Podcasts about SDA

Data, Design, and Desirability - represent a core framework used by experienced investors and advisors to analyze, select, and drive long-term success in SDA within the NDIS market.Data refers to the rigorous quantitative and qualitative analysis that underpins every sound SDA investment decision:Current and projected demand for SDA by region, participant demographics, and NDIS eligibility trends.Vacancy rates, supply pipeline, dwelling approvals, recent sales, and rental yields.Government policy changes, pricing reviews, and NDIS funding adjustments impacting SDA income sustainability.A strong data-driven approach helps investors avoid oversupplied areas, understand realistic return scenarios, and identify growth corridors where SDA demand will strengthen over the medium term.Design means the architectural and functional quality of the SDA dwelling itself, ensuring it meets and exceeds NDIS requirements and participant expectations. Key factors include:SDA Design Category (Improved Liveability, Robust, Fully Accessible, High Physical Support).Versatility, durability, and future-proofing for changing participant needs, such as adaptable kitchens, bathrooms, and emergency features.Design excellence ensures homes attract and retain participants, maximize occupancy, and support long-term value protection for investors.Desirability captures the appeal of the SDA property for both participants and support providers, encompassing emotional, lifestyle, and locational value. Important factors include:Proximity to amenities, health services, transport, recreation, and community integration opportunities.Properties that score highly on desirability are easier to fill, experience fewer vacancies, and often attract above-average NDIS funding outcomes over time.------------------------LEAVE US A GOOGLE REVIEW!SDA ADVISORY SERVICEShttps://www.sdaadvisory.com.auSDA RESEARCH REPORTShttps://ndis.property/reportsEBOOKS:www.robustdesign.com.auwww.highphysicalsupport.com.auwww.improvedliveability.com.auwww.fulSend us a textNDIS PROPERTY AUSTRALIA:Our team conducts thorough research on Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) and provides appropriate technical advice through premium and strategy-based solutions.

We finish this series with a personal testimony by Pastor Jinha Kim

In this episode, Debbie welcomes back Kevin Chen from Paramount Disability Homes for a conversation about the status of the Victorian Government NDIS Housing Crisis. This major crisis is unfolding in Victoria as state government subsidies for group home support workers which have already ended at the end of 2023, have leases for these properties set to expire on 31st December 2025. This impacts approximately 5,000 NDIS participants currently residing in 600 to 700 state government-owned group homes, many of which were grandfathered into the SDA system as 'Basic' level dwellings as early as 2016, lacking modern accessibility features (not meeting IL, FA, Robust, or HPS standards). These homes have operated since pre-NDIS times (before 2013), with residents often being in their 50s and 60s, having lived there for 20-30 years with the same support workers. A significant hurdle is inadequate funding. Undertaking plan reviews for 5,000 people to get funding uplifted is a massive operational challenge, with no clear process or guarantee of success. There's a risk participants could be rejected or have their SDA funding removed entirely, especially if they are elderly, leaving them with even fewer housing options. While there is an oversupply of new SDA properties in Melbourne's outer suburbs (northern, southeastern, and predominantly western), the affected participants, who have lived in inner and middle-ring areas for years, wish to remain in their current locations. Providers moving to outer areas risk losing many clients. Furthermore, support workers are reluctant to travel to these outer suburbs. The inner areas, where most group homes are situated, have a greater abundance of apartments than houses, limiting suitable housing options. This geographical gap between where the housing is and where the demand is, particularly for houses over apartments, is a major barrier to relocating the thousands of displaced residents, as the NDIS is not expected to universally uplift funding for basic-funded participants anytime soon.For investors with empty SDAs around Melbourne, more specifically, by taking on tenants with lower initial funding, investors can secure occupancy while helping residents, with the long-term potential of significantly higher rental income once the participant's SDA funding is successful.-------------------------Send us a textNDIS PROPERTY AUSTRALIA:Our team conducts thorough research on Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) and provides appropriate technical advice through premium and strategy-based solutions.

SIL Landscape: Challenges and IssuesA significant challenge for SIL providers is the increasing difficulty in matching participants to vacancies for sustainable, long-term placements.Many providers lack the resources or contacts with other SIL providers or support coordinators to effectively find suitable participants for their vacancies.Providers face substantial financial pressure when vacancies exist, especially when they have multiple SIL houses but only one resident, making it difficult to maintain financial viability.Incorrect support ratios (e.g., a participant funded at a one-to-two or one-to-three ratio but requiring more intensive support) lead to providers operating at a loss.Directors of SIL providers are experiencing stress due to:Insufficient participant placements compared to available facilities, leading to houses with low occupancy.Mismatched funding ratios, forcing providers to operate at a loss when the actual support needs exceed the funded ratio.Rushed or hospital discharge scenarios becoming concerning trend:Providers are reluctantly transferring participants to hospitals, often as a "social admission," when funding or staffing is inadequate to safely support them in the SIL environment. This is particularly prevalent when participants are not funded for the supports needed to ensure their own safety, that of their housemates, or support workers.This practice, though undesirable, is sometimes the only way to prompt a timely review of home & living decisions by the NDIS.Importance of correct ratios in funding and service delivery is critical:SIL funding is strictly capped at the approved ratio in the participant's plan, meaning providers cannot claim for support exceeding this ratio, even if more intensive care (e.g., one-on-one 24/7 support) is required.Providers often operate at a loss when providing additional support that exceeds approved ratios, as they can only claim for the funded ratioSignificant communication gap exists between support coordinators and NDIS planners regarding market realities:Planners often lack direct insight into the day-to-day challenges faced by SIL providers and the realities of the housing market, relying on anecdotal reports rather than direct observation.Funding cuts directly impact both service quality & provider financial viability, yet planners making these decisions may not fully grasp the on-the-ground consequences for providers & participants--------------Send us a textNDIS PROPERTY AUSTRALIA:Our team conducts thorough research on Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) and provides appropriate technical advice through premium and strategy-based solutions.

