(Archived) Sydney Housing Supply Forecast 2017
The Sydney housing supply forecast provides an estimate of future housing supply that will be built over the next five years. It is prepared by the department to inform infrastructure planning and service delivery, as well as to inform decisions on future land use zoning.
The forecast takes into account current residential developments that are being assessed as a DA, under construction or approved, as well as future likely development under current zoning and planning controls.
The forecast is an estimate of the number of new dwellings that could be built under current zoning and planning controls, as well as current programs and initiatives and various market conditions and demand factors.
The forecast reflects current trends in residential construction and approval activity. These trends could potentially change in the future as housing development is influenced by a wide variety of economic, social and other factors, many of which can't be foreseen.
