The Property Council of Australia welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission to the Legislative Assembly Select Committee Inquiry on Essential Worker Housing.
Our members are the nation’s major investors, owners, managers and developers of properties of all asset classes. As one of the principal advocates for creating a strong and stable pipeline of new housing supply, the Property Council is passionate about ensuring that we are creating more well located homes close to transport, jobs and services.
We recognise the important role essential workers play in our communities, and ensuring they have access to affordable and suitable housing is vital for the wellbeing of our state. For many essential workers, the dream of owning a home – or in some cases even renting – is not just beyond reach, but beyond hope.
