Family Housing and
Local Information About
NAS Lemoore
The Housing Service Center (HSC) is available to assist you with all of your housing needs. Enclosed is some housing and local information with helpful web links that may interest you. Please contact us for more information.
Common Navy Housing Terms
Housing Service Center (HSC) is the Service member’s government advocate for providing assistance for any type of housing: rental or purchase, on-base or off-base, community, government and Public/Private Venture (PPV) at any installation worldwide.
Fleet and Family Support Center (FFSC) supports individual and family readiness through a full array of services and resources which help Navy families to be resilient, well-informed and adaptable to the Navy environment. The Naval Air Station Lemoore FFSC serves active duty members, retired personnel and family members with programs and services to enhance their quality of life.
Public/Private Venture (PPV) housing is also referred to as privatized housing in the Navy. We have partnered with Lincoln Military Housing to offer you and your family outstanding on-base housing choices. PPV housing at Naval Air Station Lemoore is owned by Lincoln Military Housing and governed by a business agreement in which the Navy has limited rights and responsibilities. Lincoln Military Housing is entirely responsible for the construction, renovation, maintenance and day-to-day management of the housing. PPV housing may be located on or off government property and in most cases will be former military housing.
Community Housing is any housing that a Sailor may choose that is not PPV or government operated. This is housing outside of the base that is privately owned and operated.This can include apartment complexes and single family homes for rent.
Housing Early Application Tool (HEAT) allows Service members and their spouses to apply for housing at one or more locations before or after they receive their PCS orders. The launch of HEAT allows the Service member to tap into their DEERS record, creating an easy user experience. Spouses can use the application as well, needing only minimal information about their Service member.
Rental Partnership Program (RPP): The Rental Partnership Program (RPP) is designed to provide active duty military personnel, enlisted and officer, single or married, with affordable off-base housing. This program is governed by a memorandum of understanding between the Landlord and the Navy region enabling military personnel to rent off-base housing at a reduced rate.
