With 90 per cent of all property investors in Australia being small-scale ‘Mum and Dad’ investors, governments are keen for them to participate in providing affordable housing. New AHURI research has found that landlords who are participating in schemes that provide affordable housing are positive about their experiences.

Three in five Australian renters say they expect they will never own their own home — a significant shift that requires rethinking of tax and housing systems highlights new AHURI research.

New AHURI research has found that current approaches to engaging First Nations peoples in urban policy and planning are placing an unreasonable and unsustainable burden, especially on Traditional Custodians. The report found that a change of relationship with Traditional Custodians, and a rethinking of current engagement approaches could create a more responsible process. It also found that Traditional Custodians need access to appropriate resources to fulfil their urban policy development obligations.
