In addition to delivering Homes Victoria affordable through the Affordable Housing Rental Scheme, we are supporting the growth of affordable housing in Victoria through:
The Housing Australia Future Fund Facility (HAFFF)
The Housing Australia Future Fund Facility (HAFFF) and the National Housing Accord Facility (NHAF) are initiatives administered by Housing Australia and led by the Federal Government to improve housing outcomes for Australians.
Collectively, they will support the delivery of 20,000 new social and 20,000 new affordable homes across Australia over five years.
Over the five-year program rollout, it is anticipated that there will be multiple HAFF 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.

Affordable Housing Partnership Program
The Affordable Housing Partnership Program forms part of the Social Housing Growth Fund grants program, comprising part of the Government’s $5.3 billion Big Housing Build and the $1 billion Regional Housing Fund, and aims to deliver up to 1,300 new Affordable Housing homes across Victoria.
The program seeks to deliver a long-term, sustainable and diverse affordable housing sector in partnership with Homes Victoria and not-for-profit organisations, Community Housing Organisations, Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, institutional investors, other investors, and Consortia.
The closing date for expressions of interest and request for proposal for the Affordable Housing Partnerships Program from Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, Traditional Owners and partners has been extended.
Following the Affordable Housing Partnership Program expression of interest, selected respondents will be invited to a subsequent request for proposal process.

Affordable Housing Investment Partnerships
Affordable Housing Investment Partnerships (AHIP) makes low interest loans and government guarantees available to finance social and affordable housing for Victorians who need it most.
AHIP expands on the existing Building Financial Capacity of Housing Agencies (BFCHA) initiative, bringing the total finance available to $2.1 billion.
Low interest loans and government guarantees are open to community housing agencies, not-for profit organisations and local councils.
