It will also explore housing, wealth and retirement system implications for people who may never own their own home.

This webinar will explore new AHURI research findings on factors that should be included when considering what makes a home genuinely affordable. Discussion will look at how contemporary housing affordability measures could be extended to consider energy efficiency (heating and cooling costs), location (transport costs and location disadvantage), and building quality (health and maintenance costs).
