I am looking at purchasing a unit in a retirement village in Queensland and part of the rent is based on a % of government assistance. Besides the pension what are the other forms of rental assistance would the tennants have access to? and are some of these being phased out? if so are they being replaced with something else? Would appreciate any information on this subject.
Hi,
The only type of rent assistance I know is paid through Centerlink. Click here to go to the Centrelink page to find out more.
Having said that, a call to Centrelink to confirm the available entitlement beyond rent assistance would be wise.

Thanks very much for the centrelink info. After more searching I have come across the Commonwealth Sate Housing Agreement (CSHA) which appears to also help with payments towards rent. This appears to be being phased out(not from official information), in Queensland anyway. I have been unable to find details about how or when this will occur, or how payments work at present. Can anyone shed more light about CSHA?
Regards,
Andrew
