Abstract

[This research recommends that housing assistance be provided under a tenure-neutral model. Currently, households with similar needs receive fundamentally different levels and types of housing assistance depending on their housing tenure (i.e. owner, private renter, social housing) rather than needs]

Keywords: [Housing policy; housing assistance; housing needs; low-income]
