About Military PCS HQ

Military PCS HQ is written and maintained by an active-duty U.S. service member with multiple PCS moves behind him. The goal is simple: put the housing numbers you actually need — BAH rates, buy-vs-rent reality, VA loan basics — in one place, before you sign anything.

Where the data comes from

All BAH figures are taken directly from the official 2026 Basic Allowance for Housing dataset published by the Defense Travel Management Office (DTMO), effective January 1, 2026. BAH rates change annually and individual circumstances vary — always confirm your exact entitlement with your finance office.

This site is independent. It is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, the Department of Defense or any U.S. government agency.

How agent matching works

If you ask to be connected with a real estate agent, we match you with a local agent experienced with military relocations and VA loans. The service is free to you: receiving agents pay a standard broker-to-broker referral fee on closed transactions, which never changes your price or terms.

Real estate referral services are provided through License Park Realty, LLC dba RealtyConnect.com, a licensed Florida real estate brokerage. The site operator is a Florida-licensed real estate sales associate with that brokerage and does not represent buyers or sellers in transactions.
