Thanks, but the Department of Housing will not provide any information concerning the property 

Well thats what I want to know, how can I find out the status of the property (i.e. will it be given to new tenants or sold)?

Hi there, 

I myself am new to the forum, I have a specific question I would like to ask.

I live in greater western Sydney, where there is a diversity of private and public housing. I have noticed recently, many housing commission properties renovated and sold to the general public. I currently live next door to a housing commission home, which is currently vacant (previous tenants have left). My family owns the property we live and I am interested in purchasing this housing property next door. I would like to know of any one who has purchased a public housing property and can provide me with the relevant information and ways to go about.

Kind regards,
