What is SDA?
Homes developed specifically for people with severe functional impairments or significant support needs are referred to as specialist disability accommodations, or SDAs. You may learn more about the amenities that support independence and safety for those with disabilities in SDA homes here.
Why is SDA in Demand?
The demand for these accommodations has been on the rise due to the growing number of NDIS participants and the limited number of existing homes that meet these specific needs. Investors and providers look closely at SDA demand data to identify underserved areas where new housing can be developed to better serve participants.
SDA Supply in NSW
New South Wales continues to be a major source of worry, with an estimated 4,000 SDA spots undersupplied by 2027. This deficiency is most noticeable in Sydney and the surrounding regions, where expansion has been impeded by high building prices and land scarcity.
SDA Supply in Victoria
In Victoria, the inner suburbs of Melbourne have an undersupply, according to SDA demand statistics. This offers developers a great chance to construct in places where there is still a significant demand for SDA real estate, particularly in cities where the number of NDIS members is increasing.
SDA Supply in Queensland
However, the SDA demand maps for Queensland paint a totally different picture, with oversupply in places like Logan and Ipswich. When investing in oversaturated markets, where new construction may have trouble finding tenants, investors should exercise caution.
