This guide offers practical advice to homeowners, builders and designers embarking on a retrofit of an existing home. It focuses on relatively simple adaptations to improve a home’s comfort, while reducing energy bills and carbon emissions.

This interim report provides an overview of the system in which Social Housing Providers currently operate in NSW plus the processes and practices employed to meet maintenance requirements.

The social housing sector, including public, community and Aboriginal housing, own or manage a significant proportion of residential property in Australia; the management is relatively centralised as compared with owner-occupiers and is governed by design and performance standards.
