Victoria is growing, and so is the need for affordable housing.

Opening doors to get you in a new home sooner

The Victorian Government is opening doors, so more Victorians can open the door to their own home. That means planning more homes in the communities you want to live, close to trams, trains ands services. Slashing stamp duty on off-the-plan apartments and townhouses and for first home buyers, $10,000 if you’re buying or building a new home.

Victoria’s Housing Statement, The Decade Ahead 2024-2034, focuses on five key areas to tackle housing supply and affordability in Victoria. We’re setting a bold target to build 800,000 homes in Victoria over the next decade.

We will be helping to deliver housing and planning reforms to benefit Victorians for years to come.

We will also make it easier for builders, buyers and renovators to get permits. We will guide the sector to create cheaper housing closer to community infrastructure like transport, roads, hospitals and schools.
