The SA Housing Trust has reached  a significant milestone in our commitment to delivering more public housing for South Australians. We have begun construction on the final suburban PHIP homes in Seaton, where we are building three, two-bedroom, single story homes.

Across the state, 282 homes are under construction as part of the PHIP, including fifty apartments on Tucker St, in Adelaide’s CBD. We have already completed 158 homes, with new tenants on the Housing Register, or current tenants who relocated from other Trust homes, moved in.

Across the program, a mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes across dozens of metropolitan suburbs and in seven regional locations under the $232.7 million housing commitment, through the PHIP and other SA Housing Trust building programs.

In addition to 437 new homes, the Public Housing Improvement Program also includes major works on 350 vacant homes and improvements to 3000 tenanted homes. PHIP is just one of the several programs and initiatives to deliver more housing for South Australians.
