More homes mean more opportunity
Find out more about our plans to build more homes and create more opportunity for families and young people.
Victoria is number one in Australia for approving and building homes.
52,854 homes have been approved in Victoria over the last year – almost 10,000 more than in New South Wales – despite challenging economic conditions across the country.
That’s 145 new homes ready to start construction, every day.
Almost 10,000 social and affordable homes are under construction or completed through the Big Housing Build, with more to come.
Additionally, almost 10,000 homes have been fast-tracked for development in the last 12 months, and we’re targeting more development in 10 built-up areas to support 60,000 more homes.
We have delivered more than 130 reforms to strengthen renters’ rights - and as we speak, our Rental Taskforce is cracking down on dodgy rental providers.
Communities and stakeholders have had their say on our $1 billion investment to build 1,300 new homes in regional Victoria, including a mix of social and affordable housing.
This matters. We’re supporting families looking for a home to buy, young people looking for a home to rent, and vulnerable people looking for the home that can change their life.

Good decisions, made faster
We’re reforming Victoria’s planning system to boost housing supply across the state – clearing the backlog and giving builders, buyers and renovators certainty about how long approvals will take.
Cheaper housing, closer to where you work
We’re making it easier to build more homes, with the best design standards, where Victorians want to live – that means going up and out, not just out.
Protecting renters' rights
We’re closing loopholes that drive up the cost of living for renters, giving renters more certainty over their leases, living standards and finances and resolving tenancy disputes faster.
More social housing
We’re building more social and affordable homes across Victoria – launching Australia’s biggest urban renewal project on top of our Big Housing Build.
A long-term housing plan
We know our state will keep growing – and we know we’ll need a plan to manage that growth in the decades ahead.
425,600 new homes for regional Victoria
As part of our work to build the 2.24 million homes Victoria will need by 2051, we're setting a regional target to build 425,600 of those homes across our regions.
