Why Invest In NDIS Housing?
Investing in NDIS housing in Australia presents a twofold advantage, combining social impact with lucrative return on Investment.
With approximately $42 billion allocated to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) by the Australian Federal Government in 2024, the sector is poised for substantial growth and stability.
This property class provides a unique opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of vulnerable individuals while generating solid financial returns.
With investments ranging from $800,000 to several million dollars, investors can tailor their involvement to match their financial capacity and goals. Moreover, specialized service providers play a crucial role in managing these properties, ensuring tenants receive the necessary support and care.

FAQ's
-
What is NDIS real estate?
NDIS real estate refers to properties designed or adapted for participants in the National Disability Insurance Scheme.
There are three main types:
- Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA): purpose-built or heavily modified properties for participants with the highest support needs.
- Supported Independent Living (SIL): homes that provide support staff to assist residents with daily living, but the property itself may be more standard in design.
- NDIS-compliant general housing: regular residential properties that meet accessibility or safety standards and are suitable for participants who need a supportive living environment.
-
How do NDIS property requirements differ from standard residential properties?
NDIS housing must be designed or modified to support people with disability to live more independently. Depending on the property type, this may involve features such as step-free access, wider doorways, reinforced bathrooms, assistive technology, and emergency response systems.
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) must meet the NDIS SDA Design Standards, while other NDIS housing options (like Supported Independent Living (SIL) or Individualised Living Options (ILO)) still require accessibility and safety features tailored to participant needs.
-
How are NDIS properties valued?
Valuations consider both the physical property and its income potential through NDIS-funded tenancy arrangements. Factors include funding levels (such as SDA payments where relevant), occupancy history, provider agreements, lease terms, and location. Because demand is participant-driven, areas with strong NDIS housing needs often command higher valuations.
-
Can I buy an NDIS property without being a registered provider?
Yes. Many investors purchase properties that are NDIS-compliant (especially SDA) and lease them to registered providers, who then manage the housing and supports. However, for some arrangements such as SIL or ILO, the property may be owned by an ordinary landlord while the supports are delivered separately by providers.
-
What due diligence is required before buying an NDIS property?
You’ll need to verify that the property meets required standards (for SDA, this means formal certification), review existing or proposed lease agreements, assess local demand for NDIS housing, and investigate the provider’s reputation and financial strength. In Victoria, demand can vary suburb by suburb, so understanding participant demographics and waiting lists is critical.
-
What makes a location attractive for NDIS investment?
Strong demand, limited local supply, and proximity to essential services are key. In Victoria, areas close to hospitals, allied health services, public transport, and community facilities are most attractive. Regional centres with unmet demand can also provide strong opportunities, provided support providers are active locally.
-
Are NDIS properties high-yield investments?
They can be. SDA payments are often higher than market rent, and long-term leases may provide consistent income. However, not all NDIS housing delivers premium yields. Returns depend on compliance, participant demand, occupancy rates, and the strength of provider relationships.
-
Can existing homes be modified for NDIS compliance?
Yes. Many existing homes in Victoria have been upgraded for SDA or other NDIS housing uses. Modifications may include accessible bathrooms, ramps, widened doorways, or assistive technology. However, significant works are usually required for SDA certification, and not all properties are suitable for conversion.
-
Can NDIS properties be sold to non-NDIS investors?
Yes. While they can be sold on the open market, NDIS properties often hold higher value for NDIS-focused buyers due to the funding-backed income potential. For non-NDIS buyers, specialised features may not add as much value unless the home is repurposed.
