On 1 August 2005, the Navy entered into a partnership with Lincoln Military Housing for the management of government owned housing in the Hampton Roads area. Hampton Roads military families, eligible single service members (with dependents) and single pregnant service members may live in Private – Public Venture (PPV) privatized housing. Service members seeking PPV housing must have:
There may be a waiting list for some of the PPV homes in the Hampton Roads area. To receive your detachment date from your last permanent duty station as your control date, you must contact the Navy Housing office within 30 days of your report date to your new command. You can also submit an advance application via our housing website. A service member may also appoint a representative with a specific POA to apply for housing.
The Hampton Roads region has several housing areas. There are 22 enlisted housing areas with approximately over 4000 units and 11 officer housing areas with a total of 202 units. The housing assignment is predicated upon your needs and availability.
There are 200 new and 50 renovated housing units on Fort Story. Housing is privatized and managed by Balfour Beatty Communities. The waiting list during peak summer season is 3-4 months. Phone: 757-962-3511.
The waiting list for PPV housing varies depending on geographical area, number vacant homes and number of bedrooms. For a current list of wait times go to the Relocation website. In most cases, you may need to live in civilian housing before being referred to PPV homes. Because the waiting list can fluctuate, it is recommended that you check with the housing office for housing availability prior to entering into a lease agreement for community housing.
Application
You should apply for PPV housing upon arrival, or in advance, you can exercise your option to accept or decline at the time you are notified that PPV housing becomes available.
