The Landings at Nellis

NAFBP is currently working with residents to create new amenities to include a community pool; community center; business center; tot lots; soccer fields; basketball, volleyball, and tennis courts; and picnic shelters.

Yes, military members still have the option use their BAH to rent a house or apartment outside the installation. They should make plans to move off the installation before January 15, 2006 when Hunt assumes ownership of the homes.

Civilians are at the bottom of a long list (no. 7) of those who may live in housing on base if it is not occupied by service men and women. Civilians who reside in housing will first have to go through a security check. Any guests must be escorted from the gate.

Satellites on existing homes, erected prior to January 15, 2006, will be grandfathered. Satellites on other existing homes and new homes are not allowed without prior written approval from management.

Yes, existing sheds are grandfathered. Sheds for new homes are not allowed without prior written approval from the management office.

The developer will pay for the move if the resident’s relocation is due to the scheduled demolition of the resident's existing home.

The government determines the service member’s BAH based on the cost of similar dual occupied rental property, typical utilities, and his/her rank. An allotment from the service member’s account is set up to pay rent to Nellis Air Force Base Properties, LLC. The rent allotment for each service member is usually equal to his/her rent.

Military Assistance Company, LLC (MAC), the world's largest processor of automatic payroll deductions for military, will be processing military personnel allotments. This company is currently processing rent allotments for 40 DoD installations. MAC systems assure payment directly from the service member's account. When the BAH rates are adjusted annually, MAC will automatically update the allotment amounts; it will be seamless to service members. In addition, MAC's error reports, run at each processing date, will help fix any problems quickly.

BAH is an entitlement and should not be counted as taxable income. However, it will be included in gross income. Programs based on an individual’s gross income may be affected.

No. At the end of each month, the service member’s LES will show that BAH has gone into his/her account and an allotment, equal to the monthly rent, has been deducted. There should be no changes to the service member’s net pay.

The BAH at the “with dependent” rate is paid as rent. Service members can choose to pay their BAH in the form of an allotment (an electronic funds transfer) or in person at the housing office.
BAH includes an allowance for rent, utilities and renter’s insurance.

Yes. Families will be placed in homes based on their rank and availability of homes. Their rent will be determined by their rank.

Rent is based on BAH. BAH is based on rank, not on the size of the home.

Both members will receive BAH. The senior member will receive it at the with-dependent rate, while the junior member will receive it at the without-dependent rate. Under current Department of Defense rules, only the senior member’s BAH at the with-dependent rate will be used to calculate the rent amount, so the family can keep the BAH of the junior member.

The lease, sometimes referred to as a resident occupancy agreement, is a standard resident agreement used by all privatized military housing and civilian rental properties. Residents are required to sign a lease in order to reside in privatized military housing. The lease specifies the rights and responsibilities of resident and landlord. The lease also sets the service member’s BAH as the rent payment to Nellis Air Force Base Properties, LLC.

The lease will include a standard military clause addendum. If a service member receives orders, retires, or leaves the military, he/she will be released from any lease obligations.

The service member’s signature is required on the lease. Please contact Legal Assistance as soon as possible about getting a special power of attorney to sign the lease in his/her name.

In the event of a promotion, the member may request a move to the category housing which is appropriate for his or her rank; the move would be voluntary and at the member’s expense. The move is subject to housing availability.

In the event of a demotion, resident can pay the decreased rent, but must notify the management office in writing.

As long as the resident can provide a copy of military orders with a specified report date on it, he/she can choose to vacate the home at any time during the lease with 30 days written notice.

If moving to a new home, resident must first receive approval from the management office before moving the satellite dish or fence. The developer will pay the lease breaking fee if the resident’s relocation is due to the scheduled demolition of the resident's existing home.

Hunt’s maintenance staff will be handling all service requests for the residents. Residents will not be charged for the services.

The Management Offices will be open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The perimeter of Nellis AFB will remain under military control, including all gate access points. The security procedures in place today will remain in effect.

Hunt Building Company is currently negotiating with Cox Cable. The 350 homes in New Nellis Terrace, 13 SOQs in Manch Manor and all new homes will receive upgraded cable services. All existing homes scheduled for demolition will not receive upgraded cable services.

Yes. Hunt will be responsible for trash pickup and recycling at no additional cost to the resident.

Yes. The property manager will continue to respond to maintenance requests. The homes will remain habitable until the families can be moved into new homes.

On January 15, 2006, Pinnacle began mowing all lawns not behind fences on a regular schedule. Hunt will mow lawns for all existing homes beginning August 1, 2009.

If any property is damaged or destroyed, call Hunt immediately to report the damage. Hunt will work to resolve the problem. The lawns will be cut on a regular schedule, and care should be taken to remove items that may be run over.

The Resident Guidelines are still being negotiated between the government and the Air Force. The Resident Guidelines will be posted on this website as soon as possible. Please review the guidelines, and contact us with any questions about the policies.

No. Those residents who currently have three pets will be allowed to keep all three. New residents will be limited to two pets. Those owners who have three pets should inform the leasing agent when they sign their leases; an addendum about pets must be included with the lease.

New residents (moving to Nellis after January 15, 2006) will be limited to two pets (dog, cat, bird, or fish aquarium). For new residents, pets that weigh more than 100 pounds will not be accepted and certain breeds of dogs are not allowed, including Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and Doberman Pinschers.

A 30-day written notice is required before vacating quarters and should be given at your management office as soon as you are aware of your moving arrangements.

Nellis Air Force Base Properties, LLC is the company that will own and operate the family housing at Nellis Air Force Base. The Air Force Privatization Program is a government initiative which allows the services to leverage appropriated construction funds and government-owned property to attract private capital to improve military housing. The Air Force Privatization Program offices have planned and implemented the program, policies and procedures for the transition to the private-sector developer, Hunt Building Corporation. Hunt Building of El Paso, Texas will be providing development, construction, and property management services for the housing at Nellis Air Force Base.

Hunt draws upon their private sector experience to provide first-rate services and amenities to our military families. We pride ourselves in our commitment to customer services and The Nellis Air Force Base Properties, LLC promises to deliver a product that meets or exceeds the standards in the surrounding community. The Nellis Air Force Base Properties, LLC (NAFBP) will have extended housing office hours (Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. - 6 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.), provide a 24-hour a day call center, mow front yards and common areas in all the housing communities, and provide high-speed Internet access to all the homes.

Privatization does not affect the amount of BAH that is paid to the service member. Prior to privatization, service members did not receive BAH if they lived in military housing. Under the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, all service members choosing to live in privatized military housing receive their BAH and use the BAH to pay the privatized housing provider. The rent payment (usually equal to BAH) will be automatically transferred to Nellis Air Force Base Properties, LLC at the end of each month; this process will be performed and monitored by Military Assistance Company, LLC (MAC), the world's largest processor of automatic payroll deductions for military and civil service employees. The BAH is used by the company to maintain and operate the existing housing, as well as to fund the construction of the new houses and amenities.
