Tenant Mix and Its Impact on Your Investment Returns

The tenant mix plays a significant role in the performance of your SDA development. We focus on analysing the different types of tenants in SDA properties and their specific funding arrangements. For instance, properties with High Physical Support tenants in favourable locations can generate significant income.


Our analysis evaluates various tenant mixes and how these combinations will impact the financial returns of your investment. By considering realistic tenant scenarios, we provide detailed projections of income and cash flow, helping you understand how tenant diversity can affect the financial outcome of your SDA development. This insight allows for more accurate forecasting, preparing you for various tenancy scenarios.

SDA Data and Market Evaluation

Our service helps you analyse reliable SDA data to evaluate current market demand and predict future trends. We assess market shifts and changes in government funding to identify areas with growing demand and potential risks.


Our detailed analysis includes a SWOT assessment for each investment option, identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. This allows investors to make confident decisions by highlighting new opportunities, such as emerging government funding, and potential threats, like shifts in the market or regulatory changes.

Financial clarity is the foundation of any successful investment. We provide a transparent breakdown of all costs involved, from the very beginning of the project through to completion. Understanding the expected outlays at each stage of the development process allows investors to better manage their budget and prepare for any potential financial hurdles that may arise.


This financial plan also accounts for ongoing costs, such as maintenance and operational expenses, which are often overlooked in initial calculations. With a solid understanding of all these costs, you can approach the project with confidence, knowing that you are prepared for both expected and unforeseen expenses.



Investors who effectively use SDA demand data can maximise returns by targeting areas where new housing is most needed. For example, focusing on high-demand housing categories, such as homes designed for individuals with high physical support needs, ensures that developments address specific participant requirements.


It's equally important to consider future supply pipelines when planning SDA projects. In areas like Queensland, where oversupply is already an issue, ongoing development could further saturate the market, leading to high vacancy rates.


On the other hand, New South Wales’ projected shortfall suggests that even with planned developments, supply will continue to lag behind demand, creating continued investment opportunities.

Victoria’s inner suburbs and parts of South Australia are currently among the most promising regions for SDA investment. These areas show sustained demand for SDA housing, driven by growing populations of NDIS participants and limited existing supply. Investors who focus on these regions can better meet the needs of participants while achieving stronger financial outcomes.


Conversely, regions facing oversupply, such as Logan and Ipswich in Queensland, present a higher risk for new developments. Investors should carefully assess SDA demand data and future supply projections to avoid committing resources to areas where vacancy rates may rise.

Smart SDA investment starts with data. By carefully analysing demand data and supply projections, investors can identify areas where new housing is most needed and avoid oversaturated markets. Regions like Melbourne’s inner suburbs and parts of South Australia offer strong opportunities for growth, while areas with existing oversupply should be approached with caution.


For developers and investors, leveraging SDA demand data ensures that projects are aligned with long-term market trends, delivering both financial and social benefits.
