This report, which involves research and analysis by Deloitte Access Economics, is a foundational document that identifies current benchmarks in regards to the progress of our sector in the last four years. It takes into account the current funding, policy, and regulatory arrangements and identifies areas that must be addressed in order to sustain the growth of community housing in Victoria.
The report identifies three key areas that need to be addressed to achieve this growth outcome; Government funding to support private investment; long-term policies for land release, regional development, and supporting infrastructure development; and the implementation of a national regulatory framework to reduce cross-jurisdictional barriers for growth.
This report marks an important step in the work of CHFV and its members to expand and develop affordable housing for low income and vulnerable Victorians, and supports our call for a whole-of-government approach to be taken to addressing the State’s housing affordability crisis.
