Home owner assistance

The Office of Housing provides assistance to home owners through the following programs:

Mortage Relief

Eligible Victorian home owners can apply for short term interest-free loans to help overcome difficulties with home loan repayments resulting from an unavoidable change in circumstances. Find out more about our Mortagage Relief Scheme.

Home modification service

The Home modification service was established to help people to remain living independently in their own home environment with support from family and community networks.

Moveable units

Movable units offer eligible people a chance to live independently while remaining in close contact with family or friends.

Group Self Build

Group Self Build is an owner builder program that provides home ownership opportunities to people who are willing to commit their time and energy to building their homes and the homes of others in groups of 10 to 12 families.
