Army Quality of Life

Housing

Quality housing for Soldiers and their Families contributes to Army readiness. Army leaders are committed to improving housing conditions.

Overview

  • The army has approximately 100,000 houses in our inventory. These are on installations around the United States and the world.
  • 90% of our houses are managed through one of these privatized housing partners:
    • Corvalis
    • Balfour Beatty
    • Lend-Lease
  • Approximately 65% of Army families live off the installation in civilian communities.

Empower Yourself

  • Before you sign a lease, visit or contact the Housing Service Office at your Gaining Installation.
  • Visit YOUR INSTALLATION webpages (or the one closest to you) for important NEWCOMER information.
  • Download the MY ARMY POST APP and find your installation.
  • Contact Relocation Readiness at your outgoing installation or the gaining installation. Either end can connect you to important resources as you figure out where to live.
