Upgrade Your SDA Funding
Upgrade Your Lifestyle

A look at where you’re
living now

Let’s start with a few important questions about your current accommodation.

Is it the best possible place for you?
Is it really suitable for your requirements?
Would an upgrade to a brand-new, modern SDA home make more sense?

Improve your living arrangements with upgraded SDA funding

The good news is there are alternative accommodation options available that can provide you with all the current benefits you’re used to and a lot more.

In most instances, this will require you to apply for upgraded SDA funding from the NDIA, but once approved, you can upgrade to better living conditions in a new InPlace Living home where you’ll experience more freedom, greater choice and better lifestyle opportunities.
