At Swift Walk, you’ll live in a secure, thoughtfully managed building with room for your whole household; whether that’s a growing family, a single parent with kids, or a group of housemates ready to put down roots together.
Register your interestAssemble participates in a government-backed initiative that enables us to offer quality rental homes at a significantly reduced rate.
Our responsible pricing model means eligible households pay reduced rent at Swift Walk.
For qualified renters, the rent is set at a rate that is, at a minimum, 25% lower than the market rent for the same home.

We carefully match families and households to homes that suit their size and circumstances.
Our goal is simple:reduce rental stress by giving familiesgenuine access to well-designed, secure, andprofessionally managed homes that reflect what they can actually afford.
For families in particular, we know that stability matters as much as affordability.
That’s why we offer longer-term lease options, giving households the kind of security that lets you enrol kids in a local school, put down roots in a neighbourhood, and plan your life with confidence rather than counting down to your next lease renewal.
Residents can expect safe, secure, and conveniently located homes in a vibrant neighbourhood, thoughtfully designed for families, housemates, key workers, and those who’ve found it increasingly difficult to secure a foothold in the private rental market.
Offering reduced rents on quality, inner-city homes is an investment in the kind of neighbourhood where families can genuinely thrive.
Diverse, connected communities are built when people from all walks of life can afford to live in them. That’s exactly what we’re building at Swift Walk, Kensington.
To be eligible for an Assemble home at reduced rents, you need to meet the following criteria:
Your income must be at or below specific income thresholds set by the government, depending on your household makeup.
We currently have availability for families, housemates, and single-parent households. Studio and 1-bedroom homes for singles, and homes for couples, are now fully allocated.
| Household | Single | Couple | Family |
|---|---|---|---|
| Income | $73,317 | $109,976 | $153,396* |
| Income excludes SGC |
|---|
Income may be made up of wages from employment, government benefits, child support payments, and other sources. Income for eligibility assessment does not include Superannuation Guarantee Contributions (SGC).
You will need to provide evidence that confirms your household income, while all the usual checks that are relevant when applying for a rental, like rental history and references, are considered too.
*Note: Assemble have also set a single parent income threshold, within the Government income bands, at $115,000.
| Household | Maximum Income | Studio | 1 Bed | 2 Bed | 3 Bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single | $73,317 | Fully Allocated | Fully Allocated | n/a | n/a |
| Couple / 2 People | $109,976 | n/a | Fully Allocated | Fully Allocated | n/a |
| Single Parent Family | $115,000* | n/a | n/a | from $465 pw | Fully Allocated |
| Family / Group | $153,396 | n/a | n/a | from $562 pw | from $746 pw |
| Income excludes Superannuation Guarantee Contributions |

If your household income exceeds these bands, you can still become part of a community that values people for more than their income.
We have market rate apartments available now at Swift Walk, with the same quality design, community focus, and professional management that makes renting with Assemble special.
