Canberrans want more homes to build, buy and rent.
And that’s why the Barr Labor Government will deliver 30,000 more homes by 2030.
From new suburban housing to well-designed townhouses and duplexes in existing suburbs, Labor is delivering more housing choice right across Canberra.
And we know saving up to buy a home is a big challenge.
That’s why we made housing more affordable by removing stamp duty for first home buyers, pensioners and off the plan purchases.
We’ve cut stamp duty every year since 2012, and now we’ve removed it entirely for first home buyers, pensioners, eligible NDIS participants, turn-key missing middle houses, and off the plan purchases.
It’ll mean no matter your income or the value of the property, in Canberra you won’t pay a cent in stamp duty for your first home.
And when it comes to public, community and affordable homes – Labor is delivering 5,000 additional dwellings by the end of 2030.
It'll mean public and community housing increases every year so that more Canberrans have a place to call home when they need it most.
And we'll do it all while keeping the green spaces Canberrans know and love.
It’s all part of Labor’s plan for every Canberran
Because every Canberran deserves a place to call home.
