NSW Department of Communities and Justice / RFP Parramatta Project - LAHC 2023/125

The NSW Land and Housing Corporation (‘LAHC’) is excited to offer a unique opportunity for a Community Housing Provider (‘CHP’) or CHP led Consortium to deliver diverse social, affordable and other rental housing outcomes in the Parramatta LGA.

The RFP Parramatta Project (the ‘Project’) bundles three closely located Sites into a single transaction made possible through land and capital contributions from NSW Government to maximise housing outcomes.

The Project also makes available, at the Proponent’s discretion, an innovative and highly concessional funding package through the National Housing Infrastructure Fund - Social and Affordable Housing.

Through successful delivery of this Project, LAHC and NHFIC hope to learn lessons and set new benchmarks in State and Commonwealth partnerships with the CHP sector to address the housing and homelessness crisis in NSW.

How to lodge an RFP response: Click LODGE A RESPONSE at the bottom of the page and follow the instructions to attach your files for lodgement.

You can attach up to 5 individual files on each lodgement. There is no restriction on the number of times you lodge a response in order to submit all of your files but you should identify each file (e.g. file_1_of 6, file_2_of 6 etc).
