Our Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) project in Koondoola is progressing nicely toward its expected completion mid-2025. Designed for our client Habilitas to meet robust standards, and built by Cloudbreak WA, this development will provide three ‘forever homes’ to three residents and their OOAs (On-Site Overnight Assistance).
It looks like the specialist housing sector is leading the way in delivering genuine dwelling diversity, based on recent supply data for new disability accommodation. According to the NDIS quarterly report for the year to September, 60% of new SDA in the pipeline for Western Australia are detached houses, and the remainder is a variety of villas and apartments. It is also good to see WA’s share of planned new SDA dwellings has finally risen in line with its population. There are 755 SDA dwellings currently in the development pipeline in WA, which is 11% of the national supply pipeline. However there remains a significant shortfall in overall supply of SDA in WA.
