    Cheap is Expensive! Don't make this common mistake...

    Don't make the mistake of shopping for an SDA provider based on how cheap they are. Being an SDA provider is EXPENSIVE! If you're trying to drive margins down you're setting yourself up for a lot of pain later. Listen to the full conversation in Episode 36 of The DHS Difference

    Basically group therapy for SDA providers

    What a wide ranging and informative conversation! Last time we caught up with Nicole and Goro from Empowered Liveability I commented that it was nice to hear they were having some of the same challenges as DHS. In episode 36 the conversation bridged that gap and ended up in a kind of SDA provider cathartic therapy download! Kind of funny, kind of not... Our experiences are reflective of other SDA providers out there. It's so important that your SDA provider is a stable, secure and profitable business. Impacts of providers failing are quite severe and can cause a ripple of impacts that lasts for months or years. If you're still looking for an SDA provider to manage your portfolio, if you're a participant and not happy with your current provider or if you're one of the many other critical stakeholders in this part of the NDIS, this episode is a great one...

    You probably don't have the right SDA insurance...sorry

    LANDLORDS! Standard landlord insurance was never designed for SDA. So what happens when something goes wrong?

    Standard landlord insurance was never designed for SDA. So what happens when something goes wrong? In episode 35 we speak with CJ, an experienced insurance broker who is also an SDA owner and investor. Drawing on both sides of the table, CJ breaks down the real risks landlords face in SDA that many investors overlook. From tenant related risk and property damage through to the gaps that can exist in traditional insurance policies, we explore why SDA presents a unique risk profile and why new insurance products designed specifically for disability housing may be needed. If you own SDA, are considering investing, or work in the sector, this conversation sheds light on the realities of protecting these specialised homes.

    When switching SDA providers is the only viable option

    Episode 35 of The DHS Difference. Switching SDA providers is often treated as a last resort, but in some cases it is the only commercially and operationally viable path forward. In this episode, David and Lauren unpack when a provider switch makes sense, the warning signs that indicate an arrangement is no longer sustainable, and the risks involved if transitions are handled poorly. They discuss the operational, financial, and participant impacts that need to be considered before any change is made. This is a practical conversation for owners, providers, and stakeholders navigating underperforming SDA arrangements and trying to stabilise outcomes without creating further disruption. #SpecialistDisabilityAccommodation#SDAHousing#NDISProviders#SILProviders#SDAOperations#DisabilityHousing

    Why most SDA properties struggle to secure the right tenant match

    Watch the full episode 35 of The DHS Difference for the whole conversation. Tenant matching in SDA is often misunderstood as a leasing function, when in reality it is a complex operational and system wide process. In this episode, David and Lauren break down why many SDA properties experience prolonged vacancies despite apparent demand, including design mismatches, referral pathways, provider readiness, and unrealistic assumptions made during feasibility. This conversation is aimed at unpacking why tenant procurement is one of the most underestimated risks in SDA and what needs to be in place for matching to work in practice, not just on paper. #SpecialistDisabilityAccommodation#SDAHousing#NDISTenants#SDAOperations#DisabilityHousing#SILProviders

    Why SDA provider switches are increasing and what usually triggers them

    Episode 34 of The DHS Difference. Provider switches in SDA are becoming more common, but they rarely happen without a long lead up of structural pressure. In this episode, David and Lauren explore the most common triggers behind provider changes, including misaligned expectations, operational strain, funding realities, and design or procurement decisions made early in the project lifecycle. The discussion focuses on recognising patterns before relationships break down and understanding why many switches are not about performance alone, but about system design and risk transfer. #SpecialistDisabilityAccommodation#SDAProviders#SILProviders#NDISHousing#SDAOperations#DisabilitySector
