FAMILY HOUSING OPTIONS
Portsmouth-Norfolk-Virginia Beach-Chesapeake-Yorktown
There is no Coast Guard Owned housing in the area, so most CG personnel stationed in Hampton Roads draw BAH and live on the economy.
There is no mandatory assignment to government housing in the Hampton Roads area for members accompanied by their dependents, but some Servicing Personnel Offices will require a written release from housing. If you need a release call Yolande Branch or Chris Evans.
Coast Guard Leased Housing
Coast Guard Leased Housing is available for eligible personnel E-6 and below. Call Yolande Branch to determine eligibility. If eligible you will need to submit a Housing Application CG5267 with your PCS Orders and a copy of your BAH/Dependency/Emergency Data sheet (CG-4170).
Privatized Housing
DOD Privatized Housing is military housing that is owned/managed by private contractors. If you choose these quarters, you will continue to receive BAH in your paycheck, sign a lease and pay the contractor by allotment. The contractor will charge each member the exact amount of their BAH entitlement for monthly rent and utilities. There may be other factors, restrictions and waiting lists independent to each contractor, so you must contact them directly for all information and applications, NOTE: Privatized military housing is considered "living on the economy" and therefore not a mandatory assignment to quarters.
Privatized housing is available at the following bases: Naval Station Norfolk, Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek, Naval Air Station Oceana/Damneck Annex, Northwest Support Activities (CAMSLANT), Naval Weapons Station Yorktown, Norfolk Naval Shipyard (Portsmouth) and Joint Base Langley/Eustis.
Coast Guard personnel are authorized to apply for Navy Privatized Housing (PPV) through Lincoln Military Housing, (757) 961-3783. http://www.lincolnmilitary.com/hamptonroads

Housing Early Application Tool "HEAT"
Navy Housing has developed HEAT to assist service members and their families in applying for housing Navy-wide. HEAT allows service members and their families to get the housing application process started at one or more Navy installations online before or after they receive their Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders. HEAT is available to any service members at all Navy installations. HEAT creates an easy user experience to connect with your destination. Spouses can use the application as well, needing only minimal information about their service members. http://www.cnic.navy.mil/HEAT
Rental Partnership Program (RPP)
RPP is a program designed to provide Military Personnel with off-base affordable Housing. All military personnel with at least one year remaining on active duty in the Hampton Roads area are eligible to apply. This program enables our members to rent on the economy at a reduced rental rate -5% below the current market rent. Members may or may not have to pay a security deposit and the member must pay the monthly rent by allotment. To apply for RPP you will need a copy of your current PCS Orders, Leave and Earnings Statement and Military ID Card.
Members wanting to set up RPP prior to reporting can do so by completing the following forms:
RPP Application and Statement of Understanding
List of CG RPP units:
Complete the RPP application and read and initial each paragraph of the RPP Statement of Understanding Check List. Sign, date and fax along with a copy of your current PCS Orders, Leave and Earnings Statement and Military ID Card to (757) 686-4052. Call Yolande Branch with any questions.
Single Personnel Housing Options
There are Unaccompanied Personnel Housing barracks at Base Portsmouth, (757) 483-8538, CG Station Little Creek (757) 464-9372 and CAMSLANT (757) 421-6289 for single personnel at co-located units. These barracks must maintain a 95% occupancy rate, so all single personnel E-4 and below reporting to duty stations in these geographic areas must be released by the barracks MAA prior to procuring housing on the economy.
Voluntary Geographic Bachelors
Members transferring in who do not bring their legal dependents with them are not eligible for any type of government quarters. There is no UPH space available for voluntary geographic bachelors and you will be expected to procure your own residence on the economy. The Housing Office may be able to assist you with referrals and possible roommates, but cannot arrange any accommodations in CG or DoD owned quarters.
Referral Websites
The websites below can be very helpful in looking for your future residence. We know that the internet leaves out a lot of information, especially if you are unfamiliar with the area. If you see something you are interested in please feel free to call the Housing Office to make sure the property is in a safe area and that no complaints have been received about the complex, landlord or location. The Automated Housing Referral Network (AHRN) is a DoD and CG sponsored website designed to assist military members and their families with finding housing in their assignment location.
