HIA has been advocating strongly for this program as a much-needed boost to stimulate the home building industry, increase supply of housing, and provide new incentive for home ownership.
HIA welcomes the CLP Government’s prompt action in announcing this program as the first order of business, and the opening of applications starting on Tuesday 1 October.
The HomeGrown Territory program also includes a FreshStart New Home Grant of $30,000 for non-first home buyers who may have already owned a property before, to purchase or build a new home.
The scheme is the first of its kind and will help stimulate new home construction, encourage people to move to the Territory, and increase critically low supply of housing across the Northern Territory.
Importantly for long term growth of the industry, the program will help retain the residential building workforce and encourage growth through new apprenticeship and training opportunities in an invigorated housing market.
“The number of loans issued for the construction or purchase of new housing increased in the June quarter 2026, for both owner occupiers and investors,” stated HIA Senior Economist, Tom Devitt.
“HIA welcomes the finalisation of the new Sydney Plan which provides a 20-year framework for the future development of Sydney,” said Brad Armitage HIA NSW Executive Director.
The housing industry is calling on the Australian Government to allow self-managed super funds (SMSFs) to continue borrowing to build new homes, at least until the impact of its new borrowing restrictions on housing supply is independently assessed and made public.
“HIA welcomes Senator Andrew Bragg putting National Construction Code reform squarely at the centre of the housing affordability and productivity debate,” said HIA Chief Executive – Industry & Policy, Simon Croft.
