Naval Bases

Living in Hampton Roads: Naval Base Relocation

A military move to Hampton Roads starts with your specific installation and reporting location. Naval Station Norfolk and NAS Oceana serve different parts of the region, and a home convenient to one may involve a very different drive to the other. Confirm where you will report before choosing the communities to include in a search.

Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake and other Hampton Roads cities offer a range of property types and daily routines. Compare the route from each prospective address to your duty location, including gates, bridge or tunnel crossings and typical reporting times. Local visitor guides and official installation resources can help you explore the area before arrival.

Build your housing plan around your orders, budget and the time available for a purchase or sale. Compare total ownership costs and review condition, insurance and association responsibilities for each property. Use the official base guides linked here for current arrival and installation information, and coordinate transaction-specific financing questions with your lender.
