We are partnering with RMIT University on a research project to try to improve the comfort and energy efficiency of rental housing in Darebin. 

We want to hear from you about your experience of living in or owning a rental home. We want to know - how comfortable is your rental home? Have you or your landlord made any improvements, like stopping drafts or installing new appliances? 

Whether it’s fixing broken appliances, stopping draughts, installing blinds or a split system air-conditioner, or some other improvement you’ve made (or wish you could make), we are interested in hearing about your experience.

What's involved

  • An initial online interview 
  • A FREE home energy efficiency assessment
  • A brief follow-up interview

Participants will receive a $50 Coles-Myer gift voucher to thank you for your time.
