Tenants move into 434 newly built homes delivered by a partnership between Housing Australia, the Victorian Government and industry 

Tenants have started moving into 130 new affordable apartments in Sydney's Macquarie Park, thanks to funding from Housing Australia and the NSW Land and Housing Corporation (LAHC). The tenants include key workers employed at the nearby Macquarie University precinct.

Jayden and Lynnsey, a young couple from the Illawarra, met while working in their first job at McDonalds. Jayden (25 years old) now works as an Asphalter Machine Operator, and Lynnsey (23 years old) is a Workforce Development and Reporting Officer at a large construction firm.

More than 150,000 Australians have bought or built their own home over the past four years, with support from the Home Guarantee Scheme (HGS or Scheme) that is administered by Housing Australia.
