I'm Looking for a Home


We provide three main types of housing:

  • Social rentals
  • Affordable rentals
  • Transitional rentals

 

Social rentals are a secure and affordable housing option for people on low incomes. To get a social rental property, you must apply through the Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) and be added to the waitlist.  You can look at the waitlist's expected waiting times at the DCJ website here. 

Some social rentals are managed by DCJ, while others are managed by Community Housing Providers (CHPs) such as Hume. 

Am I eligible for social rentals? 

  • I am an Australian citizen or a permanent resident 
  • I live in New South Wales 
  • I am able to provide ID (i.e. a driver’s license or passport) 
  • I have a household income within set limits 
  • I do not own property  
  • I am able to pay rent and look after my home 
  • I am 18 years or over 

To apply for social rentals, register on the DCJ website. 

Contact us on 1800 004 300 and select ‘Option 1’ If you would like help to apply. 

 

You may be eligible for an affordable rental if you are earning a low to moderate income and are finding it difficult to pay private market rent. Affordable rentals usually charge 20% less than market rent.

Transitional rentals

Our transitional rentals are suitable if you need somewhere to live short-term, while you find more stable accommodation. 

Our programs provide you with stable, short-term housing and skills for finding and keeping a long-term home.
