Land lease community residents, have your say!

Survey: Living in Residential Land Lease Communities

Researchers at the University of New South Wales and the University of Swinburne are studying consumers’ experiences of housing and housing financialisation in residential parks and rental villages.

They are looking for residents to complete a short (20 minute) online survey. After completing the survey you can opt in to the prize draw and have a chance to win one of five $500 vouchers. There is also an opportunity to be interviewed. Interviewees will be thanked with a $50 gift voucher.

The project has been approved by the UNSW Human Research Ethics Committee (HC220529).

For more information and to do the survey go to: unsw.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_ctLCMIm05vU9xWe
