HOPE Housing is an investment that not only offers financial returns but also has altruistic elements. HOPE appealed to me becauseit helps people achieve something that might otherwise be out of their reach.
Tim Norton
Entrepreneur and Property Investor
HOPE has a good, solid return over a ten-year period, and I think the whole thesis around providing housing for essential workers and front-line workers is really important – they give a lot to our community, and to be able to provide a solution to their housing needs is pretty special.

The return profile in Australian residential property is characterised by low yields and high capital growth. HOPE provides exposure to the capital growth of a portfolio of vetted residential property assets, owned and occupied by essential workers. By removing the typical costs associated with investing in residential property, and by selecting quality assets, HOPE aims to maximise an investors exposure to this capital growth, enhancing returns.
No – the Fund pays none of these typical fees, as the homeowner is responsible for all costs related to the property. The homeowner is also on title and no land tax is payable by investors in the HOPE Fund.
Unit holders may be able to transfer their units to third parties, subject to terms outlined in the PPM.
HOPE may provide capital for all types of housing except for off the plan developments. All approvals are subject to HOPE’s full pre-purchase due diligence conducted on every asset, this includes an onsite valuation, which sets the purchase price limit for our co-investment.
HOPE has developed a social return methodology in partnership with industry experts, including The Centre for Social Impact and Think Impact. In the 12 months to December 2023 the Fund delivered a social return of 13.5% p.a.
