Rehome Roots places quality transportable homes with people who have lost theirs, on an affordable rent-to-buy agreement. Repayments fund the next home.
Emergency housing runs out. A rent-to-buy home does the opposite — it ends with you owning something. That is the whole point of the model.
A detailed application covering your housing need, income, history and what you can realistically afford. This is Stage 1 — it starts a conversation, it is not a lease.
We look at genuine need and at whether the agreement would be sustainable for you. Being turned down for a mortgage is not a barrier here.
A modular, expandable or off-grid transportable home, sited on host land or land we secure. Built to Australian standards, not a temporary shelter.
Affordable repayments set against your capacity. When the home is repaid, ownership transfers to you.
We are a young charity and demand is far greater than what we can currently place. We cannot give you a wait time, and we will not pretend otherwise. Applying puts you in front of us properly, so that when a home becomes available we already know your situation. If your housing need is urgent tonight, please also contact Link2Home on 1800 152 152, which operates 24 hours.
The application is detailed and takes time. You can read our privacy policy before you start.
A home needs somewhere to go. If you have space you are not using — a paddock corner, a back block, a spare parcel — you can put it to work housing someone, at no cost to you.
You are offering your land, and you will live alongside whoever lives there. We think it would be wrong to hand you a stranger. We do the assessment, the agreements and the management — you decide who you are comfortable with.
A short form. No commitment — it starts a conversation about whether your site would work.
These are not sheds, shipping containers or emergency pods. They are insulated, double-glazed, engineered homes designed to be lived in permanently.
Engineered steel frame, insulated wall panels and double-glazed windows. Designed to meet Australian requirements, with engineering certification as part of placement.
Solar, water tanks and composting options where mains services are not available — which opens up land that would otherwise be unusable.
Because they are transportable, a home can be moved if circumstances change. The asset is never stranded.
You can still help. Every home we place is funded by donations and partnerships — and because repayments cycle back, your support keeps working long after the first family moves in.
