Tasmania’s housing crisis demands urgent action. Tasmania’s home builders are ready to build the homes Tasmanians desperately need, but delays and inefficiencies within Homes Tasmania have held back delivery.
HIA has long maintained that increasing supply is the key to solving the housing crisis. Unlocking that supply requires genuine collaboration with the residential construction industry.
HIA looks forward to continuing to work constructively with the Tasmanian Government to ensure urgently needed reforms to Homes Tasmania improve transparency, reduce bureaucratic red tape and enable the residential construction industry to get on with the job of building homes for Tasmanians.
Workplace laws are set for more changes in 2026.
Australia’s residential building industry has entered the new year with confidence still on shaky ground for small businesses as rising costs and policy uncertainty continue to cloud the outlook.
Tasmania’s housing market slowed in November, with building approvals falling sharply compared to October. Approvals for new homes dropped almost 20 per cent, and even after seasonal adjustment, the decline was 5.8 per cent.
Australia’s home building industry is expected to strengthen through 2026, supported by gradually improving building approvals and a recovery in demand, but the pace of growth will ultimately depend on how quickly interest rates can fall further, according to the Housing Industry Association.
