Managing Construction

When you’ve chosen your house and land package and have finance in place, we’ll engage the builder and manage the build process for you.

We work with a panel of builders who are experienced in delivering high quality SDA homes. We've worked closely with them to ensure they understand the intricacies of SDA and what's required to ensure a compliant build.

SDA Certification and Enrolment

All SDA homes must be enroled with the NDIS in order for SDA payments to be claimed for tenants. To be enroled, a home must have SDA design standard certification from an accredited third party SDA assessor.

The SDA Design Standard outlines the detailed design requirements for newly built SDA properties seeking enrolment under the NDIS.

Once your home is complete, we engage the assessor and ensure your home is certified and enroled with the NDIS.

Tenanting Your Home

Prior to completion, our in-house team at The Disability Housing Centre will start seeking eligible NDIS participants for your home. We often have waiting lists for popular areas and tenants ready to move in on the home’s completion.

Once the home is complete, we'll arrange home viewings as required and work with SILs (Supported Independent Living) providers to help match tenants and ensure the smooth transition of tenants into your home.

Managing Your Property

We'll also ensure your home is well maintained, that the home is regularly inspected and any maintenance issues addressed. 

As a registered NDIS Provider we’ll collect participants' NDIS SDA funding on your behalf and disperse payments and your rental income to you.

Want to understand more about SDA?

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is housing designed especially for people living with disability, in particular with extreme functional impairment or very high care needs.

 

What is the demand for SDA?
It’s estimated that more than 36,000 people will require Specialist Disability Accommodation by 2042 (NDIS Demand Projections Report September 2023).
Why is the income so high?
Due to the growing demand for SDA, the Australian Government is encouraging private investment in disability housing by providing funding to participants through the NDIS. For homes that meet the NDIS SDA Design Standard and are enrolled with the NDIS, this funding is then passed on to property owners as rental income. Delivering certified SDA homes is our area of expertise.
How much does it cost to invest?
SDA Smart Homes house and land package start at $1.3m as a guide. SMSF investment options are available.
How do you decide where to build your SDA homes?
We use industry knowledge and NDIS SDA demand data to determine where the best locations are to build SDA Smart Homes. We also draw use valuable tenant and SILs (Supported Independent Living providers) through our in-house tenanting division.

What our investors say:

"We're extremely happy with our new home and how it will change the lives of those with a disability. We cannot wait to do our next one in the new year. Thank you to your team for holding our hands the whole way through the process.
