Soldiers can only be housed in privates residence in a time of war, because the Constitution says that you cant quarter troops in a time of peace. Im not positive, but that is my answer.
Yes, the concept of quartering America's troops in private homes is outdated today. Until the Civil War, most troops were volunteer militia who responded to the call to arms. while there were forts, there were no military bases that had permanent quarters for troops. Today however, America's volunteer military is provided with living quarters on such bases as Camp Lejeune, NC (USMC) or Fort Hood, Tx (Army).
It demanded an end to 1) taxing without Parliament's consent, 2) imprisoning citizens illegally, 3) housing troops in citizens' homes, 4) maintaining military government in peacetime.
It required colonists to house British Troops in private homes.
Not without the consent of the person living in the home full-time. The 3rd Amendment of the US Constitution prevents the military from seizing/forcing themselves on private homes. This was a product of the British forcing themselves into Boston homes in the 1770s.
The British sent troops to enforce rule in Boston because of many problems in Boston like the revolutionists. Sending the soldiers made many civilians in Boston angry. The troops were allowed to stay at peoples homes. So sending troops in to Boston made people more angry.

The 3rd amendment is a part of the Bill of Rights. It prohibits the Quartering of troops in civilian homes. The Quartering Act imposed by the British was not well received. It required people to take British soldiers into their homes and house and feed them.
