third-party payments. This structure is designed to align our advisor team’s interests with helping you make progress toward your goals. We do not receive compensation for promoting specific investment products. Your goals are at the center of the advice we provide.

What areas do you serve? 

Our Jacksonville office serves individuals, families, and professionals throughout Northeast Florida, including Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach, Nocatee, St. Augustine, Orange Park, Fleming Island, Amelia Island, and surrounding communities. We also work with clients across Florida and nationally on a remote basis. Get your Modern Confidence Score today to start a conversation with our Concierge team.

How do I know if Modern Wealth Jacksonville is the right fit for me? 

The best way to find out is to start with your Modern Confidence Score. Our Concierge team will assess where you stand across all areas of your financial life, including taxes, estate, insurance, investments, and overall planning. They'll answer your questions about our services and connect you with the right advisor for your needs. We work primarily with individuals and families who have $500,000 or more in investable assets, though we evaluate each situation individually. At minimum, you'll come away with useful perspective, and we think you'll get a clear sense of whether this is the right partnership.
