Steps to finding the right SDA housing
How to pay for SDA
NDIS funding information
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) funds specialist disability accommodation for people who need to live in a specially designed home with higher support needs.
When the NDIS reviews your plan, it looks at what supports you need and whether SDA is the right option for you. Funding is approved when SDA offers better outcomes for your disability support needs than other housing options.
You might discuss:
- What supports you need at home
- Accessibility or design features that help you
- Any reports or assessments you have
- The level of support you need each day
- Other housing or living options that may work
- What value for money means for your situation
Our team can explain how this works and help you understand if NDIS SDA accommodation in Sydney is right for you.
Board and lodging
NDIS SDA funding only covers the cost of the home itself. Other living costs, like rent, food and utilities, can be paid using your Disability Support Pension, Commonwealth Rent Assistance or other income.
We’ll make sure you understand what’s included and what’s not, so planning your move feels simple.

We provide disability housing in Sydney that includes fully accessible homes, high physical support options and shared living spaces. Every home is designed to meet your needs.
SDA funding covers the home itself. Other supports like personal care or help with daily living are arranged separately. We can assist with supported independent living (SIL) if you need extra support at home.
Costs depend on your NDIS plan and support needs. We’ll give you a clear, easy-to-understand quote so you know what’s covered and any extra costs.
