Funds are allocated for the purchase or construction of rental housing for people on low to moderate incomes.
Funds can also be used for extensions, conversions or upgrades. Capital contributions from groups are encouraged.
Key features of the CHP include:
- Opportunities for tenant involvement in the development of housing and the ongoing management of the housing stock
- Organisation retains all rental revenues and takes full responsibility for tenancy and property management
- Encouragement of innovation in design, funding and financing arrangements.
A proportion of CHP funds are also set aside to fund community sector infrastructure such as the development and delivery of training and information resources, and regional community housing development strategies.
