Baptcare Affordable Housing

Social housing for our community

Providing the basic human right of secure, appropriate and affordable housing

Baptcare Affordable Housing provides affordable, well-located, and well-built housing for people on lower incomes. This, in turn, provides respect and dignity for people in need of safe and secure housing.

We believe that secure, appropriate, and affordable housing is a basic human right. It provides the foundational stability for individuals and families to enhance wellbeing and create a full, independent life for themselves. Social housing plays a critical role in supporting people impacted by the housing affordability crisis.

We are proud that for over ten years, Baptcare Affordable Housing (BAH) has played a role in providing housing for people in need.

Baptcare Affordable Housing currently:

  • provides homes to over 700 residents
  • manages over 300 apartments, villas, townhouses and houses
  • provides social housing in communities across Metropolitan Melbourne, Greater Geelong, Wangaratta, and Devonport.

There are many reasons why affordable housing is critical to our collective future.
These include:

  • 80% of low-income earners paying more rent than they can afford
  • an ageing population
  • a general decline in home ownership.

In response to the growing need for affordable housing, Baptcare Affordable Housing was created in 2013 as a subsidiary of Baptcare Ltd.
