Just wondering what makes you think people will want to move? Most people refuse to sell because there is nothing to buy.

People die. Jobs change. People get sick of the climate or move closer to help out family. Life happens

And also because many people have sub-3% interest rates. Nobody is going to sell until rates come down, because it makes zero sense to lose a cheap loan just to trade spaces (and there are very few homes to even choose from). The only people who will be selling are those who have to.

There are lots of reasons people end up HAVING to move- I specifically stated it’s a big military area and unfortunately when you get a new station, you can’t say no “due to lack of housing.”
