You've Got Orders: The No-Fluff Guide to PCSing San Diego

You got orders to San Diego. Now what? Every year, thousands of military families PCS to San Diego and start googling - and find beach listicles, loan ads, and nothing that answers the real questions. What does BAH actually cover here? Which neighborhoods work for which base? Rent first or buy? What do you do first, and what can wait? This book is the map. Written by a San Diego real estate agent who works with PCSing families every week - and whose own Navy family made this exact move - it runs in the order your move runs: BEFORE YOU LEAVE - your first 30 days with orders, the rent-or-buy decision, and the honest BAH math WHERE TO LIVE - the six bases, the real commutes, and the neighborhoods military families actually choose THE MOVE - house hunting from 2,000 miles away, the VA loan in ten minutes, and the PCS money nobody explains (DLA, TLE, and the rest) AFTER YOU LAND - your first 90 days, and what to do with the house when you PCS out: sell it, rent it, or let it fund the next duty station No fluff. No filler. Just what you need to land well - from someone whose whole business is serving those who serve.
