DEADLINE: Housing Innovation Fund (HIF)

The Housing Innovation Fund will support the local construction industry through a combination of grants and loans.

The HIF forms part of the broader WA Housing Plan, through which the Government is delivering long-term solutions to increase housing supply, reduce red tape, unlock land, and build workforce capability. Since 2021, more than $4.5 billion has been committed to initiatives aimed at boosting housing availability across the State.

The Housing Innovation Fund will back local businesses seeking to:

• scale up manufacturing and prefabrication capabilities;
• automate key elements of the construction process;
• improve environmental sustainability;
• reduce build times and reliance on traditional labour; and
• strengthen WA’s construction and manufacturing resilience.
