Mascoutah / O'Fallon / Belleville, IL (Metro East St. Louis) — Everything you need to plan your PCS move, estimate your BAH vs. VA mortgage, or calculate your estimated walk-away net proceeds before selling your home on orders.
Off-base housing centers around O'Fallon (62269), Mascoutah (62258), Shiloh, Swansea, and Belleville. Illinois property taxes are paid one year in arrears, so PCS sellers must factor prorated tax credits into their seller net sheet before listing.
When you have a hard Report No Later Than Date (RNLTD), the single biggest threat to your equity is hiring an agent who quotes an inflated listing price so your home sits unsold for 6 to 12 months while you pay two housing payments after PCSing.
