We are excited to announce the official launch of the UDIA National Housing Pipeline (NHP) survey proudly supported by our UDIA National NHP Presenting Partner NBN and our NHP State Co-Sponsor – Victoria, Intrapac.

The key purpose of the NHP is to fill a crucial national data gap and provide an objective and robust supply pipeline measure that can be used by various stakeholders across the industry that identifies how much development-ready land is available for residential development across the capital cities along with expected year-on-year residential development yields.

The project aims to produce a curated assessment of the short and medium-term pipeline of actual/realisable land supply for forward residential development across each of Australia’s capital cities.

NHP research project that has been successfully piloted by UDIA Western Australia and now being rolled out Australia-wide with the project well underway in VIC, NSW, QLD & SA.

Drawing from exclusive developer intelligence (working with UDIA members across each state), the platform will present the real extent of land availability and land readiness for residential development across Australia’s major housing markets, where and when dwellings are expected to be commenced, overlayed with outstanding infrastructure requirements and the planning system approvals required to unlock the housing needed to support our future cities.

The NHP will reframe the land supply narrative in Australia, providing deeper and more timely data on planning for a healthy development pipeline, in a geospatial platform that will allow reporting and ongoing analysis, including:

• • A comprehensive assessment of the short-, medium-, and long-term pipeline of actual land supply available for forward development by identifying undeveloped land holdings and the fundamental development constraints that halt its future progression.
• • An advocacy tool for each state to their respective policymakers on the necessity of future land supply.
• • The ability to inform Government decision-making and infrastructure investment decisions, using the NHP platform as a sandbox to test policies and improve coordination between approval and service agencies and industry.

The NHP is aiming to become the ‘one-source-of truth’ of the development-ready land pipeline to help inform appropriate Government intervention to help boost housing supply across the spectrum and combat accelerating affordability challenges.
