Core business

UDIA claims to be the housing development industry’s most broad representative, with more than 4,500 member companies: global enterprises, consultants, local governments, and small-scale developers, who inform and define UDIA's state-representative National Council. The organisation engages with Federal, State and Local Governments and their agencies on issues critical to the industry – covering tax, population, infrastructure, land use planning and beyond.{{Cite web |title=About UDIA National |url=https://udia.com.au/about/ |access-date=2023-01-17 |website=UDIA National |language=en-US}}
