SIL/ SDA Cost

When entering a SIL/SDA property, one of the most commonly asked questions is, what is the cost?

Service and Tenancy agreements can be a foreign area for anyone that is new to these services and without a transparent and detailed process, this can significantly impact placement.

When welcoming any new resident, a key part of our process is to share all Non-NDIS out-of-pocket expenses, to ensure residents are aware of all of the costs that will occur.

The costing table is as followed:

ItemCostPayment method
Rent – SDA25% of DSP plus 100% of Rental AssistancePaid by the NDIS to the SDA provider on behalf of the resident OR to residential tenancy agency
