Example: A member has rented out their home for a fixed term of 12 months. A release clause is included in the lease. It provides that the lease can be ended with two months' notice. They are posted back to the home's location seven months into the lease. They must wait two months before they can live in the home. They are eligible for housing assistance for the period that their home is unsuitable.

Example: A member leases their home to the Defence Housing Australia for it to use as a Service residence for five years.
