Believe Housing Mansfield Park

Housing shortages, stubbornly high interest rates and increasing cost-of-living pressures are pricing many Australians out of the property market. This is being particularly felt by low-income earners, with escalating costs putting them under pressure to afford rent alongside necessities like food, heating and clothing.

The $14 million Mansfield Park housing development, managed by Believe Housing Australia (a subsidiary of AnglicareSA), will allow more than 100 South Australians to have access to safe and affordable housing.

Building on a strong working relationship with AnglicareSA from previous residential projects, WT provided cost management, procurement and superintendent role services for the Mansfield Park development. We were involved throughout the project lifecycle, from concept and planning, design development, tender, and in a superintendent role managing the successful project delivery over 14 months of construction.

37 two- and three-bedroom homes, including six specialist disability accommodation units, have been allocated tenants who are young people and working families on low to moderate income, older South Australians and those living with disabilities.

The development is part of the South Australian Government’s Renewing Our Streets and Suburbs (ROSAS) project to address the current housing crisis, providing affordable housing as part of the National Rental Affordability Scheme.

Together with our clients we’re working to improve the sustainability of Australia’s social housing now and into the future, ensuring everyone has access to a safe place to call home.
