What is meant by 'real property accountability' and who typically manages it?

Real property accountability is the stewardship of government-owned land, buildings, and improvements—tracking who owns the asset, its ongoing maintenance, and how it is disposed of when no longer needed. This ensures accurate records, proper upkeep, and compliant disposal to support readiness and audits. It is typically handled at the installation level by the property accountability office or facilities management within the installation. This differs from tracking unit personnel schedules, managing personal property inventories, or handling only financial real property taxes, which fall into other areas.
