What is specialist disability accommodation (SDA)?
Specialist disability accommodation (SDA) is for people who need to live in a home that’s built for high levels of support. Our SDA homes in Western Sydney are comfortable, modern and designed to help you live as independently as possible. We talk with you about what you need and what you want from your home. Then, together, we find a place that feels right for you. Our team will help you move in, settle down and make your new home your own.

Steps to finding the right SDA housing in Western Sydney
How to pay for SDA
NDIS funding information
Specialist disability accommodation is funded by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) when you need to live in a home with a high level of support.
When the NDIS reviews your plan, it looks at what supports you need in your home and whether SDA is the right option for your situation. SDA is funded when it provides a better outcome for your support needs than other housing options alone.
You might discuss things like:
- The supports you need in your home
- Your accessibility needs and any required modifications
- Assessments or reports you provide
- The level of person-to-person support you need
- Other housing or living options that might suit you
- Value for money for your plan
We can help you understand what this means and guide you through the steps to get SDA funding approved.
Board and lodging
NDIS SDA funding is for the house itself. It does not include everyday living costs such as rent, food or bills. These can be paid using your Disability Support Pension,Commonwealth Rent Assistance, or other income sources.
We make it simple to understand what’s included and what’s not included, so you can plan with confidence.

How much SDA costs depends on your NDIS funding and support needs. We will give you a personalised quote and make it easy to understand any out-of-pocket contributions and how to use your plan to cover costs.
