The Greatest gift to military families is BAH Basic Allowance from Housing!
Use this money to buy a home and reward your self with added benefits such as tax deductions, interest write offs, and ownership. Stop wasting your money by renting or using base housing.

$1100-$1200 BAH would be the equivalent of a payment for a home priced between $155,000-$175,000 depending on an interest rate an area taxes.
$1200-$1400 BAH would buy you a home priced between $170,000 - $200,000. depending on an interest rate and property taxes.

Consult with a lender to see if you can qualify for a VA loan. Get the best of both worlds and with the assistance of a great agent like myself- negotiate for the seller to cover your closing cost. Now you have a VA NO NO- No down payment and no closing cost.
When relocating this usually can make buying a home cheaper then renting. When renting in Hampton Roads our area a property managers usually want 1st months rent, a security deposit (the same as 1 month rent) and application and pet fees. If you have poor to fair credit they may also require last months rent up front. That can be pretty expensive.
