WHAT MAKES SDA DIFFERENT TO ANY OTHER INVESTMENT PROPERTY?

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) refers to a specific type of investment property in Australia that is designed to provide housing for individuals with significant disabilities. SDA properties are purpose-built to meet the specific needs of people with disabilities, including features such as wheelchair accessibility, assistive technology, and support services.

WHY IS THE RETURN HIGHER WITH AN SDA INVESTMENT PROPERTY?

The return on investment (ROI) for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) properties can potentially be higher compared to traditional investment properties due to several factors including government funding and longer lease terms.

It's important to note that the actual return on SDA investments can vary depending on factors such as location, property quality, management, and market conditions.

WHAT MAKES SDA A GOOD INVESTMENT?

SDA is a great investment opportunity due to the growing demand for high-quality disability accommodation. The long-term government-backed NDIS funding and the secure rental income make it a stable investment option.

WHAT COSTS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH MAINTENANCE?

The costs associated with SDA property maintenance can vary depending on the specific property and its needs. Some common maintenance costs associated with SDA properties may include house maintenance and repairs, insurances and property management.

DOES THE RENT INCREASE?

The rent for SDA properties is typically set by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and is based on the specific design category of the property and the level of support required by the tenant. The rent for SDA properties is generally higher than traditional rental properties due to the specialised design and accessibility features required.

The NDIS periodically reviews the rent for SDA properties and adjusts it based on changes in the market and the cost of providing support services. 

ARE THERE DISADVANTAGES OF OWNING A SDA PROPERTY?

While there are many potential benefits to owning an SDA investment property, there are also some potential disadvantages to consider. Some of the disadvantages of owning an SDA investment property may include higher upfront costs and higher management costs.

IS IT EASY TO FIND TENANTS?

Finding SDA tenants can vary depending on the location and demand for SDA properties in a specific area. In some areas with a high demand for SDA housing, it may be relatively easier to find SDA tenants. However, in areas with limited SDA housing options or lower demand, it may be more challenging to find suitable tenants.

WHAT HAPPENS IF TENANTS DAMAGE THE PROPERTY?

If an SDA tenant damages the property, the responsibility for repairs and maintenance typically falls on the tenant. However, it's important to note that the specific terms and conditions regarding repairs and damages should be outlined in the tenancy agreement between the landlord and the tenant.
