Housing Australia Future Fund Facility and National Housing Accord Facility - Round 1

The Housing Australia Future Fund (HAFF) and the National Housing Accord are Federal Government initiatives to improve housing outcomes for Australians and will collectively support the delivery of 20,000 new social and 20,000 new affordable homes across Australia over five years. 

The following entities are eligible to apply for funding under the HAFFF and NHAF:

• Community housing providers that are registered under the National Regulatory System for Community Housing and are registered charities
• Australian States and Territories, local governing bodies, and Local, State or Territory government-owned corporations
• Charitable entities with a primary purpose of improving housing outcomes for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people, or for current or former members of the Australian Defence Force
• Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV) whose purpose is to increase social and/or affordable housing, where at least one member is an entity mentioned above.

Over the 5-year program rollout, it is anticipated that there will be multiple HAFFF and NHAF funding rounds. Applicants who are unsuccessful or do not participate in Funding Round One are encouraged to participate in future potential funding rounds.
