This data is intended for the purpose of SDA market oversight only. There is no guarantee from the NDIA that all the dwellings listed will be enrolled as SDA or that it will be enrolled as the same building type and design category as what is in the SDA pipeline data. The NDIA decides whether to enrol a dwelling when an SDA provider submits a completed application to enrol, after the dwelling is built. The NDIA won't enrol a dwelling if the provider and the dwelling don't meet all of the requirements for enrolment under the SDA Rules at the time of the decision. This is regardless of any previous assessment, feedback or certification provided by the NDIA or any other party. There may also be under-construction properties which are intended to be enrolled as SDA which are not represented in the data. The NDIA works to maintain clean and robust data on pipeline dwellings by continually improving the quality of SDA pipeline data. This includes removing dwellings from pipeline data that are already enrolled and, from 30 March 2026, removing dwellings that have not progressed to enrolment within 36 months. There may be delays in excluding enrolled SDA dwellings from SDA pipeline data. This may result in SDA pipeline numbers being overstated in a given reporting period.
