Everyone deserves a safe and affordable place to live, yet too many people in Chisholm are struggling with rising housing costs. Whether renting or trying to buy a home, people are being priced out of the suburbs they love. I am committed to real action that makes housing more accessible and ensures long-term stability for families, young people, and essential workers.

Housing Affordability

Helping First-Home Buyers

• Support policies that make it easier for first-home buyers to enter the market, including stamp duty reform and shared equity schemes.

• Push for more transparency in property pricing to prevent underquoting and price manipulation.

• Encourage sustainable housing developments that provide affordable and well-located homes for buyers.

Tackling Housing Stress

• Work towards fairer tax policies that prioritise homeownership over speculative investment.

• Push for better access to emergency housing support for those at risk of homelessness.

• Advocate for stronger protections against housing discrimination to ensure everyone has access to a home.

No one should be forced to choose between paying rent, buying food, or covering essential bills. By addressing the housing crisis head-on, we can build a future where everyone in Chisholm has a secure place to call home.
