Our strategic plan 2026-2031

Our strategic plan sets out our direction for the next 5 years, building on the strong foundations of our previous plan, and putting renters at the heart of everything we do.

Our vision is that Victorian renters experience dignity living in safe, secure and affordable homes.

We will drive higher standards for fairer renting across Victoria, as the centre of excellence that connects renters to support and shares insights and expertise with government, rental providers and organisations.
