In February 2025, approximately 9,135 building approvals were issued for houses in the private sector in Australia. The number of private house building approvals reached a peak in March 2021 at over 15,870 approvals.
The dashboard was created following a Council direction to monitor both Planning Act application approvals and building permits issued for new dwellings. Since Q1 2023, City staff have been reporting these figures quarterly to the Planning and Housing Committee in the Residential Dwelling Approvals Pipeline as a PDF. The new housing approvals dashboard replaces the Residential Dwelling Approvals Pipeline PDF reports and presents data in a more accessible, engaging, and user-friendly format that is more readily available to residents, developers, and housing stakeholders across the city. The housing approvals dashboard indicators reflect the full housing development pipeline, from planning approvals to building permits, dwelling construction starts, dwelling construction completions, as well as Planning Act application timelines. The housing approvals dashboard visuals are interactive, allowing users to explore trends by ward, dwelling type, and time period.Key indicators include:Number of dwellings approved through planning applicationsDwellings that are issued a building permit for constructionDwellings under constructionDwelling construction starts and completions, also referred to as housing starts and completionsMonitoring of Planning Act applications on Council approved timelines
The total number of residential building approvals in the private sector in Australia reached around 15,620 in February 2025. Among all building approvals for dwellings that month, approximately 9,135 were for houses.

The monthly Building Approvals (BAPS) collection collects data relating to residential and non-residential building work above certain value limits that have been approved within the reference month. Data from this collection provides timely estimates of future building activity and is an important leading economic indicator. It also provides the sampling framework for the quarterly Building Activity Survey, which is a major contributor to the quarterly National Accounts estimates.
Dataset provides the # and $ of building approvals (residential and non-residential). This is a measure of economic development for Regional WA, noting that an approval may not necessarily translate to construction and therefore a notice should be applied.

This dataset presents details of buildings works approved in Australia for the 2019-2020 financial year. The data has been aggregated and presented by Local Government Areas (LGA) 2019 boundaries. Statistics of building work approved are compiled from: permits issued by local government authorities and other principal certifying authorities; contracts let or day labour work authorised by commonwealth, state, semi-government and local government authorities; and major building approvals in areas not subject to normal administrative approval e.g. building on remote mine sites. The scope of the collection comprises the following: construction of new buildings; alterations and additions to existing buildings; approved non-structural renovation and refurbishment work; and approved installation of integral building fixtures. The statistics include all approved residential building valued at $10,000 or more and all approved non-residential building valued at $50,000 or more.

Housing permit data is derived from reports and publications compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau's Residential Construction Statistics Division. Municipalities provide the U.S. Census Bureau with tabulations of the number of housing units authorized, according to types of structures. In the few cases where municipalities reported building permit approvals for some months but not for all 12 months, the U.S. Census Bureau estimates the total yearly number of units approved based on past years’ approvals.
The number of residential units, net of losses, approved by month.
This is the sum of residential units approved minus the units lost from planning permissions granted during the given month, as entered onto the London Development Database (LDD).
The figures include all submitted schemes, including those that replace earlier permissions on the same site or add details to previous outline permissions.
For this reason the monthly totals are comparable but the numbers can not be added to get a running total. Note that data is provided by the London Boroughs who are responsible for the quality of the data.
Borough data is not always submitted on time so the totals shown are subject to change as the data are checked and missing permissions are added.
The CSV file is automatically updated on the 1st day of every month.
