    Military Housing in Hawaii

    One of the many questions in your mind if you’re military relocating to Hawaii is what military housing in Hawaii is like. Military life is a challenge that not everyone can truly understand. If you’ve never lived life in a military family, it’s very difficult to understand what that entails. There are hardships such as spending months and years away from one another, holidays apart, and work that can call anytime day or night. This doesn’t even scratch the surface but it begins to paint a picture for those who don’t understand what you face on a day to day basis.

    You’ll be happy to know that military housing in Hawaii will be a positive note in your relocation to Hawaii. Every relocation comes with a sea of choices, including where to live. Should you choose on base housing? Would you be better off living off base? If living off base seems to be a better option, should you rent during your stay there or a buy a new home in the area? How much would you actually be paying out of pocket, if anything, in either case? If you decide to buy a home, how much financing can you expect to get? What breaks do you receive for serving your country? Military personnel in Hawaii are pleased to find out just how much help there is for military housing in Hawaii.

    There are many military installations in Hawaii that you could be stationed at, such as:

    • Camp H.M. Smith • Fort Shafter • Hickam AFB • Kaneohe Bay MCB • Naval Computer Telecomm Area Master Station • NS Barking Sands • Pearl Harbor Complex • Schofield Barracks • USCG Integrated Support Command Honolulu • Wheeler AFB

    Where ever you’re being stationed, there is bound to be an array of housing options. Military housing in Hawaii includes many beautiful off base homes that can be bought, and currently prices are down. Plus you get help obtaining your home in Hawaii. The Military Housing Assistance Fund helps active duty military in Hawaii and the Hawaii National Guard and Reserves pay closing cost. You never even have to repay the money they give you for it.

    If you’re moving anywhere to Honolulu County, you’re especially lucky. The BAH (Basic Allowance Housing) is higher in Honolulu County than in most other areas of the country. Also, the 100% financing cap from the VA for Honolulu County is almost $800,000. So if you want to buy a home while you’re in Hawaii, then it is very much something worth looking into.

    Monthly payments shouldn’t be difficult to cover. For instance; At the bottom, an E-1 with no dependents will receive a monthly BAH of $1,555. If an E-1 has dependents then that goes up to over $1,900. Of course, there are plenty viable on base military housing in Hawaii. There is currently an abundance of construction with private contractors going on that will further your options for military housing in Hawaii.
