36. Hurry and wait.. for a house - Military Housing decoded

Our most requested topic is finally here — military housing!

In this episode, we break down everything you’ve been asking about: the new housing standards, what they actually look like in real life, and how they’re being implemented across branches. We talk about what service members and partners can realistically expect when it comes to on-base living, timelines, inspections, and the ever-confusing waitlist process.

And yes — we get into the big one: Can you get military housing before you’re married?

We explain the rules, the exceptions, the frustrations, and the loopholes people think exist (but don’t). Whether you’re engaged, planning a future together, or just trying to figure out your next move, we’ve got you covered with the honest details.

From privatized housing companies to mold horror stories to the new standards, this episode is the guide we wish we had when we started military life.

If you’re trying to understand how housing works — or why it feels like it doesn’t — this is the episode for you.
