Military Housing Privatization: Preliminary Observations on DoD's Oversight of the Condition of Privatized Military Housing

Abstract

Private-sector developers and property management companies build, renovate, maintain, and repair about 99 percent of family housing at military bases in the United States. However, with reports of hazards like mold, lead-based paint, and pest infestations, there are concerns about how well DOD monitors the condition of privatized military housing. We testified about our preliminary observations from ongoing work in this area. Specifically, military departments are increasingly monitoring privatized housing conditions at their respective bases, but don't have reliable or meaningful data or metrics that adequately reflect the condition of housing.
