HomeGround Real Estate Sydney
Congratulations to Shelter NSW on the launch of the Ethically Conscious Housing Initiatives Report.
Authors Sarah Oberklaid and Dr Tom Alves of AHURI Limited explore the role ethically conscious housing can play in addressing housing security in this country.
The report includes case studies from HomeGround Real Estate Sydney, Nightingale Housing, Head Start Homes and the Older Women’s Housing Project.
“I’ve had years of experience and various interaction types with multiple personnel across different departments at HomeGround, and every time the service level was professional, kind, courteous and attentive. Their passion and genuine interest to help low to middle income earners find affordable housing to call home shines through every phone call, open house, paperwork processing and ongoing property management.

A husband and wife used their property to help someone in need. HGRE Sydney matched them to a tenant through the Women’s Community Shelter. The mother and son have a safe home after 7 mths in a shelter and the landlords have a $15,000 tax benefit through HGRE’s tax ruling from the ATO.

Meet Kim Thompson, founder of Annandale Interiors, who moved her business into 163 – 185 Parramatta Road, Camperdown in April last year.
Since moving into the building, Kim has actively engaged with our residents and even extended a helping hand to some by offering part-time employment. John, one of our ex-tenants, is now part of Kim’s team!
On December 14, 2023, the NSW Government introduced in-fill affordable housing reforms, creating compelling incentives for private developers to enhance the supply of affordable housing.
Key Highlights
Bonus Incentives:
Projects incorporating 10-15% of gross floor area (GFA) as affordable housing qualify for a floor space ratio (FSR) bonus of 20-30% and a height bonus of 20-30%. These bonuses are proportional to the affordable housing component, benefiting developers with increased flexibility. (more…)
