Builders and Developers

The delivery of affordable home ownership supports key economic and social infrastructure for the state, including stimulating the housing construction sector.
Stable housing is recognised as a key pillar to help South Australians succeed in life. It provides stability in people’s lives, which underpins employment, health and education.
The housing market currently supplies only 3.7% of new build homes that are affordable to households on a low- or very low-income (can afford up to $250,000), and 20.2% of housing affordable to households on a moderate-income (can afford up to $367,000).
HomeSeeker SA provides people with a broad range of housing opportunities, information and tools to help them decide what housing choice is right for them, and how best they can access it.
