Welcome home to Navy Great Lakes and NSWC Crane professionally managed by Forest City Residential Management (FCRM) where Exceptional Service is our standard. It is our honor to service you and have you as neighbors in our communities! It is our goal to ensure a smooth transition into your FCRM home; we look forward to assisting you in your relocation.

For Naval Station Great Lakes, your first point of contact for housing qualifying eligibility will be with our housing partners at the Navy Family Housing Office, located at the Welcome Center, Bldg 8100. NWSC Crane Family Housing Office is located at Bldg. 1. Your Navy Housing representative will review your application with respect to your pay grade and familiy size to determine eligibility. You will then be referred to our Forest City Residential Management Relocation Office, conveniently located within the Welcome Center. Once your families housing needs are assessed, we will tour the neighborhoods in a courtesy van to find your preferred home. Upon acceptance of the home, you will complete two forms for the resident file as well as a one-year rental agreement. The rent and utilites for your home are equal to the BAH for your pay grade. Payment by allotment is initiated by our account specialists - making payments easy! 

To assist in your transition, we provide relocation information packets including change of address kits, a convenient listing of telephone numbers and other information that you may find helpful in your move to Navy Region Midwest. For us, it's not just about renting you a house, its making you feel at home in your new community. 

We are here to answer any questions you may have, so please feel free to contact our Relocation Office at (847) 689-4312 or email our Relocation and Resident Services Manager, Terina Nelson, at terinanelson@forestcity.net for further information.
