... Center City Annapolis, 4 miles from gate 8... next to nice cafes and shopping.
... so if you want to save $22,000.00 hard cash in 6 months and have advanced "training" in survival, you can pitch a tent for free in my backyard... 10 minutes from Gate 8. Shower and personal hygiene in the yard though. Halsey Field House is always open. After several rounds in Iraq and Afghan, I can live a tent year round, but I don't... because DW will scream and DS will give the Mid "stare" if I do.
Always make sure your lease has a military release clause... Landlord/Tenant law varies state by state, and I am not aware of any nation wide statute giving military members the right to break a lease. ( There wasn't in my day) . Landlords in most military towns know the drill, and include a provision allowing you to terminate if you get orders more than xxx miles away. ( Gouge for SNA with orders to Pcola; find housing on the Whiting Field side of town as the military clause didnt cover move from Pcola to Whiting)
I googled this - interesting read.

I guess that’s not the case. Listen to the lawyers here! And good luck!SCRA was passed after my time....I was aware of the Act as it also prevents or stays legal action against Service Members while deployed, but it does appear to have the same effect as the old Military Clause on leases. Back in the day, the base housing office was pretty good about warning young servicemembers about the military clause in leases , and I believe they actually blacklisted landlords that didn't allow such a clause.
This actually sounds like an incredible deal. I would take it
SCRA is what I understood protected them, and released them from leases. In fact, my ensign had to sign quickly before his PCS orders arrived, in order to have such protection. If it was signed after orders received, he wouldn’t have protection under the act. Thats how it was explained to me.Of course. Good remind. It was my understanding that this was the case for military on orders, from reading here on the forums.
No way could I read the fine print and understand the legal ease. Probably intentional
It seems to be a general understanding? that military orders require a landlord to release. All I’ve ever been exposed to. My Ensign and buddies have gotten released from 2. It must be somewhat common. Idk. I was certain that was the case from military people, here. Appreciate the correction. I must have not understood correctly.
So, good luck everyone
Can confirm the Pcola/Whiting gouge. It's not a PCS to go to Whiting.
THAT SOUNDS SO FUNNNNN!!!!
(But you might have to babysit little dude)I guess it depends where you will be "stationed" in the intermediate time. Do you have to report somewhere to "work?" If Annapolis, then somewhere in AA County makes sense. If it is DC, or something around the beltway, going out more toward Howard or PG County makes more sense.
We have an empty guest room and bathroom in the basement ....... extra income chance ......
that’s not a house that’s a zooI'm not sure most young officers would be able to handle him. It's a two-parent job already!
And I also doubt they'd want to stay in a home with 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 bunnies, a hamster, a snake, and fish tanks.
