AHRN.com Announces 2016 PCS Toolkit With New Home Buying Resources

WATERFORD, Wis. - Feb. 24, 2016 - PRLog -- For the third consecutive year, the Automated Housing Referral Network (AHRN.com) offers their free, comprehensive PCS Toolkit to service members and their families to help them get organized, on track and on budget for an easier 2016 military moving season.

Although military members move, on average, every two-three years, the relocation process can still be overwhelming. Each year, the Department of Defense changes their relocation budget allocations and processes. Practices that were acceptable in a prior PCS can easily turn into a costly mistake without up-to-date information. AHRN.com’s goal is to reduce stress for the military member by providing step-by-step guides and simplifying the latest rules and regulations.

AHRN.com utilizes twelve years of service to the military community, expertise on military housing and relocation, and military spouses' personal PCS experiences to drive the development of the Toolkit. Now each service member doesn’t have to re-invent the wheel to plan an efficient and budget-friendly move.

The 2016 edition provides worksheets for weighing the pros and cons of various housing situations, moving with pets, preparation timelines, and little-known tips from experiences gained through numerous PCSs. Brand new to this year’s version is guidance for pursuing the goal of military home ownership.

The 2016 PCS Toolkit also includes updates based on feedback from prior Toolkit editions, including: the most recent updates to 2016 entitlements, timelines, a PCS Checklist, Budget, Important Contact tracking and Home Inventory worksheets.

“Our PCS Guide continues to expand each year as we increase our support for their entire move process. Last year’s guide was so well-received and widely-used that we wanted to help even more servicemembers and military families this year. We are excited to incorporate years of collective expertise and personal experience with the military PCS process all in one resource,” said Paul Giese, AHRN.com Product Manager.
