Balranald Shire Council
An approval is not a home. Lodgd follows every application in Balranald Shire Council through to what gets built.
235 applications on record · 1 planning proposals · 2,244 people (2025 ABS estimate) · 733 occupied dwellings (2021 Census)
Housing determined since 1 July 2024
38 homes have been determined here
Counted from the applications that state a number of new homes. Where an application does not state one, it is not read as a zero. A home decided twice at the same address is counted once.
NSW’s housing target
Balranald Shire Council has no council-level target.
Outside the four target areas. Covered by the single 55,000-home regional NSW allocation, which NSW does not break down by council.
Approved is not built
Across NSW, only 57% of homes determined reach construction within two years.
Lodgd matches every application to the construction certificates that follow it, site by site, across all 128 councils — so the pipeline can be read as what is likely to exist rather than what was lodged.
Try the free demo →Measured over 193,554 homes determined between July 2021 and November 2024 — every decision old enough to have had two full years to start.
Of every hundred homes NSW determines, this many have a construction certificate — building work can legally begin — within two full years.
