Working Future. A Territory Government Initiative
The Territory Government has established an affordable housing rental company, Venture Housing, that will provide Territorians with properties to rent at below market rates.
There will be a strong emphasis on targeting key workers vital to the Territory economy, such as workers in retail, trades and hospitality. They will also be working with people with disabilities who require supported housing arrangements.
These are 35 new units currently under construction in Parap that will be transferred to the ownership of Venture Housing on completion. They will be availble for rent in mid 2012 for eligible applicants. To find out how to apply or get more information, register your interest with Venture Housing.
The Territory Government is seeking proposals from suitably qualified entities interested in developing Section 4445 Hundred of Bagot, Batten Road site under a Crown lease term, for a short stay workers accommodation village to provide housing options for key service workers and people on short term postings to Darwin.
The request for proposal process closes 2.00 pm Friday 9 March 2012.
Proponents intending to submit must register their interest by
