Download or read book Military housing privatization off to a slow start and continued management attention needed : report to the Secretary of Defense written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1998 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DOD) spends about $8 billion annually to provide housing for military members and their families either by paying cash allowances for members to live in private sector housing or by assigning members to military-owned or -leased quarters. Over the past several years, DOD has expressed concern over the poor quality of the military housing inventory and the need for renovations and improvements to bring the housing up to contemporary standards. To improve housing faster and more economically than could be achieved if only traditional military construction appropriations were used, the Congress approved DOD's request for a new initiative, known as the Military Housing Privatization initiative, that allows and encourages private sector financing, ownership, operation, and maintenance of military housing. Under the initiative, DOD can provide direct loans, loan guarantees, and other incentives to encourage private developers to construct and operate housing either on or off military installations. Because it represents a new approach to improving military housing, GAO reviewed the implementation of the new initiative to (1) measure progress to date, (2) assess issues associated with privatizing military housing, and (3) determine whether the new initiative is being integrated with other elements of DOD's housing program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the costs and the benefits of alternative approaches to managing DOD family housing assets. The two approaches examined are Variable Housing Allowance and Fair Market Rental. These two alternatives seek to alleviate the inequities of the present housing system in dramatically different ways. While a Variable Housing Allowance would be more advantageous to the service member, a Fair Market Rental system is being promoted within Congress and the Executive Branch. An approach which combines elements of both the Variable Housing Allowance and Fair Market Rental is recommended as the most viable and equitable alternative to the present family housing system.

Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) paid active duty military personnel over $18 billion in housing allowances in FY 2010. DoD sets housing allowance rates annually based on market costs of rent, utilities, and renter¿s insurance. Also, DoD has identified 26 installations significantly impacted by expected growth in personnel due to various rebasing actions. This report reviewed DoD¿s rate-setting process, among other issues. The report determined: (1) whether there are enhancements to strengthen DoD¿s rate-setting process; and (2) whether service members have encountered challenges in obtaining off-base housing. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed: (1) the fairness of the Department of Defense's (DOD) military housing system as it pertained to dual-service couples and divorced members; and (2) previous DOD studies on housing and existing laws on basic allowances for quarters (BAQ) and the variable housing allowance (VHA). GAO found that: (1) the housing allowance system was designed when the military was small and composed mostly of single males, and those members that were married had nonemployed civilian spouses; (2) the problem has been compounded by the growth in the number of female service members, which has led to an increasing number of dual-service couples, and growth in the number of divorced service members; (3) service members in those categories believe they are unfairly treated; (4) current legislation restricts a dual-service couple from receiving BAQ when both are assigned to sea duty, even though they may live in nongovernment housing for lengthy periods when the ship is in port, or maintain that housing during short deployments; (5) other legislation prevents members who reside in government quarters and receive a housing allowance only because they pay child support from receiving a variable housing allowance and denies variable housing allowances to certain members who elect to not occupy quarters when assigned to sea duty; and (6) DOD proposals to eliminate perceived inequities for dual-service couples and divorced service members may serve to magnify perceived inequities for other groups that do not have the option to elect to not occupy government quarters.

Download or read book Military Housing written by Carol R. Schuster and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2003-06 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renovating or replacing 168,000 inadequate mil. housing (MH) units using traditional mil. construction methods would take over 20 years and cost about $16 billion. In 1996, to improve housing faster and more economically, Congress authorized the MH Privatization Initiative to allow private-sector financing, ownership, operation, and maint. of MH. This report examines the reliability of MH needs assessments, as well as achievement of privatization financial goals and gov't. protections in contract provis's. Recommends that DoD use a broader range of factors in defining its MH requirements, modify its guidance for performing life-cycle cost analyses, and implement several changes to enhance gov't. protections in the privatization program.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides a method for determining whether the current Department of Defense (DOD) military family housing program is economic according to the criterion that social benefits exceed social costs. A benefit-cost model is presented which extends the models developed by previous researchers in the field of public housing. This model tests the hypothesis that indeed the DOD does have an economic justification for providing military rental housing according to the criterion stated above. The test was based on data obtained for Travis, Ellsworth, MacDill, and Tinker Air Force bases. The paper concludes with a presentation of empirical results and a brief discussion of the possibilities for further research. (Author).

Download or read book An Analysis of the Effects of Military Housing Allowances and Other Military Related Factors on Private Sector Rental Housing Prices written by Gary L. Wick and published by . This book was released on 1996-12-01 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privatization of Military Family Housing will place a greater reliance on private sector rental housing. Before the DoD embarks on any policy changes that place a greater emphasis on private sector housing, the DoD must be certain that rental property landlords do not raise rental prices based on changes in a service member's housing allowances. This thesis explores the relationship between changes in military housing allowances and changes in private sector rental prices. A multiple regression model was used to determine this correlation. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Fair Market Rent data was used to measure the changes in private sector rent prices in 25 cities. Basic Allowance for Quarters (BAQ), Variable Housing Allowance (VHA) rates, and a ratio that measured the presence of military members in a given area were used as the independent variables. Using the three independent variables described above, the result did confirm the popular impression that rent prices do rise with increases in housing allowances. However, the correlation was not as significant as anticipated. In an effort to make the model more useful as a policy tool, recommendations are provided for an expanded dependent variable data source and additional independent variables.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the compensation package that it offers members of the armed forces, the Department of Defense (DOD) provides several housing allowances designed to help members pay certain costs of housing services. This report examines recent trends in the U.S. housing market and relates them to DOD policy. It then reviews the recent professional economics literature on housing demand, particularly the empirical literature, and relates findings from this literature to DOD policy. Finally, the report offers concrete proposals on how to simplify current DOD policy and make it more efficient without compromising any of its basic goals.
