About the service
About Housing & Tenancy Support under the NDIS
Housing and tenancy support helps NDIS participants find and keep a home in the community. Instead of providing the property, providers help you search for accessible rentals, prepare applications, attend inspections, negotiate reasonable adjustments, and understand your rights as a tenant. Once you are settled, they help you sustain the tenancy through budgeting, setting up utilities, and resolving issues before they become a breach.
This category also covers Individualised Living Options (ILO), which design a support package around a living arrangement you choose, living alone with drop-in help, with a housemate, or with a host. It is usually funded under Capacity Building supports because the aim is greater independence over time. It is separate from SDA (which funds the dwelling) and SIL (which funds daily shared-living support). When comparing providers, look for local rental-market knowledge, experience advocating with agents and landlords, and a focus on you leading decisions about your own home.

How is housing and tenancy support funded under the NDIS?
It is generally funded under Capacity Building supports (Improved Living Arrangements), because the goal is to build your independence in finding and keeping a home. This is different from Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), which funds a specialised dwelling, and from Supported Independent Living (SIL), which funds ongoing daily support in shared housing.
Does the NDIS pay my rent?
No. The NDIS funds the support you need to find and sustain a tenancy, not the rent itself. Rent and everyday living costs are paid from your own income, often with help from mainstream supports such as Commonwealth Rent Assistance.
How do I choose a good tenancy support provider?
Look for local knowledge of the rental market, experience advocating with landlords and agents, and a focus on sustaining tenancies rather than one-off placements. Ask how they respond to a crisis such as rent arrears, and check they will work alongside your support coordinator and treat you as the decision-maker.