An introductory case for creation, first of special series

In this episode, Debbie sits down with Denise & Lenore from our Data and Research team to review the recently released Housing Hub Accessible Housing and Support Data Snapshot June 2025.They take a look at the Housing Hub figures and what the tell us about what housing seekers are actually looking for, versus what properties are available through the Housing Hub search portal.As of the March quarter, there are 24,761 participants with SDA funding (the NDIS report released mid-August notes 25,057 as of end June), and $542 million in plan funding, which has recently increased to $560 million. This is still below the original $700 million estimate from nearly 10 years ago, indicating that participants are not utilising their plans or funding, and are unable to access the right accommodation.The Housing Hub Data Snapshot highlights a significant undersupply of single-resident dwellings or for one resident with family: 53% of listings allow living alone or with family, but nearly 75% of seekers desire this. 45% wish to live alone, & 29% with family, indicating growing demand for Appendix H arrangements. This highlights that while listings may not offer the opportunity, it can be requested from property providers, though many SDA providers still don't fully understand Appendix H, and SIL providers face financial difficulties in providing care for single participants.Demand vs. Supply Discrepancy: The data shows that while 52% of listings allow seekers to live by themselves or with family, nearly 75% of seekers wish to live alone or with family. This indicates a significant demand for single-resident dwellings that is not being met by current listings.Appendix H Misunderstanding: Appendix H is a provision that allows participants to live with family and others, but many investors & providers do not fully understand its implications. They may perceive it as financially unviable etcFinancial Viability: Providers may face financial challenges in offering single-resident dwellings. The care provision model often involves sharing care among multiple participants, which can be more financially sustainable.  Geographical Mismatch: There is a disconnect in an oversupply in some areas and an undersupply in others, including single-resident dwellings. Participants often struggle to find suitable accommodation in their preferred locations.> Access Snapshot

For information, books or if you would like to make a love donation, please visit us at https://www.walkinginpower.orgThe text critiques Seventh-day Adventism (SDA), classifying it as a cult despite outward Christian appearance. Dr. Bern Zumpano rejects Walter Martin's later acceptance of SDA, insisting its doctrines distort the gospel.Cult Traits & SDA's Claim Like other cults, SDA claims exclusive truth, identifying itself as the true remnant church. Though it uses Christian vocabulary, Dr. Bern Zumpano argues it lacks biblical substance.Size & Reach SDA has millions of members, tens of thousands of churches, publishing houses, schools, hospitals, and global media outlets, making its influence significant.Origins & Authority Founded by William Miller after failed prophecies of Christ's return in 1844 (“Great Disappointment”), the movement gained momentum under Ellen G. White, considered an inspired prophetess. Between 1845–1915, she claimed over 2,000 visions and authored 54 books, which—alongside the Bible—form SDA's doctrinal foundation. This dual authority undermines sola scriptura, with Dr. Bern Zumpano warning her teachings are confused and misleading.Doctrinal Errors Salvation: SDA claims salvation by grace through faith but redefines grace as empowerment to keep the law, making works and character-building essential. This contradicts Scripture, which declares salvation as God's gift, not of works (Eph. 2:8–9). SDA's Clear Word Bible is criticized as a rewritten text supporting their theology. Sabbath keeping: White taught Sabbath observance was instituted at creation and marks loyalty to God, while Sunday worship is branded Antichrist. Dr. Bern Zumpano argues the Sabbath was given only to Israel; Christians now rest in Christ (Heb. 4:9–10). The early church worshiped on Sunday to honor the resurrection. Binding Sabbath law is viewed as unscriptural and divisive. Other Doctrines: Investigative Judgment, Soul Sleep, and Annihilation of the Wicked are also condemned, especially the investigative judgment, which leaves believers uncertain of salvation. Conclusion Dr. Bern Zumpano concludes SDA's gospel is not Christianity. While many Adventists are sincere and zealous, they are misled. True salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, by Scripture and Spirit alone.

For information, books or if you would like to make a love donation, please visit us at https://www.walkinginpower.orgThis critique classifies Seventh-day Adventism (SDA) as a cult, despite its Christian language and global reach. Rooted in William Miller's failed 1844 prophecy, the movement was shaped by Ellen G. White, who claimed thousands of visions and whose writings form SDA's doctrinal foundation alongside the Bible. The speaker argues this dual authority undermines “sola scriptura.” Key heresies include redefining salvation as faith plus works, requiring law-keeping for holiness, and elevating Sabbath observance as eternally binding, while condemning Sunday worship as Antichrist. These teachings contradict scripture, which presents salvation as a gift by grace through faith in Christ alone and identifies Sunday worship with Christ's resurrection. Other disputed doctrines include investigative judgment, soul sleep, and annihilation of the wicked. While many Adventists are sincere, the speaker insists their doctrine is not Christian truth and stresses salvation comes solely through Christ, not human works or extra-biblical authority.

Gros plan sur l'une des principales officines russes dans le domaine des ingérences numériques : la Social Design Agency s'est fait dérober une masse de données en ligne. Ces fuites en disent long sur le dispositif informationnel du Kremlin.
