House-Hunting Leave Hacks π

House-hunting leave can be one of your most valuable PCS tools—but only if you know how to use it wisely. Here are some key tips:
π Line up your team early. Work with a military-savvy agent who understands your timeline and can have listings ready to go.
π Get pre-approved before wheels up. Don’t waste a single day waiting on paperwork—come ready to make an offer.
π Ask about virtual options. Tour additional homes virtually to expand your search beyond your travel window.
π Know your base access process. Your agent should already understand the gate protocols and ID checks to get you where you need to be fast.
You’ve got limited time—make every day count by planning like a pro.
