The CEO of the Community Housing Industry Association (CHIA), Mark Degotardi, appeared on ABC Radio National to discuss the implications of the HAFF Round 3 announcement for community housing providers and households across Australia.

During the interview, Mark underscored the importance of a sustainable, long-term housing pipeline, which has been bolstered by the following milestones:

  • Nearly 900 homes completed
  • 9,500 homes are currently under construction
  • 9,000 homes in the planning stages
  • An additional 21,000 homes are supported through the latest announcement

Mark highlighted that this program is not just about constructing buildings but creating homes that have the power to transform lives.

He also emphasised the growing and robust partnership between community housing providers and Housing Australia, a collaboration that will be critical in delivering the homes announced as the next funding round opens in 2025.
