With over 21,000 jobs scheduled for a move to Fort Belvoir and another 2600 scheduled for Quantico all of the counties and areas close to the bases are preparing for change.  Even though the influx of personnel won't be complete until Fall 2011 signs of the influx are popping up.

You can already see some of the changes underway both inside and outside of Fort Belvoir and Quantico.  Road improvements in Fairfax County, the new Dewitt Hospital at Fort Belvoir and building renovations at both locations are just the tip of the iceberg.

For families moving to the area as part of BRAC getting to know the area and making decisions about where to live are going to be a #1 priority.  With so many choices putting together a solid wish list of neighborhoods, type and style of housing, school options and commuting are going to be top considerations.

If you are one of the personnel headed to either Fort Belvoir or Quantico and considering buying a home, then finding out about the available financing options will be the first order of business for you.  If you are eligible for the VA home loan program then you will be happy to know that with the lower prices in Northern Virginia in 2008 you will be able to find a good selection of homes that qualify for the regular VA loan limit of $417,000.  You can even use a VA loan to buy a foreclosure property!

The internet is a great place to start your search about the area but once you are ready to move to the next step give a native of the area a call.  I've moved around the globe myself and know what it is like to have to try and find the right place to call home.  Put my experience with relocation to work for you.
