To rent one of these homes, you'll need to meet the following criteria: • Income – Your household's gross annual income must be below the limit for your household type.

We'll review your recent income to confirm this. If there are other factors that support affordability, let us know – these can be considered too. • Citizenship or residency – You'll need to be an Australian citizen or permanent resident. Acceptable evidence includes a birth certificate, citizenship certificate, passport or eligible visa (the visa must show permanent resident status). • Property ownership – You can't own (or have an entitlement to own) a residential property suitable to live in. You'll confirm this by signing a declaration as part of the lease. • Household size – Your household should suit the size of the home, so it isn't under- or over-occupied.

If you're unsure whether you qualify, just reach out – we're happy to help you work it out. 🔹Rent Rent for these homes is set at the lower of two amounts: a percentage of market rent, or an amount based on median household income. (The median household income figure is set by the Specification of Income Ranges in the Order in Council under Section 3AB of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 (Vic) – it's a benchmark figure, not based on your personal income.) Rent is worked out for each household type and each home, so you'll always be quoted the applicable (lesser) amount of the two. 🔹Car parking Car spaces are available while spaces last, for an extra $37 per week on top of your rent. Spaces are secure, off-street and private. 🔹Lease terms • Leases are offered as a 3-year fixed term, giving you long-term housing security. Different terms may be available on written request. • For multi-year leases, we'll explain how your annual rent increases are calculated. • Your eligibility is reviewed at each lease renewal to confirm you still meet the criteria for affordable housing under this program. 🔹Interested?
