About SDA Home Choices
The specialist behind SDA transactions in Australia.
SDA Home Choices is an independent advisory and transactions firm working exclusively in Specialist Disability Accommodation. We help investors, providers, boards, lenders and family offices buy, sell and reposition SDA assets with commercial clarity the sector has rarely had.
What we do
We advise on the sale, acquisition and strategic review of SDA properties and portfolios, from individual dwellings to institutional holdings. Our work spans vendor due diligence, buyer representation, and independent commercial assessment of whether to hold, improve, reposition or sell.
Why specialist
SDA is a niche, maturing market where headline funding and fully occupied forecasts can obscure real performance. We focus on the operating evidence that actually drives occupancy, income sustainability and capital value, and we do nothing else.
Backed by research
Our transaction work is supported by dedicated SDA research, including the SDA Market Report 2026, combining public NDIS data with proprietary transaction evidence across every Australian jurisdiction.
