Rent calculator for community housing providers

Open the rent calculator

Our rent calculator helps you calculate rent for your tenants.

The rent calculator doesn't save tenant or household details—it only calculates rent.

We update the rent calculator regularly to reflect changes to Rent Assistance and Family Tax Benefit rates paid by Services Australia.

Before using the calculator, collect the details of assessable income for all household members.
