Priced Out: An Index of Affordable Rentals for Australia’s Essential Workers

11/04/2023

Priced Out offers proposals to make renting more secure and more affordable. We call for major reform of our tax and policy settings. And most importantly, we outline strategies to end the undersupply of social and affordable housing. If we don’t end this shortfall, we don’t stand a chance of protecting the workers we all rely on from rental stress and homelessness.

With homes on the line, the stakes for our housing system couldn’t be higher. Australia cannot afford more lost opportunities to tackle this crisis. 

Our hope is that finally, Australia will reach a tipping point that spurs real change.
