DISA to Move to Ft. Meade as Part of BRAC
What is DISA? - Defense Information Systems Agency
The Defense Information Systems Agency is a combat support agency responsible for planning, engineering, acquiring, fielding, and supporting global net-centric solutions to serve the needs of the President, Vice President, the Secretary of Defense, and other DoD Components, under all conditions of peace and war.
DISA headquarters will be moving to Fort Meade by September, 2011. This means nearly 4,300 DISA, Joint Task Force-Global Network Operations, and tenant positions will transfer to Ft. Meade from Virginia as well according to disa.mil. Ground breaking for construction took place in April 2008.

DISA is only a small part of the BRAC relocation. However it is obvious that many of the people transferred will look for homes which will help raise housing values in the Fort Meade region. BRAC will truly create a need for housing in the immediate area as it begins to take place. As the demand increases and supplies begin to decrease, it is very likely there will be significant appreciation in home values in this part of the country regardless to what other areas real estate values do.
