NEW GROWTH IN DEVELOPMENTS AND THE TEAM AROUND THE COUNTRY TASMANIA
It has been another busy year for the Housing Choices Tasmania Team (HCT) — from the new Residential Management Agreement (RMA), to sustained community engagement activities and an array of new developments built across the state. The new Residential Management Agreement (RMA) with the State Government commenced on 8 November 2021, and importantly for HCT and residents it secured operations in Tasmania until at least 2040. As a part of the RMA a further 475+ tenancies were transferred from Housing Tasmania across to Housing Choices Tasmania. This saw our team work tirelessly to prepare to welcome all new residents to HCT and included data capture assembling sign-up packs, arranging the seamless transition of rent payments, holding information sessions for incoming residents, signing leases and associated documentation for all incoming residents, and ensuring our website was updated with relevant information.
Many new residents came from a range of new areas, and so much of our post transfer work involved engagement with new residents, while working to establish relationships with important stakeholders and support providers in new suburbs we operate in. With our 475 new tenancies, came the need to recruit new staff to manage tenancies and to renovate existing office space to accommodate our growing team all while delivering ongoing quality service to our existing 1,700 strong resident population.
