SDA Homes

We build NDIS compliant Specialist Disability Accommodation, delivering high-quality, purpose-built homes that meet SDA design standards while maintaining the refined finish and execution quality our clients expect.

What Is Specialist Disability Accommodation?

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) provides purpose-built housing for individuals with extreme functional impairments or high support needs. These dwellings are designed with accessible features that support residents in living more independently and facilitate safer, more effective delivery of care.

SDA is government-funded under the National Disability Insurance Scheme, paid into eligible NDIS Participant Plans to fund the allocated capped rental fee. There are 4 design categories a build must meet to qualify for enrolment into the program:

Robust
