Finding the right home is a big part of life and an important decision for anyone.
We understand that many Tasmanians can’t afford to buy a house. There is also a big shortage of rental properties.
When searching for an affordable home, many people will live in a series of short-term, problematic housing situations, often relying on the help of family or friends to put them up temporarily.
This instability can affect health and wellbeing, make it difficult to keep children in school, and can make employment or looking for work very difficult.
So we work with people to help obtain and maintain tenancies.
