Housing Australia releases 2024–25 Social Bond Report
Housing Australia has released its 2024–25 Social Bond Report, highlighting significant progress in financing social and affordable housing and the measurable impact of the organisation’s investments on housing outcomes.
This year's report confirms the full allocation of proceeds from Housing Australia’s social and sustainability bond issuances to eligible social and affordable housing projects, delivering tangible outcomes for Australians in need of secure housing. The report also highlights the scale and impact of Housing Australia’s financing efforts, underpinned by strong investor partnerships that are helping deliver more homes and build a robust pipeline for future investment.
2024-25 highlights include:
- $14 billion committed in 279 contracts through the Housing Australia Future Fund Facility (HAFFF) and National Housing Accord Facility (NHAF) for 18,650 new homes
- $902.6 million in Affordable Housing Bond Aggregator loans supporting 2,088 dwellings
- $160 million bond tap funding housing for priority cohorts
- $100+ million in estimated interest savings for community housing providers.
Since 2019, Housing Australia has issued over $2.8 billion in social and sustainability bonds. In November 2024, a $160 million bond tap supported housing for women and children leaving family violence and vulnerable cohorts in regional NSW and WA.
Housing Australia acknowledges the ongoing support of our investors and partners as we continue to support long-term sustainable housing outcomes for Australians in need.
