Book Synopsis An Analysis of the Effects of Military Housing Allowances and Other Military Related Factors on Private Sector Rental Housing Prices by : Gary L. Wick
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 2002 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renovating or replacing 168,000 inadequate military family housing units using traditional military construction methods would take over 20 years and cost about $16 billion. In 1996, to improve housing faster and more economically, Congress authorized the Military Housing Privatization Initiative to allow private-sector financing, ownership, operation, and maintenance of military housing. At the request of the Subcommittee on Military Construction, House Committee on Appropriations, GAO examined the reliability of military housing needs assessments, as well as achievement of privatization financial goals and government protections in contract provisions.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the Department of Defense (DOD) pays active-duty servicemembers who do not live in military housing a Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) to help them afford private market residences, expected growth at some military installations has raised concerns about whether nearby communities will have enough affordable rental housing for incoming personnel. In response to a congressional mandate, GAO assessed (1) how excluding BAH would affect servicemembers' eligibility to apply for federal rental housing programs and (2) factors that could affect their use of the programs in selected communities gaining military personnel. GAO compared servicemembers' eligibility for the programs as of December 2005 by including and excluding BAH from income determinations and examined factors affecting potential program use near four growing military installations.

Book Synopsis An Evaluation of Housing Options for Military Families by :
Download or read book An Evaluation of Housing Options for Military Families written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, the Deputy Secretary of Defense directed the Under Secretary of Defense (Personnel and Readiness) to conduct a new study of military family housing. Previous studies concentrated on comparing the costs of military owned housing with housing allowances that are provided to personnel who rent or purchase civilian housing. This study complements previous efforts by investigating the preferences of military families for different kinds of housing, the methods they use to find housing at new locations, and the factors that are important in their choice of housing. The data for these investigations were collected through a survey of families assigned to 12 bases with varying housing situations. The analyses and the survey data should be of interest to policy makers and analysts concerned with military housing programs, the support of active duty families, and the role of housing benefits in the compensation package. Readers interested only in the findings of the study should focus on the first two chapters. The other chapters will be of interest to readers interested in the analytic methods and detailed results.

Download or read book Military Housing written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the Department of Defense's (DOD) family housing program. GAO discusses (1) whether DOD has implemented a standard process for determining the required military housing based on housing available in the private sector and (2) how an increase in the housing allowance is likely to affect the need for housing on military installations over the long term. Despite calls from Congress, GAO, and DOD's Inspector General, DOD has not introduced a standard process for determining military housing requirements. DOD and the services have worked to develop the framework for the process, but technical concerns, such as standards for affordable housing and commuting distance, have stalled its adoption. Increasing the housing allowance underscores the urgent need for a consistent process to determine military housing requirements because it is expected to increase demand for civilian housing and lessen the demand for military housing. From a policy standpoint, increasing the allowance better positions DOD to rely on the private sector first for housing because it removes the financial disincentive to living in civilian housing. From a management standpoint, considerable evidence suggests that it is less expensive to provide allowances for military personnel to live on the civilian market than to provide military housing. Although overall program costs are increasing significantly in the short term to cover increased allowances, DOD could save money in the longer term by encouraging more personnel to move into civilian housing.

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.
