San Diego Military Relocation

If you’re in the Military and just received orders to San Diego, then you’ve come to the right place. We have helped many active duty military relocate to San Diego. In fact it’s our specialty. We have worked with hundreds of military personnel, mostly Sailors and Marines and their families, to find their new home in San Diego. There are quite a few Navy and Marine Corps bases in San Diego County and we have worked with all of them to get you placed into a new home or condo in a neighborhood that fits your requirements.

If you’re in the Navy and relocating to San Diego then you are probably going to be stationed at one of the following bases:

• Naval Base San Diego aka 32nd Street Naval Station
• Naval Amphibious Base Coronado
• Naval Base Point Loma
• Naval Air Station North Island
• Navy Broadway Complex

If you’re in the Marines and relocating to San Diego then you are probably going to be stationed at one of the following bases:

• Marine Corps Air Station Miramar
• Marine Corps Air Station Camp Pendleton
• Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton
• Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego

Regardless of the branch of military service you are in we are here to help and the process is the same. Most of the time military homebuyers use their VA Loan to buy a home or condo. This is an awesome loan because you can purchase real estate with no money down and have the seller pay for some or all of your closing costs. There is also no “PMI” Private Mortgage Insurance on VA Loans which can save you hundreds of dollars a month. That’s more purchasing power for active duty military and veterans alike. 

The Lewis Team has countless 5 Star Reviews on Zillow and Yelp and many of them are from the military families that we helped either buy or sell real estate in San Diego County. We would love to show you our 5 Star Service and why we get so many high ratings on review sites. We have well over 28 years combined experience on the team with the most senior member, Dawn Lewis, being a licensed real estate agent in San Diego since 1989. 

Because we work with so many sailors and marines when buying homes in San Diego County we know that the most important thing considered is commute time to and from the base. So depending on where your stationed you will probably want to purchase within a reasonable drive to the base that you’re going to be stationed at. The List below will have the base with communities within a reasonable driving distance. If the commute time is not important than anywhere in San Diego will work within your price range.
