Today, along with the state and territory government leaders, we announced the most significant reform to housing policy in a generation:

 

🏗️ A commitment to build 1.2 million homes over 5 years, and more incentives for states to build. We already have a national agreement with states and territories to build more homes - the National Housing Accord. Today we made that commitment even stronger, with states and territories agreeing to build 1.2 million homes by the end of the decade. And the federal government will kick in incentives to help states get there. 

 

🏠 A better deal for renters. States and territories are working to better protect renters against evictions, limit rent increases to once a year, limit break lease fees and more. Where you rent is your home, and it should feel like it. We’re delivering stronger rights for tenants and greater security in your lease.


👷 Planning reforms so we can build more quality homes, more quickly. States and territories will change planning laws to build more homes closer to where people want to live and work. It’ll mean people can be closer to public transport and reliable services, and connected to their friends and family.

 

It builds on the work we've already done:

  • Delivering $2 billion to states and territories to deliver more social housing.
  • Funding 10,000 affordable rentals as part of our National Housing Accord.
  • Helping community housing providers deliver more homes.
  • Helping more Australians buy their own home sooner with a smaller deposit.

We know there's more to do, and that's why we're working hard to get our Housing Australia Future Fund through the Senate. Because we know a secure home is the foundation for a better future.
