DISCLAIMER

SDA is complex and requires specialist knowledge to develop and operate. Those interested in investing in SDA are advised to consider and seek specialist advice in relation to the following items:

· Be wary of any claims that look too good to be true. For instance, be wary of suggested returns on investment that appear to be excessively high.

· Ensure that the dwelling has suitable planning approval from local government for the intended purpose.

· Ensure that the dwelling is certified to comply with the requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC).

· Ensure that the dwelling is audited and complies with the requirements of the NDIS SDA Design Guidelines and other requirements outlined in the SDA Price Guide.

· Ensure that the SDA Provider who will be providing ongoing management services is registered and also certified by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.

· Ensure the dwelling is in a location, is a dwelling type, design category and configuration for which which you are confident there is potential demand.

· Be aware that each individual NDIS Participant must be specifically approved for funding to live in SDA, and that the application process is comprehensive and takes time. Only around 6% of the total number of anticipated NDIS Participants at full NDIS rollout are expected to be found eligible for SDA.

· Be aware that the NDIA provides no guarantee that an SDA vacancy will be filled, and until an SDA approved Participant moves into the dwelling no SDA Payment will be made or received.
