Property developers are being invited to submit proposals to develop three vacant parcels of government-owned land that could deliver hundreds of new homes in Sydney and the Central Coast.
The sites are earmarked to potentially deliver more than 350 homes in high-growth areas, subject to approval of development applications, and are currently zoned for low and medium-rise housing.
This is part of the NSW Government's plan to build a better NSW with more homes and services, so young people, families and key local workers have somewhere to live and in the communities they choose.
Property and Development NSW (PDNSW) has launched an Expressions of Interest (EOI) campaign, seeking formal proposals to develop sites at Box Road at Wakeley, Windsor Road at Rouse Hill, and Sparks Road at Wallarah.
The properties have been identified as part of the Government's statewide property audit, which has so far identified sites capable of delivering 7,100 homes.

Minister for Lands and Property Steve Kamper said:
"Our Government is making fantastic progress in identifying suitable land to address the housing crisis, and this latest EOI aims to deliver more than 350 homes to help people find a place to live.
"The Minns Government is focused on delivering, we need to ensure we are pulling every lever to
address this housing crisis.
"We welcome submissions from experienced developers to deliver housing across these three sites
at Wakeley, Rouse Hill and Wallarah."
Property and Development NSW Chief Executive Officer Leon Walker said:
"Property and Development NSW will conduct this EOI campaign until 23 April, when we will assess developer submissions on the best options to deliver housing on these three sites.
"The Government can't solve the housing crisis on its own, so we are calling on the capability of the residential development sector to deploy its capacity in partnership with the Government in respect to the three sites announced today.
"Alongside this campaign, Property and Development NSW is continuing the important work of identifying and assessing additional surplus government-owned sites that can be repurposed to help deliver more housing supply across the state."
