Military Relocations Made Simple with Team Ballas

Relocating is never easy. Packing up your life, selling your home (or breaking your lease), finding a new place to live, and somehow keeping your sanity intact. Now add a tight deadline, limited housing inventory, and the unpredictability of military postings to the mix, and you’ve got a whole new level of challenge.

At Team Ballas, we get it. As certified Military Relocation Specialists registered with Brookfield Global Relocation Services (BGRS), we’ve spent years helping Canadian Forces members and government employees navigate the complexities of relocation. And with Jason, a retired military member, on our team, we don’t just understand the process—we’ve lived it.

Whether you’re arriving at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Trenton or preparing for your next posting, we’re here to make your move as smooth and stress-free as possible.

The Realities of Military Relocation

Each year, approximately 9,400 Canadian Armed Forces members and their families receive their marching orders to a new province, territory, or city. While relocation comes with the job, that doesn’t make it any less overwhelming.

Tight Timelines & High Stakes

In many cases, military families only have a few weeks to sell their homes, secure new housing, and organize their move. In a competitive market, this can mean making compromises on location, size, or features as well as dealing with the financial strain of double mortgage payments if your home doesn’t sell in time.

Emotional & Financial Challenges

Beyond the logistics, there’s also the emotional toll. Kids have to adjust to new schools, spouses often have to leave jobs behind, and the entire family has to rebuild their sense of home in a brand-new community.

Luckily, military relocation benefits can help ease the burden if you know how to navigate the process efficiently. That’s where we come in.
